True freshman rarely play and accomplish anything significant. Winning NC’s and BCS bowl games is what this comes down to and most teams playing in those games don’t use true freshman. This is why I don’t give one s**t about national signing day.

Who cares? Schools that will actually be getting decent recruits this year care. Schools that will actually be competitive in the future care. People like you are the reason why CU will never return to where we once were in football, because you do not care about the program. Just like many other CU students, you jump ship as soon as things start going sour. I’m not defending Coach Hawkins’ performance, but when the student body has no active interest in luring any major recruits to Boulder, we will continue to miss out on top prospects. I realize that Darrell Scott and Lynn Katoa were busts, but the fact is, programs that continually pull in top recruits year after year are far more likely to have success. Just consult the previous recruiting classes of schools such as Florida, Texas, USC, and Alabama. Insinuating that it does not matter how highly touted recruits are is just completely ridiculous. There is a reason why these players are the subject of millions of dollars worth of recruiting visits every year by college coaches. Darrell Scott and Lynn Katoa are no exceptions. They were both exceptionally talented athletes but had other issues that led to their demise at CU. Scott had no work ethic and Katoa could not control his vices. If you think this means that spending your precious thoughts on bringing high profile recruits to Boulder is a waste, than you are an idiot. Please don’t act you like have some deep, higher reason for not caring about our recruiting class this year. Just admit that you’re apathetic, because you’re a fair-weather fan.
