* UPDATED * Big Recruiting Weekend for Football
I know it would be nice to get some more practices under the belts of returning players but with no bowl to plan for the entire staff is concentrating on recruiting. Embree is currently in New Orleans trying to pick up a commit from Gerron Borne, a 6'2" DT. He is currently committed to Arizona but plans on decommitting soon.
Some big names will be paying a visit to the CU campus this weekend.
Commits
- DT Tyler Henington ***
- RB/FB Clay Norgard *** (now ranked as the 4th best FB in the nation by Rivals)
- WR Gerald Thomas *** (runs a 4.3 in the 40)
- DE De'Jon Wilson *** (from H.D. Wilson H.S)
Prospects
- CA OT Nico Siragusa *** (offers from WSU, Oregon State and San Diego State)
- JC OT Alexandru Ceachir http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmXi377O-1k (Can he qualify academically?)
- TX S Leo Thomas *** (Another offer from Arizona, Ht: 6-3 Wt: 175)
- DC CB Kenneth Crawley **** (Fellow teammate of Sherrard Harrington and D'jon Wilson. Committed to Tennessee but if we can get him to switch that would be a huge get) http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/recruiting/player-Kenneth-Crawley-113285
- NEW - Deaysean Rippy **** his player profile says he's visiting Pitt but I am hearing he'll be at CU so not 100% on this http://recruiting.scout.com/a.z?s=73&p=8&c=1&nid=4587758
- CA WR/CB Jonavaughn Williams Ht: 6'0" Wt: 195 no stars but impressive offer list - Arizona, ASU, San Diego State, Washington, Oregon State http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/recruiting/player-Jonavaughn-Williams-128831 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3uMPrTb1as
- OL CA Steven Moore *** Ht: 6'7" Wt: 265 (Yet another Arizona de comitt) http://recruiting.scout.com/a.z?s=73&p=8&c=1&nid=5534403
- DE CA Kyle Kelly **** Ht: 6'3" Wt: 205 (comitted to Arizona but we've seen the trend) http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/recruiting/player-Kyle-Kelley-124163 He will be visiting next weekend 12/9/11
- DE JC Morgan Breslin Ht 6'3" Wt 245 (soft verbal to UCLA) http://colorado.scout.com/a.z?s=148&p=8&c=1&nid=5480180
There is a cold front moving into Colorado which should keep temps in the mid 20’s to mid 30’s all weekend. On the other hand the fresh snow on the Flat Irons should be impressive.

2nd season
I don’t care who your coaches are, facilities, or where you play. If you don’t have the players to fit your system, you will not win. Bring em in Embro. Go Buffs!!!

Mission Viejo OT Colby Cyburt's announced he will visit at some point
Look, I've already told Utah to suck it. There's no going back now.
you can add Jonavaughn Williams to that list for this weekend

Wow

Shoulder to Shoulder
He's a CB/ WR
I like him as a CB. He’s on a not great team, but plays against elite competition.
Look, I've already told Utah to suck it. There's no going back now.
Check out his Sr highlights on YouTube
Pretty impressive, my only minor concern is his speed. Speed kills in the Pac 12.
GIVE UP- At some point, hanging in there just makes you look like an even bigger loser.
Duh, just realized BuffEmUp already posted his You Tube

I think he's fast enough
don’t forget- 40 times are bogus anyway. And even if he can’t cut it as a corner, he’s got the size to play safety.
Look, I've already told Utah to suck it. There's no going back now.
Also
looks like UCLA commit Morgan Breslin along with Keith Parker
weirdly, Ucla got a NEW commit this week. After Neuheisel got fired
It’s P Diddy’s kid, which doesn’t make it any less weird.

I heard it was P Diddy
and he gets to pick the coach.

Kyle Kelley coming to visit. Would be huge!
This just feels like a snowball rolling downhill and getting bigger and better!
Also, can I just say that I can’t stand that rivals adds who they think a player reminds them of? They think Kyle Kelley reminds them of Travis LaBoy of the Chargers. Why? Because they’re both white and have the same height. In conclusion, I hate that part of rivals.
College football is a sport that bears the same relation to education that bullfighting does to agriculture.

Rippy
Dude just has the look of something to fear. Cousin Doug needs to show him the way to Boulder.

It will be really interesting to see how this big weekend turns out
While not perfect weather I can’t wait to see how this recruiting turns out. There were hardly any recruits during the season and now we have a combo of all the committed guys to keep in the ear of the prospects for every second of the trip. The coaches don’t have to worry about any gameplan and I assume have an insane weekend to wow these kids and realize that they want to be part of this program to bring this up in the Pac.
Can’t wait until Tuesday/Wednesday to hear some of the recruits comments. Sounds like most should already be in Boulder, I’m sure when they are out, you won’t be able to miss the group of recruits together tonight, just wished their was a basketball game to go to.
Exciting Weekend in Boulder
Has anyone heard anything new on Traylon Shead? How about a name out of the dark past, Mister Jones?

This for sure
Would love to hear, “Mister Jones has just scored a TD!”
