:yeahthat:
pretty good source :lol:
I agree. Definitely a Solder type player. I know I'll get hammered on for saying this but, the fact that he is a legacy makes it even better. I believe it would help to repair relationships with the local HS. IMO We've had pretty good luck with kids like this it seems, especially from the Central and Western slope areas (no source just pure observation)

I don't think before I post
If he does get a CU offer it will very late in the game after we have missed on our Plan A guys. I would love to keep the legacy kids here. It is tough when we are only projecting at 13 to 18 schollies. I hope he would consider a GS like McCartney did. There are some real advantages to having an extra year to let your body mature while not taking a pounding on special teams and in practice daily. His measurables look like D1 material to me. I think you would have to see how he fared against the best OT's he faces this year. I hope he also plays some TE so we can see how he would be as a pass blocking TE initially.
He is likely graduating in December, so a grayshirt is not really a good option in this case.
But, he could be a class of 2012 option if one or more from the class don't qualify, right?
Yep. I think our coaching staff is waiting to see how numbers shake out this spring and if any 2012 recruits do not qualify.
Go Tigers!
C'mon attrition!
If it is attrition out of the class we just signed no.
Tough situation for a kid who I would like to see as a Buff.
At this point, though, does it really matter which class he counts against? With a small class this year, the issue is the limit of 85, not the class size. Or are you saying he'd bring depth if a 2012 d lineman doesn't qualify?
85 is the key consideration, but you always want to count guys back if you can in case it could give you an extra slot in the class that follows.
Not as good as a CU offer, much better than a CSU offer.... :thumbsup:
Confirms that handling the academics should not be a concern.
source?
thanks.

This is Austin's Dad and we are totally supporting his decsion to attend CSU. We were very pleased with the new Coaches and feel they will make CSU a solid program soon! The risk of waiting for an offer to CU was one he did not want to take as well really wanted to make early. He plans enrolling in Jan 2013 and waiting was not an option for him. Thanks for all the nice words mentioned about him and I will always have BnG in my hart except for when the the Rams play the Buffs!
