The staff seems intent on bringing in a third TE, no matter what. Not sure what to think.
If he is a TE at the next level he certainly needs to RS if he is 210 lbs
Gaines will be going to a JUCO. But CU will be his preference in 2 years.
Fantastic article by Rivals today. Gaines is a good kid you want to root for and the Dillon family seem like great folks too.

Were there other players from Shane’s school being recruited by Colorado? By any other BCS conference schools? Did they have any success/horror stories about their recruitment?
Jason Gaines, who has lived with us for 3 years and we consider to be another one of our own children, was recruited by CU and a few others. Jason will still be going to CU after he is done at his JC. When Coach Mac met with Shane last week he seemed to already know all about Jason, and that was exciting for Shane. Jason is 6’4” 210 pounds and was probably to best receiver in San Diego County last year. He was a basketball player his entire life, and Shane convinced him to play football his junior year. He was a natural and has amazing potential to be great.
Shane is tweeting that Jason is coming to CU ....

So does anyone know the real deal here? Is he going to be on the team this summer/Fall? Seems we don't have a lot dug up on him yet. What exactly has he been doing this past year, highlights, etc? We could certainly use another TE especially if he is a good receiver.
