I can really only think of 2 other recruits we have been heavily linked to. Michael Carrol and Boateng.
 
Where are the RBs?

there was a blurb during the osu/mich game, that their last 22 matchups were won by the team that had the highest rushing total.
there is not a single RB listed on this Allbuff's page.
why isn't this more of a focus for us?

Guessing portal but I can’t imagine we are attractive there or at TE (regardless of the depth chart)
 
if I saw a team fail to commit to or successfully run the ball for two straight years, I wouldn’t even visit let alone consider going to play there. A receiving back still could but otherwise, no.

They will be active in the portal looking for RBs. A talented true frosh cube will need RBs and the better guys in the portal will know it.
 
I would be happy if all of our RB's returned. I don't expect that to be the case but Welch, Offerdahl, and Augustave I think will be back. I hope Hayden stays as well.
 
We also have Hood on a RS. I don't think RB is a need unless someone portals out. I wouldn't even take a Freshman unless he was BPA an way better than any other recruit at a much more needed position. I would consider taking a 2nd Development QB that you could try to groom into a possible RS Junior Starter.

I think you’re overestimating the abilities of college kids, who want to make money and possibly get to the NFL, to think beyond “what have they shown on the field”.

We also haven’t proven that we can do it successfully. It’s a bigger risk to come here for the possibility than it is to go to a program that has established it will run the ball.

These are professional athletes. If they can’t understand schematic changes based on personnel movements after recruiters tell them repeatedly, then they’re not good enough.

Um ok? Professional or not, they are still kids. They are still leaning on others for advice. And many people will be telling them that CU doesn’t run the ball. Our recruiters will be telling them the opposite. Competitors will be negative recruiting with that.

And, if they don’t understand the dynamic shift with a true freshman cube, then they’re not the right fit.
