Throughout the recruiting process, Curtis Chiaverini had plenty of opportunities to play college football.

Colorado State-Pueblo offered him a scholarship and several schools offered the opportunity to be a preferred walk-on.

For Chiaverini, however, it was tough to deny his heart was in Boulder. The son of Colorado co-offensive coordinator/receivers coach Darrin Chiaverini, Curtis will walk-on with the Buffaloes this fall.

"It would have taken a lot to get me away from (choosing CU)," said Curtis, who caught 29 passes for 343 yards and four touchdowns at Valor Christian High School last season.
