Based on his latest rivals update, CU sounds like a really good fit for him
 
FYI, that Rivals article in may lists him at 6' 182 lbs which sounds a lot better than 160! Hard to believe he is not a lock unless he gets an offer from Stanford or some other major BCS team in a mild climate with good academics.

I wonder what these kids see from their POV that is changing.

I don't know how much they could have actually seen at this point. But if they're talking to MacIntyre and his staff, they are hearing a very well laid out philosophy, plan and implementation with actual examples of things they did successfully at SJSU and what has already changed at CU. There's a lot of positivity with meat on the bone.

1. CU has reached the heights of college football in recent times, so you know it is capable of getting there again.
2. HCMM and his staff turned around a much more difficult situation within 3 years, so you know they are capable of turning around a program to the point of competing for championships within the timeline of these recruits.

Put the two together with playing in the Pac-12 (perceived, especially by west coast kids, as the closest rival to the SEC for conference supremacy) and the absolutely amazing college atmosphere of Boulder... and you have a case that should be very compelling to BCS caliber recruits who aren't getting offers from the elite programs.
 
Hartley was the early target that would have filled one of the limited spots at WR in this class... had he committed over the summer. Since then, we landed Walker and Fields. I'm pretty happy with how this played out. No knock on Hartley. I think he's a good player.
 
This guy had an offer from us since summer. I dont understand why he didn't commit, seems wierd. He was very high interest on CU for awhile.

Sometimes kids have a higher opinion of their recruiting options than the schools do. They wait for the "big time" or "dream school" and end up getting losing out on the best options they had when those schools fill.

It is very likely that he didn't have the Oregon offer but thought one was coming. By the time he figured out that they weren't going to offer some of his other options had dried up.

Yeah I spent time at a Juco in cali, and every kid's first school that they wanted to transfer to was Oregon. Prob bc they have cool unis, but every kid thinks they have a shot at Oregon, but its such a high profile offer nowadays.

But yeah makes sense, he prob had way more options in the summer then on signing day. Im just pretty sure Colorado was his only BCS school offer if Im not mistaken.
