I wish I hadn't looked at Allbuffs this a.m. The news is CRAP on the recruiting front.

I don't think this man committing elsewhere is bad news. This is a sign of where he was on the CU board more than likely.

Coaches should be putting on the full court press here.

Not only did Texas Tech fire its coach, but the OC (Sonny Cumbie) took the LA Tech job so it will be a different offense than he committed to.

On this note, I'd be very cool with hiring Stever Farmer to CU (current TTU OL Coach who went there with HC Matt Wells from Utah State).

we continue to let the local OL kids get away.. let's get this kid to stay.

…and for the most part it doesn’t matter.

…and for the most part it doesn’t matter.

It only matters in this case not really because the guy is local but because it looks like he had some respectable P5 Offers.

…and for the most part it doesn’t matter.

seems to me we have a good OL talent pool that leaves the state every year

Ohio State, Michigan, Michigan State and Stanford have all pulled an OL from Colorado this cycle in addition to Weatherby committed to TTU. CU needs to start winning most of these recruiting battles.

Taking 3-4 CO prep linemen every recruiting class is a recipe for a really bad OL

Some years it is 0-2. Some years it could be 3-4. You just can't be taking CO OLs for the sake of taking CO OLs.

If we can get the right 3-4 each year we will be fine, taking 3-4 leftovers and we will be in trouble.

What we can't do is have these other schools come in and take their choices and we take the players they didn't think were good enough to play for them.

We aren't going to win all of these battles or even close but we need to start winning some of them. Get 1-2 each year but have them be top guys and we will be much better.

Doesn’t matter who gets them if they ride pine all their career. My thinking is that the CO prep coaching must be so bad that the players are so far behind in development when they hit college they cannot catch up.
