Started at LB for the latest state champion De La Salle team as a junior. Seems pretty open at this stage.

"I think Colorado is a great school and a great program," Egu responded. "I think Coach [Brian] Cabral, their linebackers coach, really knows what he is doing. He is a great man and he seems like he is a really great coach. I think Colorado's program is up-and-coming. I think in a couple years, they will be really great."
 
Good quote! Good player! I'm in!

Unfortunately, we seem to have quite a bit of ground to make up. If he doesn't commit somewhere else over the summer and we can land an OV it will be significant progress.

New update on Victor from a Northwestern writer for those with a premium Scout account.

Victor's added a few very impressive offers to the list above. (Schools like Notre Dame and Nebraska have jumped in for instance.) He doesn't sound all that into Northwestern in my opinion. I think he's flying a bit under the radar because he's a teammate of Michael Hutchings. Don't really get a feel that he's leaning towards any particular school at the moment. Seems pretty wide open still.
 
Egu has been absolutely blowing up this summer. Offer list is now impressive as hell.
 
The good news:

Egu has cut his list down to 8.

The better news:

We're appear to be on it.

"Right now I have eight schools in mind and I will be putting out a top five list in a couple of weeks once I determine which five schools I want to continue to look at," Egu said.

Northwestern, Cal, Colorado, Oregon and Boise State are schools in the most frequent contact with Egu recently. UCLA is also coming on strong, as it has increased contact with the rising star.

He seems pretty high on Oregon. Plans to commit in December. Hope our coaches stay after him and give it a chance.
 
Would be a really nice get. I hope we can get him out for a visit
 
For all the complaining about recruiting this would be at least one legitimate AQ level recruit if we could get him. If half his offer list is legit then a bunch of coaches think he can play.

He could be a guy who could play early and a lot for CU.
 
Adam has an updated interview at Rivals

regarding the coaching staff:
"...I feel like with what they were able to accomplish at San Jose State, they have a great chance for success in the future at Colorado."

Smart kid. No doubt why Yale is recruiting him.
 
Need to get him here immediately. Like him better than any other LB prospect we have recruited.
 
Why is he popping up again? Did I miss something-he decommitted? If so is there any info that suggests he is seriously looking at us?
