Real high interest in CU. We just haven't offered yet. http://colorado.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1084568

His uncle is Larry Allen, who used to play OL for the Cowboys (probably a future HOFer). He's got the genes, was 1st Team All-League as a junior (5 sacks), and has the proverbial "great motor". What's holding him back seems to be his height. That shouldn't be a problem for us after the productivity we've gotten from Hypolite and Cunningham the past 5 seasons.

So are the buffs just going after famous names?
