Another guy signing in February that CU should start recruiting. Drives me crazy how many guys like this didn't seem to get much effort from our Buffs coaching staff.

I know. It always kind of felt like they played down our chances and went after targets they thought they could land.
 
Not saying this is the case here, but how much of the previous staff's effort after initial offers was related to the likelyhood of admission to the university. Some schools with more lenient standards may pursue kids harder than others when there is a question. If that is true I would expect the new staff to also behave similarly.

It is not a big issue with the vast majority of offers CU makes. It is a very dated excuse.

This is why Barrett Miller is going to Stanford. CU said he couldn't get through admissions. FACT.

CU is not as hard to get into as some think
 
Seems that MM was always looking for the diamond in the rough. With his success in getting Chido and Tedric Thompson, I think he overestimated how often he would strike gold doing that.

We do realize CU accepts 75% of applicants these days. Not what it used to be.

I’ve been thinking about this for a while now, so I’ll make the comment here :). If we really want to have a successful AD, we should really be trying to be the resort version of KSUjc in the Pac 12. Whether through tough admission standards, or due to self imposed recruiting restrictions, we have historically had a hard time getting kids admitted to CU. For a variety of reasons, the reasons behind that issue are long gone. Meanwhile, CU has identified that with the lack of state funding, admitting more out of state students is a path by which they can grow revenue. Still an amazing education opportunity, but CU is reknown for the quality of experience among kids living on the west coast, Midwest, east coast, and Texas. Embrace that and stop thinking we are the top echelon in education....that was true when we were in the Big 12....but far from it in the PAC 12. Let’s act like it, sell it, and get the great athletes in here (even if they are borderline qualifiers. :)
