In classes 2005-2013 CU signed 23 prospects from Texas, which is actually a pretty small number over 9 classes.
The 23 breaks down like this:
14 transferred
3 exhausted their entire eligibility at CU (Drescher, Bonsu, and now DD Goodson)
1 starter (Drescher, if you count LS). Maybe 2 with Goodson
6 remain on the roster
So how much energy should the staff expend on recruiting Texas. Over 9 classes we basically landed a LS and two ok back-ups. Add in that the staff is built to recruit Cali and the frustrations from last year (only two TX commits and 2 decommitments) and I think we'll only see 2-3 from TX. Perhaps Boulder isn't a fit for most recruits from TX.
