EZ-E Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 http://rivals.yahoo.com/nebraska/football/...in-Colter-90753 Athlete with a shot at QB like Martinez?? I think so. Decomitted from Stanford and is looking for a new home. He is considering visiting in January. Link to comment
Nexus Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Looks like a good fit. Should be interesting to see what develops from this, if anything. Link to comment
NoLongerN Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Looked more like a "slot" WR or kick returner weapon. Excellent burst when needed for seperation. SheepdogMark Link to comment

huskersals24 Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Living in Denver and covering some High School football for Mile High Sports magazine I've seen this kid play a few times. He is a playmaker, not as a QB though. He can't throw the ball all that well but can definitely make plays. He's quick and shifty, and if you ask me he is better than Donny Spond a 4* ATH/QB out of Columbine HS that some of you were interested in after he decommited from Colorado. Would be great get as a slot guy, maybe a returner. Link to comment

Well I'm not sure if it's that Hawkins has a bad relationship with the coaches, or that not many people in general support him out here. But I'd guess the later. Whether it is on the talk radio, or in the local magazines/newspaper, most people don't know why he was retained other than the money aspect. With such instability and lack of support for their program, if I was 18 I wouldn't want to go into such a negative atmosphere. Also, and this is just my opinion, but with so many transplant families/people in Colorado, kids grow up rooting for whoever is best, or for the team where ever they moved from, and just don't care to root for CU. I rarely see kids wearing CU hats, shirts etc...and see more texas, usc, nebraska, florida... Also Colorado State in a growing program in a growing conference, they not only have more CO kids committed (granted it's 2 to 1), but they have a better coach. It's pretty telling when a kid who played his High School Football in Boulder down the street from CU, isn't interested in going to CU i think. Kenny Bell. Link to comment
MKO Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 One thing to note about Colter is that he injured his shoulder in September, which (at least temporarily?) ended his season at QB. He opted to delay surgery and played WR and RB, though. http://www.maxpreps.com/news/op9OFqLnEd6OE...ll-notebook.htm This article is old - did he go back to playing QB? Link to comment
