This Air Force Academy Hotel Includes a Flight Simulator
Opening this fall in Colorado Springs, the Hotel Polaris is taking a few cues from the institution it’s situated beside — namely, the U.S. Air Force Academy. A glimpse at the photos and renderings released of the hotel to date show a clean, classical design with plenty of natural light and views of the nearby landscape, including Pikes Peak. There’s also something that it will have that its peers do not: a flight simulator. Three of them, to be precise — and that’s set to make Hotel Polaris the only hotel with such an amenity in the United States.

Tad Boyle disrespected in On3 ranking of top Big 12 men’s basketball coaches
Not long after watching three of his players enter the NBA, longtime Colorado leader Tad Boyle was disrespected by On3 in an updated ranking of the Big 12’s top 10 men’s basketball coaches. The Buffs’ all-time wins leader was not featured among the conference’s top 10 coaches, selected by On3 associate editor James Fletcher III. Joining Boyle on the outside were Arizona State’s Bobby Hurley, Oklahoma State’s Steve Lutz, TCU’s Jamie Dixon, UCF’s Johnny Dawkins and Utah’s Craig Smith. Boyle proponents point to his 10 NBA draft picks, six NCAA Tournament appearances and 10 seasons with 20-plus wins since coming to Boulder in 2010. Detractors often mention Colorado hasn’t reached a Sweet 16 under Boyle’s leadership. This past season, the Buffs won a program-record 26 games, including two in the NCAA Tournament. CU products KJ Simpson (Charlotte Hornets), Tristan da Silva (Orlando Magic) and Cody Williams (Utah Jazz) were then drafted in June. BYU’s Kevin Young, a former Phoenix Suns assistant who’s preparing for his first season as a college head coach, took the No. 10 spot on On3’s ranking.
