If you're anywhere near Colorado, I would recommend CSU if you have the extra time to spend on an undergrad. At my last job (Colorado), everyone there seemed to be part of the "CU vs. CSU" club. A degree from either one of these schools would have been beneficial just to be part of the office school chat.
Of course, you could always get a quicker degree through TESC or COSC and then do a graduate degree at CSU online. That would probably be the option that would give you the best return on your college dollars. Why spend more for a CSU undergrad than COSC when you can use that money to get your graduate degree?
If you're not near Colorado and don't plan to be, I don't see that CSU would give you a huge advantage over TESC or COSC, which are both state colleges, but I could be missing something. In Colorado, your main advantage would be that a CSU alum is likely to be a decision-maker in hiring you, which could be a benefit.
