A business alumnus of Arizona State University, Darwin Horan resides in Englewood, Colorado, where he serves as president of Ventana Capital and holds positions on numerous metro district boards. Beyond his professional pursuits, Darwin Horan is a fan of the National Football League's (NFL) Denver Broncos. NFL free agency opened on March 14 and the Broncos made waves by signing quarterback Case Keenum to a two-year, $36 million contract. A native of Abilene, Texas, Keenum was signed by the Houston Texans as a college free agent in 2013. The Texans lost all eight games he started that season, while Keenum had nine touchdowns and six interceptions to go along with a 54.2 completion percentage. He was slightly better in his two-year stint with the St. Louis/Los Angeles Rams, but only established himself as a premier quarterback this past season with the Minnesota Vikings.Keenum started 14 games with the Vikings in 2017 and led the team to a win-loss record of 11-3, while throwing for 22 touchdowns and seven interceptions. He also had a career-best 67.6 completion percentage and a quarterback rating of 98.3. The 30 year old is projected to start next season for the Broncos, but the team also has a top-five pick in the upcoming NFL Draft which it might use to select a promising collegiate quarterback like Josh Allen, Josh Rosen, Baker Mayfield, or Sam Darnold.

Meanwhile, Modkins brings 23 years of coaching experience to his role as running backs coach and has worked in a variety of roles with the San Francisco 49ers, the Buffalo Bills, the Detroit Lions, and the Chicago Bears.
