By Sam Metivier, Ralphie Report: Somehow, someway, Tad Boyle has taken another step with the Colorado Buffaloes basketball program. This is not a program where elite recruits land, but with all 13 scholarships accounted for, the Class of 2021 is ranked 9th in the nation and first in the Pac-12, per 247Sports.com.
This recruiting class started with a local kid, Lawson Lovering from Cheyenne, Wyoming, who committed to the Buffs before his junior season even began. Then a 3-star recruit, Lovering has grown (literally) into a top-50 recruit nationally. The Buffs have never had a 7’1 center who can shoot, block shots and handle the ball, but they will have one soon enough. Maybe this recruiting win is on the luckier side, but it’s still huge to identify the local talent who bloomed into an elite recruit.
