NOT a bad move

Might have a contact or two in terms of donations, too....
12-PAC here we come!!
Where this is especially important is that there are supposedly some underclassmen in the Colorado prep ranks who are good enough to play in the Big 12 or Pac. Billups should help us with that.
Good move, IMO.
Having anybody named Billups associated with your baskeball team in Colorado is a good thing. This is a great move. I'm more impressed every day by Tad Boyle. He really seems to understand what it's going to take to get CU's basketball program rolling.
agree. and heck, Rodney's DU team was a game away from the NCAA tournament. having won the Sun Belt reg season, they lost in the tournament championship to La-Lafayette or Monroe on LA's home court as I recall. no at large bids from the Sun Belt, so DU went to the NIT maybe.
