Colorado, which will get top running back J.J. Flannigan of Pomona, continues to have success recruiting in the Los Angeles area. The Buffaloes received verbal commitments from All-Southern Section defensive back John Hardy of Coastal Conference champion Pasadena Muir and M.J. Nelson of Simi Valley. Nelson, who played running back in high school but figures to be a wide receiver or defensive back in college, was named the top player in Ventura County by a vote of coaches.
