Forget it.
Like I said, my question was rhetorical. I understand “why” but it frustrates me because I think we should be much better and that CU should be an easy sell for a good recruiter, which, apparently, KD and staff are not. And too that point, why is KD unable to beat Boise State for a recruit? Obviously our results aren’t great on the field, but a good recruiter’s job is to sell a program that is, often, struggling.

Maybe try painting the field blue. Recruiting hasn't developed, try paint
Can’t do that in Boulder. Too many geese would die.
Hmm. Your idea has merit!
If the guy is going to Boise, then CU is not the Lone snubbed Ranger. Plenty of other P5 offers too.
Simple Boise Recruiting Story:
We win a lot
Bowl game every year
Players in the NFL
No coaching drama - our HCs may leave for bigger jobs but then it's the next (successful) man up.
Poly/LDS friendly
Not far from NoCal, Seattle Plex for family travel
Goldilocks Porridge Town - Not too big/Not too small.....
.....aaaaaand FAMOUS POTATOES!
If you aspire to be a Rhodes Scholar or you MUST play in P5, you're not choosing Boise. But that still leaves a lot of guys.

Our program runs like a program that has no interest in winning.
Any business, regardless of how good the product they were selling, that operated with the same attitude as our program puts into recruiting would have a hard time staying afloat.
hell, did you listen to the most recent BuffStampede podcast? Even Ryan Miller was giving the whole "if you just get them to Boulder" spiel. Like c'mon man, you went through the process of being recruited and you still buy into that bull**** that the flatirons and the campus will win recruits over. Clearly they won't otherwise we would have much better recruiting classes.
Yeah, there have been A LOT of really good recruits who they were able to get to Boulder. Turns out, most don’t really care about the views of the mountains

Many of these kids that are highly rated coming out of HS - 4/5 stars - probably smell the chance at getting to the NFL in a few years. They don’t care what the campus, or surrounding areas look like. They want to play most of all, learn from the best coaches, and play against good competition to get them ready for the possible leap to the pros. I’m not sure what Boise St has to offer, aside from good coaching at a G5 level, and a consistent winning program. Things have definitely changed since the late 80’s and 90’s. Until the stars align at the top of the CU admin/BoR to the AD…this will be CU football.
Here's some interesting data from the NCAA - lists the # of players per FBS school on 2021 active 53-man NFL rosters. Boise has 10 and looks to be the top G5 program for that. Alabama leads, Shocking. Jalapeño - check out the data on FCS guys. There's a guy who goes by the first name "Jackrabbit"? That's the best....

The 2021 NFL season is right around the corner, here's the amount players in the pros that each conference and team has.

I’m not sure if you’ve been watching our games recently, but they would absolutely smoke us
I don't think he's completely off base, though. If everything else is equal, the setting can be the thing that puts CU over the top. Alfred Williams tells the story of the first time he saw Boulder all the time.
The problem is that tricky little part at the beginning of that sentence. Too often in the past 20 years, CU staff has relied on the setting as the central part of the strategy, not a fringe benefit.
