BOULDER — Finish strong.
It's what every coach aims to do — and there's no question Colorado coach Mel Tucker did just that with his first recruiting class for the Buffaloes.
Tucker put the wraps on his initial CU class Wednesday morning, barely two months after taking the job as CU's 26th head coach. By all accounts, it is a top-50 class — no small feat when you consider the time in which he had to identify, contact and bring student-athletes on board.
But more importantly, whether you break it down into December and February signees or evaluate the class as a whole, the consensus is that Tucker and his staff put together a group that should help make the Buffs competitive in a hurry.
