Five-star recruit on verge of making decision

The decision is coming soon.

His mind almost made up.

The forthcoming answer having many on the edge of their seats.

Columbine high school offensive lineman Ryan Miller, a five-star recruit, is reportedly ready to announce his college of choice.

CU or Notre Dame?

Staying home to build something or heading off to a football factory that is reborn.

That is the question.

In a story today in the Daily Camera written by Kyle Ringo, it says Miller will not wait until January to decide on his choice, as originally thought. Many think the 6-foot-6, 280-pound tackle will choose Colorado. Of course, Miller just returned from South Bend where he experienced seeing the Irish win in the last minute over UCLA on a Brady Quinn-led touchdown drive.

It says here that moved Miller deeply, as did the tradition of that school and head coach Charlie Weiss. If Miller is poised to make a decision as soon as he returns from such an enviornment, you can probably assume the Buffs are not his choice.

He might like CU, it might be close to home, but at 1-7, it likely doesn't hold as much appeal as many might think. If the Buffs were 5-2, maybe, Miller's decision would be significantly more difficult.

Hope I'm wrong but I think the pick is Notre Dame.
