Yeah Rodriguez was a huge UT fan, his brother plays for them now and I think his grandpa or something like that played for them. Kind of a tough spot for the coaches.

Not sure why. He's not on the ASU roster.
Hey a**hole, pipe down. That doesn't fit Duff's narrative!!!
The guys that are hurting us more than a TN kid who stayed home to his dream school or a TX kid who did the same are all documented here. They are our 4th & 5th year Juniors/Seniors:
2011 class
2012 class
Caution, 2012 has a bunch of guys with multiple P5 offers. Yuri Wright, Jagne, Gerald Thomas, Payne... It's inverted logic I guess. Definitely self-inflicted.

I think it was academics...but not sure. Kid is a player though.
I meant, "not sure why 4thGenBuff said that he would miss Jagne this weekend" since he did not qualify and wasn't on the roster. I agree the kid is a player. Would love to see him right the ship at a JUCO and consider coming to Boulder again!
He came close to qualifying but had gotten to far behind early in HS.
Enrolled at Scottsdale CC.

Don't know that we have much of a shot at him but I wouldn't mind if we could re-sign him. We have need of DEs.
What narrative? They lost guys late and had no Plan B. Recruiting 101, especially when you know it is a possibility that the recruit will decommit.
always should be a plan B... and a plan C.

I agree on Rodriguez and Dotson but the hockaday decommitment came out of nowhere. He didn't have any other major offers and I think vandy finally offered a day before signing day. Very hard to plan for IMO.
His dream offer was Vandy, so the staff knew that was always a possibility, IMO.

Considering 2 of the 4 (transfer + buried on the chart) will never see the field in the first half of a CU game, maybe. I just wonder if he could've gotten Juco OLs with those scholarships who would be able to contribute. That late in the cycle the pickings were even worse for HS OL to replace any who we did sign.
That is the problem coming from SJSU. It's not like they were in on some good linemen to flip, so taking Embrees commits were the best option. However, it's a circular logic since one of your biggest criticism was that the staff was not constructed to recruit well ( a stance I agree with).
