WELCOME TO THE BLACK AND GOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Nice. I know he isn't blazing fast or super tall but plays with good instincts, which are huge at LB. Also we were not the only Pac 12 school to offer which makes me feel good that our 1st 2 commits are perceived as legit BCS.
 
Getting our first two commits in the same week, both 3 stars, and having them be an offensive tackle and a middle linebacker sounds pretty good to me. At least makes the staff seem very organized in seeing them identify the guys they can coach to take their games to the next level, getting the word out to them about what Boulder and the football program are like going forward, and then building on that relationship to close the guy. It's going to take several years before we can judge whether the efforts to get these first two paid off for the program, but I am very encouraged now by what I see on paper.
 
Welcome aboard young man! looks like a pretty sure tackler and I think his speed will be fine. Being from Texas he already has the work ethics and played some pretty good competition. These coaches are killing it in Texas

Woohoooo!!! Welcome to the Black and Gold!!!
 
Sefo visited with Grant and Zack during their unofficial visit to Boulder in early April. They talked about the who, what, where, when and why he committed to Colorado; he told them to take their time, enjoy the process, not an easy decision, your family will support you when that time comes; It may come early or later but you will be a 100% sure its the right one for you and the family. He end it with a "Go Buff!!"
.
Welcome Grant, let's hope Zack is next.

One thing that really sticks out in his film is he is tackling, not just hitting. You can see how he hits, and wraps at the same time, and in most cases the runner doesn't gain another inch.
