Bump to note reports Sherry is verbaled to CU...
Why don't you keep this crap out of the recruiting forum? This is a big day for this kid and he doesn't need you pissing on it.Wake me when we actually get a commit from a player who actually has an offer from a BCS school. Remind me who the last commit was who has such an offer?
I know, I know, everyone of them would've if they had grades, weren't injured, were from a big city, etc etc.

Fair enough. I welcome Sherry and, to me, he looks like a player.
I must say, however, that just like some people don't want to buy season tickets to send a message, I also think it's important that fans hold the coaches accountable for recruiting. Gushing over every commit makes no sense and sends the wrong message.
I saw some mechanical flaws that he'll need to work on. These resulted in some balls floating, inconsistent accuracy, and every ball not looking the same (some spirals, some not). Those are coachables, though. Sherry has a live arm and great size. He was also supposedly a whiz at the blackboard with CU coaches when asked what he was seeing on plays and whatnot. Those are things you either have or you don't and they can't be coached. Give Sherry a few years in the program and I honestly believe we'll have a legit NFL quarterback prospect on our roster in him.

I disagree. X's and O's is completely coachable. It's great to read he already has a lot of knowledge, and I hope it translates on the field.
Yes, he has room to improve, as his HS coach even says. While I agree that we shouldn't be ripping on recruits, I don't think you can get rid of honesty. Honesty shouldn't get replaced with fanatical optimism in my opinion. "NFL"...that's assuming quite a bit - he would have to fill in all his potential. Most players do not do that. I'm glad this kid wants to come to CU, and I hope he gets better and better. However, I don't see him supplanting Hirschmann on the depth chart when he arrives on campus.
I reread this post, and I'm not trying to be an ass or anything. I do appreciate all the work you do on this forum, as well as others.
