Inside the recruiting Trail

Interesting NYT article on recent recruiting tactics:

Wow. Pretty interesting read. I had no idea the players were so involved in trying to get a recruit. Makes sense, of course. Someone more their age and who's recently been through the process. Especially when you have someone who is pretty much a household name like Colt McCoy doing the calling.

I really thought that he would go to Texas, and I think it would have been a smarter decision for him too, since he would have been a starter almost immediately.

Interesting read.

Colorado got a good get, it is surprising he eliminated LSU because of fear of "culture shock". It is a different world down there, but I wonder if it was also the stable of backs they already have.
