[f***bailer]

I absolutely love this recruit. Even before seeing that. Very excited to see how he progresses once here.

This kid looks way faster than 4.69. Very fluid athlete, excited to have him in black and gold the next 5 years.

 

[KyleM.]

Quite the athlete

 

[bigbang2]

Looks like a good QB.

Looks like a good QB.

except...he's going to be a DB in college..

 

[Daaah]

He looks like a fun guy. Quality recruits are sprouting like mushrooms around here.

 

[buffrunner]

Heck of an athlete, hope he quickly develops into that tall cover corner for us.

 

[Leon Sandcastle]

Heck of an athlete, hope he quickly develops into that tall cover corner for us.

It can totally go either way, but I personally see more of a safety here. Tall, rangey, athletic, great ball skills and likes to hit.

Think he is going to make an early impact.

Love the length we are bringing in at CB

Love the length we are bringing in at CB

I think we are seeing a big uptick in team speed with this class. Not that we are "slow" as a team right now, but it seems like this class just has more noticeable team speed.

Might be that we are getting guys who are overall better athletes. It's one thing to have straight line speed and be able to run a 40. This class may have more guys who can convert that speed into making plays on a football field.

Right, the old football speed.

Agreed. I also feel like we are bringing in more versatility.

Fast & fluid. Nice.

I follow California high school Track and Field, and know of this kid. Check out his triple jump accomplishments from last season (his junior year). He won the friggen California State Championship in what is the most competitive state meet in the country, bar none. Dude is an athlete. I'll bet he has more track scholarship offers than football. Coached up, this guy will be a big contributor to the CU football program for years to come. He has good grades, too.

Here is a website that us track geeks follow, which contains an interview with Osling right after he won the triple jump at the California State Finals last June. He can handle himself on camera, it looks like.

Hope IO is in his ear about doing Indoor Track.

[lawdogg]

Are they building their CB recruiting boards based off of who we have offered at this point?

 

[buffspokerams]

Well that was fast. 247 already has predicted a flip to the Bruins. Ugh.

 

[bigbang2]

Interesting offer by UCLA to Osling. They are now trying to poach our defensive recruits.

 

[Buffnik]

Also added a BYU offer. From his response, he seems very solid with the Buffs and sounds like a great young man.

 

[No offense]

Going to take an OSU VISIT
