Welcome! The Cypress school district has been good to us for big men.
We got our bookends and both have advanced techniques polished. Add some good S&C and they will play earlier than most as they will be needed. Great get here.

I'm guessing they were too small in middle school, and maybe not academically eligible.
Welcome young Buffalo!!!!
Welcome to Boulder!
Good pickup.
Came across this today via LSU 247. I'm not too worried, but definitely something to keep an eye on. More than anything, this tells us that HCMM has found himself a good tackle for the future. We need to continue to play well on the line and hold onto Elijah's commitment.
Following Cameron Robinson's commitment to Alabama, I am told by numerous sources that LSU will continue to look for an offensive tackle prospect in the 2014 class.
In Friday's Tiger Wrap, we went over some names to watch moving forward.
St. Louis offensive tackle Brian Wallace is a guy they like on film, and he will get a stronger look in the coming weeks as evaluations begin.
However, I would keep a very close eye on Colorado commitment Elijah Rodriguez .
I am told the staff absolutely loves Rodriguez on film, and he's moved way up the board and will get one of their first in-person evaluations this fall. The current plans are to get out on see Rodriguez in the next few weeks.
Rodriguez, a 6-foot-5 and 275-pound tackle prospect, plays high school ball at Cypress Creek in Houston. He just recently committed to Colorado, but that could change if a bigger program made a move. Right now LSU wants to see him in person and check out whether or not he's the caliber of guy they want. But from his film, they like what they have seen.

I mean, I couldn't blame him if he jumped to LSU at all. Means a lot though that MikeMac was first to offer. Proves his staff has a good eye for talent, if LSU's staff agrees enough to offer him to play OL in the SEC.
Couldn't blame him? I could. Prospects commit for a lot of different reasons and we can safely assume that an opportunity to play for a program with a ton of recent success isn't what is driving any of the 2014 CU commitments.
In saying that I would blame someone for flipping I am also assuming, of course, that when a prospect commits to Coach MacIntyre that the commitment conversation isn't:
"Coach, I've got great news for you. I plan on joining the Buffs unless I change my mind."
"Great! We'll stop accepting commitments for this roster spot now! Go Buffs!"
If a kid wants to play football for a program like LSU I wouldn't blame him. I wouldn't be happy, but I get it. Especially given how early we are in the season. Obviously we have plan B's and C's in place for this very reason.
