Solomon wasn’t on scholarship and I’m sure that played a role in his decision. I’m surprised he wasn’t, I thought he was making improvements
wasnt he from IMG? How could his family afford that but not CU tuition
Living in Boulder ain’t cheap
I know but IMG is approx 90K a year, CU approx 60K assuming you stay on campus
then thats it for his career then

It’s simple..
If you don’t want to be in the spotlight
If you don’t want to be under a microscope
If you don’t want to face an unusual amount of pressure and scrutiny to win
Then don’t go to Colorado.
Colorado has cameras everywhere, celebrities, former NFL players and more importantly, NFL SCOUTS in Boulder every week.
You can’t hide or blend in because even if it doesn’t get reported in the media, your flaws will get exposed.
Most of the incoming transfers from this year and last year came to elevate their profile and become something they never were at the schools they left… starters. And the players who were starters wanted to be NFL prospects. They saw Colorado as the cheat code but quickly found out, Colorado is just like any other power 5 school
I think Edwards and McClain came to Colorado thinking they were doing the program a favor. And in return they would be rewarded with unlimited snaps on game day. Once they realized they were going to have to compete they folded. Both looked at Colorado as low class and beneath them. They got recruited by better schools so it was nothing for them to simply leave.
I think the class next year will make or break Prime.
2025 will show
1. How Prime does without his sons playing as well as Travis Hunter (who I don’t think is a lock to enter the draft).
2. Who is the QB going to be.
3. Will they rely solely on the portal again or will Prime gain any ground in HS recruiting.
If Colorado has a winning seasons, makes it to a bowl game and even the playoff, then the program is set.
They can’t have anymore blowouts on them like last year.
The caliber of players they gained in the portal on paper is way better than last year. And he went into this season with a better foundation at least.

Should have just went pro. Might have got selected on day 3 or at least get an invite.
He's going to be 25 at next years combine.
How has it effected portal recruiting

He's in a tough spot Colorado just isn't going to spend the type of money needed to bring in good high school kids.
And now everybody is getting their NIL together so it's going to be tougher on portal recruiting. Now you have certain groups with an agenda against him, working against him. Just tough when he won't get the support he needs to make it happen at Colorado.

That doesn't make up for high school recruiting.
You need high school talent.
Portal talent is for filling holes.
Colorado has a lot of holes.
For handling the Big12 it might be ok.
When you get into higher competition it's going to get exposed.

Look breh, we've been watching football for a long time.
A lot of transfers are not transferring if they had a chance to start at their old school.
