CU's recruiting class

[fatty fat fat]

Good.

Notice all their two stars are from Cali, Florida, Texas, and Pennsylvania.  Not Colorado.  And they got the best player in Colorado.

Must be the hippie filled mountains.

[PoetWarrior]

Similar to ours at the top.

We have a few more 2 stars though.

 

[McGrowlTowelZac]

yea but we have 23 committs, they only got 16, so they suck

[catzacker]

Why is CU recruiting so many guys over 6'?  They're never going to be able to keep up with the mini-me gang at KSU.

Heh, check out the average 40 time.

Half are o-linemen.

Yes.

4.73 for the rest.

We have 16 commits under that.

(Accuracy?  Who knows.)

Our average of non-OL's is 4.55.

Our recruiting class makes me ill.

[The Manhatter]

I'm not happy about the midgets either but let the record be known...

Texas depth chart...3 in their top 4 corners...

Nike camp measurements:

5-10.5
5-9.5
5-7.5

You don't necessarily need giants.

Having said that...my kidney for a stud 6-0 corner or two.

[fatty fat fat]

What's up with Stephenson?  His last 6 or so updates have been incredibly worthless.

If we land him, like the drama queen I am.... my view changes 180. 

[The Manhatter]

fatty, I wouldn't call out this class at this point in time.  I suspect we have some good ones right now and it's conceivable that Prince could close out this class w/ Stephenson, Parker, Chandler, Asante, Mendoza, Earnhardt, etc....that would make a very good class for his first full year of recruiting.

Who knows...beat Iowa State, CU, and Kansas and maybe Ballard opens up or some other areas.

the one thing Snyder was not doing well his last few years was recruiting the jucos..I think Prince is going to land some big JC's and that will probably make or break this class from being average to a good class.

But, as many point out, we won't know for a few years.

[PoetWarrior]

Prince will need to be a miracle worker to get Asante.

COME ON PRINCE!

GRRRRRROWLLLLL!!

 

[catzacker]

I'd like some WR's (JUCO or otherwise) with some size, unless Prince's philosophy is to have a really, really tall QB throwing over a really, really tall OL to really, really small receivers (of course excluding Lamark).  

[chum1]

6' corners with great speed and athleticism are hard to come by even in the NFL.  It's much better for us to have 5'9" guys that can keep up with receivers than 6' guys that can't.

[coitus]

ill take shorties like newman, butler, canty, ced williams, etc.

Your schtick on recruiting is getting old.  Tell me again what qualifies you as a recruiting expert?

STOP TALKING TO ME

[PurpleReign]

Colorado 2-star OL Mike Itis has offers from Michigan State, Missouri, and NC State.
KSU 2-Star OL Colton Freeze has no other offers.
KSU 2-star OL Jake Roepke has no other offers.

If you think our O-line sucks now, wait a few years and get back to me.

Please recite the star rankings and offers of the starting OL for both Louisville and WVa.  I'm not saying you don't have a point but to make a bold statement based on 3 players and then say, "if you think our OL sucks then wait a few years". Good stuff.

Do you know why Roepke only has one offer?  There is a reason and it isn't because programs don't like him as a talent.  Things are not always what they appear.

As for CU's 2 star w/ offers.  Congrats to him.  He's in a highly visible recruiting state and in a program that has a lot of D1 prospects.

Attitude?

[The Manhatter]

Rusty, me no speak ingles'.

I'll say this...give Prince time to build an OL.  There were rumblings in the spring that he wasn't exactly blown away by what was in the cupboard as far as OL when he showed up.  That should go w/ out saying.

Having said that you look at what he did at UVa and it was incredible.  He had a bunch of lightly recruited kids and turned out 4 NFL linemen in just the 4-5 year he was there and there willl be more from his time there who make the league in the near future.

While watching the UVa game last week it was evident Prince knew what he was doing.  There were a few lightly recruited kids at tackle who looked very talented starting over the #2 OL from the class a few years ago at LT and RT. 

Just give him time...he needs to completely redo the OL and he will get that done.

Well, Prince is going to have to figure out a way to use what he's got on his roster right now, because it isn't like we're going to run out very many of "his guys" next year. 

[The Manhatter]

catzacker,

It's not "running off" but my guess is that some vets get an idea if they are sitting behind freshman and demoted to scout team that if they wish to continue their playing career they might look around. 

This will be a big class of OL and there will be plenty of young players on that OL next year.  Let's just pray we get the OT from Compton CC who is visiting in December. 

I anticipate the core of the OL next year being Stringer, Unruh, Rooker, Bedore, a JC kid, Mayfield, Krehbiel, and likely a few true frosh.  I'm hoping the Turner kid makes it in December and we land Stephenson.  I'm sure Handy will factor in there somewhere because Prince loves the kid's work ethic etc. but he's not the most talented that is for sure.

Maybe he's a crook.  Afterall, MCMW!

Hatter none of these 2-star guys are undeveloped athletes like D'Brickashaw Ferguson.  They are already 280 and are going to add about 20 pounds when they get to college.  You are comparing apples and oranges.
