BOULDER — In Colorado football annals, the serendipity surrounding the recruitment of former CU All-American wide receiver Michael Westbrook is legendary.
Buffs fans may be ready to add the "discovery" of quarterback Steven Montez to that list.
For those who don't know the Westbrook story, here's a shortened version:
In the fall of 1990, then-CU head coach Bill McCartney was on a recruiting trip to Detroit's Chadsey High School. As he talked to the coach at the school about the player in whom the Buffs were interested, McCartney glanced across the room and saw a big wide receiver.
