Everybody hates you, Everybody wishes that you were dead

I don't like the psychiatrist
You need to go see one
See a psychiatrist

Crawley joins the CU program as part of a notable H.D. Woodson contingent with teammates John Walker and De'Jon Walker. One of the most sought after cornerbacks on the east coast, Crawley was an All-Met First Team selection by the Washington Post. He is a true cover corner as well as an accomplished kick returner on special teams, finishing with 5 interceptions and returning two kicks for touchdowns as a senior. A longtime commitment to Tennessee, he visited Boulder in December and eventually chose the Buffs in late January. Arguably the top overall player in the class, Crawley should see immediate playing time. He chose the Buffs over nearly 30 other schools.

A two-sport standout on both the gridiron and the hardwood, Jagne joins the CU program out of the talent-rich Phoenix metro area. He will focus on football in Boulder and looks to build upon an impressive prep career that included all-region honors in both his junior and senior seasons. Raw and athletic, Jagne has arguably the highest upside of any prospect in the entire class. With a thin depth chart at defensive line, he may be counted on to contribute early. He visited CU officially in November and committed a month later. Jagne chose the Buffs over multiple BCS offers, including several PAC-12 schools.

A versatile athlete and the most decorated player out of the Upland trio signing with CU, Powell brings to the program a physical presence it has missed for several years. As a senior, he starred on both sides of the ball, compiling 400 yards and 7 touchdowns rushing the football while amassing 15 sacks on defense. For his efforts, Powell was named All-CIF Inland Division and ESPNLA named him the Inland Empire's Defensive MVP. He will start his career as a Buff at fullback and should compete immediately for playing time. He visited the Buffs in December with his Upland teammates, but looked to be headed to UCLA after committing there in early January, but he switched to CU just before signing day. Powell chose the Buffs over offers from Nebraska, Texas A&M, UCLA, and Washington.

As a senior, he played extensively at both wide receiver and cornerback, notching 9 touchdown catches and 59 tackles. The Buffaloes coaching staff recruited Mosley as a defensive back and he will likely start his college career at cornerback, although safety could also be an option. With an open depth chart across the secondary, he will have a chance to see the field as a true freshman. He committed to the Buffs shortly after his official visit in December. Mosley chose the Buffs over offers from Nebraska, Michigan State, and Oregon State.

Rasmussen was named to the ESPNHS All-Hawaii team as a senior as he led his team to a 6-1 league and narrowly missed a berth in the Division I state tournament. He took an official visit to Boulder in November and committed to the Buffs in December. He is projected as a defensive tackle for CU and is a likely redshirt candidate.

In addition to his accolades on the football field, Henington is also an accomplished wrestler, reaching the state quarterfinals in his weight class as a junior. One of the earliest commitments in the class, Henington joins Clay Norgard as the in-state signees for the 2012 class. With a depleted depth chart across the defensive line, Henington will have a chance to earn early playing time. He committed to the Buffs back in March over offers from Syracuse and UCLA, he was also drawing interest from several PAC-12 and Big 12 schools.

He played offensive tackle and tight end at various times for Pomona and he projects as either a guard or tackle for the Buffs. He committed to the Buffs in July and made his official visit in December. Since he is a bit light for a college offensive lineman, Kough is a likely redshirt. He chose the Buffs over an offer from Army and some interest from California schools.
