CSU Football staff celebrate a special Signing Day

Live it up, Colorado State Rams football staff.

It’s been a momentous National Signing Day 2016 for CSU Football. There was the six-hour long Signing Day event hosted by Brian Roth, there was head coach Mike Bobo’s press conference and appreciations all around.

Like this one from Athletic Director Joe Parker:

Congratulations to Mike, his staff and the team. Great job! https://t.co/1kCDoQeLvd

Bobo’s 2016 class — which is really the entire coaching staff’s class, since it takes all of them out on the road recruiting to be successful — is chock full of size, speed and athleticism. It’s the kind of class which will put Colorado State in contention for the Mountain West Championship, which has been a goal of Bobo and the team since he stepped foot on campus in late 2014.

In fact, according to all three major recruiting websites — Rivals, Scout and 24/7 Sports — CSU was No. 2 among Mountain West schools, with only Boise State ahead of them. That’s impressive in itself.

There’s Leah Knight next to Will Friend in the front row, with Bobo behind Friend’s left shoulder, Marty English in the back left corner and so on. Bonus points if you can name 15-20 of the people shown.

Of course, as Bobo said during his press conference Monday, they’re already recruiting for 2017 in this non-stop world of college football. So, enjoy the win, Rams coaches. And onto the next fight.
