Brooks: Stars Aside, MacIntyre Likes First CU Class

This is why I'm hopeful for MikeMac. He can win without highly ranked recruiting classes.

"Take a look at San Jose State, where his three teams finished 1-12 (2010), 5-7 (2011) and 11-2 (2012). In those three years, MacIntyre didn't have a recruiting class ranked higher than No. 99 nationally by Rivals.com."
 
His plan's fine print: In May, MacIntyre will dispatch four coaches to "hit every high school" in Colorado. Six coaches will be assigned to California, with some of them also working Colorado if necessary. Three coaches will work Texas, specifically the Dallas-Austin-San Antonio-Houston "triangle," said MacIntyre. "Texas is a gigantic state . . . we're really going to work that 'triangle' area hard."Also, one coach will work the Seattle/Pacific Northwest region, one will recruit in Arizona, primarily targeting Phoenix. San Jose State successfully combed that metropolitan area, said MacIntyre, adding, "We want to win Colorado first and foremost, get the BCS players here. That's our goal . . . we had a great response from high school coaches and families (and) we've already got our eyes on juniors for 2014. It's been a good reception. We've done a good job for this class."
Selling CU, MacIntyre said, shouldn't be difficult

Some good nuggets in an otherwise fluff article on where we will be placing our recruiting attention.
 
Says in there that Grossnickle and Thornton won't be back, hadn't seen that reported yet.

ya.. and notes that several players are waiting on medical clearance. The ever popular Medical scholarship rears its head (i.e. - kids go on medical to make the scholly situation work).

However, the notes about recruiting AZ are gonna make Duff happy.

If I had a nickel for everytime I said "I'm going to work that 'triangle area' hard"...

More often than not, it's an empty threat, but I still say it.

You can't do the job without the proper sized tool.

I'm starting to think this article might not really be about football. Or maybe it's a reference to Colt Brennan.

The process begins, he said, with the identification of ability and the evaluation of a prospect's "want to," followed by the development of skills during their college careers.
