McCartney died on Friday night, peacefully surrounded by family, after a long battle with dementia, as confirmed by his family. Known as the winningest coach in Colorado's history, he compiled a record of 93-55-5 during his tenure from 1982 to 1994. Under his leadership, the Buffaloes won three Big Eight Conference titles and achieved 10 consecutive winning seasons.
