What year?
That was an awsome BHS team - something like 5 players went D-1, including two Buffs (Heath Irwin and Darren Tadlock).

I really quit following Pomona when I graduated in 84. All I know now is that their current head coach was a real prick as a student.

Is that Carolina or Colorado?
Graduated 1997. My college choices came down to Tulane or CU, and I have never regretted my decision. I don't know that the Green Wave would have sparked my football interest like the Buffs.
I can also say Go Panthers, but much different high school. :smile2:

Colorado, teacher.
pretty similar story. native....grew up watching CU since i was very little. nobody in my family went to CU...and i would have loved to go there to, but no baseball. like you, if i couldn't get a schollie i would have walked on. locally, i only had offers from regis and du....so i decided to go to a small school in NE....moving there made me and even bigger CU fan. had to rep my home state squad in the belly of the beast.
Graduate from high schools in Lake Oswego Oregon. Chose CU over Oregon, Washington and Virginia (lived in VA until I was 13). When I took my visit to CU in the summer of 84, I was hooked when we stopped at the scenic overlook on 36 right before you drop into Boulder. At that point I knew I was going to be a Buff. Got both my undergrad and graduate degrees from CU.
Born a CU fan in Houston in 1987. Lived as a CU fan in New Orleans, grew up as a CU fan in Denver (Cherry Creek High). Only applied to CU, now current student. Both of my Dad's parents went to CU, my Dad went to CU, my sister went to CU, an uncle and couple cousins also went to CU.
exactly and rep to you my friend:smile2:

CO Native as well (Mullen H.S.), and graduated from UCB (Business) in 2006. I also met my future Wife there (she graduated in 2007).
I thank my Mom & Dad daily that they moved away from the podunk farms in Iowa & Nebraska so that I didn't grow up being an Irrelevant Idot like the rest of my family (KnU lovers....not necessarily graduates :lol

Born and raised in Colorado (Grand Junction), graduated in 1999 and haven't missed a home game since I enrolled.
Raised in Hawaii (Punahou - Obama's snotty elite highschool)
CU grad '90 Econ
Married a native (CU '92) then divorced her. She's now back in CO.
I'm often surprised at how many people from Hawaii go to CU. When I went to Boulder I was told that Hawaii sends more students to CU than any other state except CO and CA. Don't know if that is true anymore or not but walking around campus my freshman year I recognized a lot of people from Hawaii.

beware the habu
Grew up a Buff fan. I've (literally) circled the globe, and have lived in fan-crazy places like Northern Virginia/WashDC, SoCal, N-Carolina, Phoenix, Utah, and, yes, Okla. My loyalty will never waver.

I guess Im one of the outliers here in that I have no family legacy at CU nor did I grow up in Colorado...I'm from Pennsylvania originally and went to CU for school (graduated in December)...
Dont matter bro, you're a BUFF!!
Colorado Native.
3rd Generation Buff(Dad got his undergrad and grad at CU, Mom got Masters at UCD, Grandma got her undergrad at CU and was recruited by Byron "Whizzer" White when he was attending(no kidding))
CU Alum 2005
Grew up with Dad who worships at the mighty Buffalo altar, first game I attended was the 89 annihalation of Mizzou(if only they all could be that easy!). :smile2:
