Just an observation...There are currently thirteen 2019 recruits from Colorado with power conference offers and CU has only offered five of them.
I wouldn't have thought it was that high. Adam just did his pre spring evaluation Top 10 and I don't think every one of them had a P5 offer - 8 or 9 did, though. That's a lot for CO this early.Seems like a weird year. Only a few prospects where there seems to be a consensus.
Thirteen seems like an extremely high number.

I don't doubt you. My post was backing you up on the volume this year.https://247sports.com/Season/2019-F...Rankings?InstitutionGroup=HighSchool&State=CO
I count 13 with P5 offers.
Very strange that CU doesn’t think he’s a guy that fits what they’re looking for on defense.
Also, (yes, this was from a few months ago)

Yep. And this is equivalent news to McCaffrey choosing Michigan. Two in-state QBs who CU did not offer to play QB and went to P5 programs in the Big Ten while CU signed another in-state QB who made the Elite 11 Finals and AA Game roster at QB.Good for Alex, nice to see all these prospects from CO going to big name schools.
Has Colorado High School football matured to the point that we could get away with signing the top in state prep QB each year and be successful? It feels that way right now between Blake, Ty, and what's unfolding for 2020.Yep. And this is equivalent news to McCaffrey choosing Michigan.

I think Colorado is getting to the point where it's consistently putting out P5 level QBs and OL. I'd much rather them go Colorado heavy on OL going forward than QB, though.Has Colorado High School football matured to the point that we could get away with signing the top in state prep QB each year and be successful?

Not totally buying the QB hype just yet. I would still be looking to California whenever possible.
When you have the right guy in Colorado take him but the California kids and the Texas kids talent being equal will normally be more ready to play.
The top leagues in California and Texas have more talent in one league than Colorado has in the entire state. Those QBs have been throwing against better coached and much more talented DBs their entire HS careers. They are just used to smaller windows and faster reactions.
Now that 7 on 7 has become so big the difference is even greater.
Ehh, debatable.
Nothing. 7v7 doesn’t mean **** and anybody who tries to tell you that it does doesn’t know what they’re talking about.If the a Colorado QBs team is winning on a national level with there 7 x 7 team, would you say they are playing better personal. What is that worth?

In general I agree that kids facing better competition will be better players. We are just in a streak where colorado is producing some very talented QB's that many D1 programs would want. Get em while they last.Nothing. 7v7 doesn’t mean **** and anybody who tries to tell you that it does doesn’t know what they’re talking about.
It hadn't been around long when I played in 7on7. It got bigger every year but we just looked at it like the street ball game we played in front of my house every Sunday. Cool thing was, we got to compete against peckerwoods we didn't like from district and other parts of the state, made it fun.Nothing. 7v7 doesn’t mean **** and anybody who tries to tell you that it does doesn’t know what they’re talking about.
