cartm25 No. 2 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Honestly, this is very unsurprising to me, and we should get used to more of this. Can't tell you how many recruit graphics I now see that have teams in the running: Bama, Georgia, Oregon, Ohio State . . . and Colorado? It hurts to say it, but be prepared to lose recruits now on a semi-regular basis to Colorado. Will be interesting to watch their recruiting ranking trajectory.

crazyjeff No. 4 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Huge mistake by Jordan. Their offensive line showed absolutely no improvement all season. That is not just on the players, its on the coaches too. He gets to play for a Hall of Famer, but he will receive poor coaching. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitnessczar No. 7 Share Posted December 7, 2023 (edited) Colorado was the worst P5 team when Coach Sanders took over. This year most games were actually close and they only got blown out twice. As for the offensive line they were an fricken to start the year. They did get better and ended a D. But that still doesn't help your quarterback stay upright. Or make lanes for the running game. So any newcomer is almost guaranteed to start. Especially if you are a five star. We shall see in the next couple years how their development is.

DanLduck No. 14 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Apparently $$ talks. Sanders said the NIL collaborative needed to ante up...guess they did. They definitely need O-line help, he should start right away. Maybe this is the new way, take the easy $$ in first year or two, then transfer somewhere with a real chance to win a championship, and get more cash. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven A Moderator No. 15 Share Posted December 7, 2023 This is great. He wouldn't start here, he is no Sewell, but will at CU. So, he can cash his checks, get experience being run around, and hit the portal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Landing Dillon Gabriel can't hurt Oregon's chances. He could protect one of the best returning QBs in the nation and be on a team that is a favorite to win the B1G next year and compete for the national championship.
