It is official! 19 players have signed their letters of intent and will play on The Blue. There was only one surprise sign-ee in unknown Lee Hightower. It looks like he will be coming in as a cornerback recruit, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see the coaches trying him at wide receiver. Hightower is a track star with an amazing leap (how does 22' 10.00 on the long jump sound?) Without further ado, here they are!

It will be interesting to see what happens with Hightower. I figured the coaches would be looking for a cornerback after they were unable to secure McClure or Maston. There is a lot of talent here and some of them should be able to contribute early in their careers. Go Broncos!
