Subbing in for Mike Singer. Here is a weekend recruiting round-up.
Head Colorado Football Coach Mike MacIntrye led off the weekend by stating that this weekend was a momentum building weekend in Boulder. Several key targets touched down in Boulder over the last few days for official visits and the Buffs also held an on-campus camp on Sunday.
Jashua Allen an inside linebacker out of River City, California looked to have enjoyed his visit as he praised Colorado following his visit, “Something great is happening here in Boulder.” Allen at 6-foot-2, 210 pounds switched from running back to inside linebacker last season where he finished third on the team in tackles and posted 12.5 TFL's and 5.5 sacks.
The latest offers for Allen are from Utah, Colorado, FAU, Iowa State, Fresno State, New Mexico, Illinois, and Colorado State which offered Allen one day before he arrived in Boulder.

All eyes are on Jermaine Johnson as the 6-foot-6, 240-pound weakside defensive end out of Independence, Kansas took his official visit over the weekend. “I’ve got a good feeling about Boulder. I had an amazing time,” said Johnson after spending time with Mike MacIntyre.
It will be interesting to see if Colorado can make a push with the highly sought after junior college prospect as he named Miami, Georgia, UCLA, USC, Oregon, and Texas as his favorites three weeks ago.
