Colorado (and Notre Dame) still on QB Spond's radar

Definately an interesting story from the Denver Post. Lots of things happen in the recruiting world that most people never see or hear about. I think we tend to underestimate the "other than football" factors that go into a kids decsion process when selecting a college to attend. CU has a lot going for it compared to other schools, so I think its possibly a little narrow minded of us CU Football faithful to completley discount CU's attractiveness just because of some rough seasons in the Big XII.

Here's to hoping Danny wears Black and Gold come signing day.

Opportunity

Personally, I like challenges. If I had the talent like Danny Spond and it was my decision, I would sign with CU. If you want to start a legacy then you need to start with a program that is looking for a legacy player to lead them back to winning. The chance to play early and make a difference is huge. Going to a tier 1 school and having to sit behind other studs, does not help your chances at the next level. Experience and the ability to lead does. So I hope and encourage Mr. Spond to recommit to CU. If he is a natural leader, then he will. Natural leaders ultimately embrace challenges.

I hope Spound comes back, but I understand if he choses to go somewhere else

Hopefully he will have faith that CU will get rid of Hawkins next year and Spound can have four years with a decent coach.
