"I had a lot of fun, Utah is a great place," Abele said. "I really like the city there and the people were great. It seems like everyone is real into the football program there and they have great fan support.

"I had a good time on my other trips too but I think this trip might have been the most fun for me. It's a good fit there and I have a lot of interest in Utah."

Its almost like we are recruiting the way our offense played against WV. start out all aggressive, then completely drop off the radar. Step up coaches, these kids should be dying to go to Boulder. I’m just hoping that all these guys are pulling a D-Scott, pretty much already be committed to us, but just milking the process for all they can, understandably.

Props to irish1611

Thanks for the constant updates at RalphieReport – it’s become one of my main sources of CU football news!

In Hawk we trust – it sounds like he’s in a dogfight with a lot of other heavyweights. He’s an amazing recruiter, and I think the class will shape up nicely.

Abele

Abele also said, “My grandpa has some crazy stories so coach Neuheisal really wanted to meet him. His life could be made in to a movie. His journey to America was pretty crazy and I thought it was cool that coach Neuheisal took a real interest in that.”

Nik – wake up, buddy! Screwheisel doesn’t give a damn about these stories, but he’ll listen to anything if he thinks it’ll help recruiting!

Utah

Nik Abele is aware that if he goes to Utah, he will be living for 4 or maybe 5 years in Utah, right? That is not something I would be willing to subject myself to.

I like this kids size and I think CU strength and conditioning could turn him into a monster. While, Utah may have the advantage in the win column lately, CU has a much better history of taking kids and molding them into NFL players.
