This person seems to be stating that grads of these schools are of good quality, not that they are necessarily successful in the workforce.
In my opinion, the biggest upside of CSU's is that they provide a vastly more diverse student body. There's a greater range of financial situations, age groups, and ethnicities. I feel this experience working with folks from a variety of backgrounds is an essential part of a strong candidate.
I'm personally not really on one side or another. "Alternative" paths (e.g. CSU's, community college, no school) seem to create candidates that have had a diverse life experience. Top UC's/private schools create candidates that are regarded as more academic.
That's just my take on it, and I feel that people being on one side or the other is mostly due to which of these stereotypes that person prefers.
