Yeah, it looks like Wyoming offered Stonehouse, Ryan Gersonde, and Zaleski. My guess is that Gersonde told Wyoming no and committed to Iowa shortly thereafter, Stonehouse told them that he wasn't making a decision any time soon (which probably cooled Wyo's interest), and Zaleski jumped on the offer. CSU is fortunate to have a couple punting options already on campus, so we were able to wait Stonehouse out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoCoRam Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Aww man, there goes Bobo, fascinated with stars and landing a punter that is considered one of the best at the high school level this past year. I hope he's a cultural fit, I guess we'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very few options out there and the longer you wait the less there are. Glad he was able to get a scholly though. most places expect them to walk on for the pure joy of playing.

Fort Fun Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 JUCO DT Jamori Fox is visiting Fort Collins this weekend. He'll likely be the last addition to the 2017 class (assuming everyone qualifies). He's 6'1, 300 pounds and has three years of eligibility left. So that's cool. Only competition is Louisiana Monroe (he just OV'd there) so you gotta like CSU's chances, but you never know with these kids from the south. He's making his decision on Sunday.

badfish Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 300lb DTs are hard to come by, but you're right, lot of these guys from the south prefer to stay closer to home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He sure picked the right weekend to visit. I always worry about these southern boys visiting when it 10 degrees. Chamber of commerce weather in The Fort this weekend.

Fort Fun Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Tennessee transfer Preston Williams (5star WR, sitting this year out) is keeping busy with the CSU track team. Made his debut yesterday and promptly posted the best long jump of any MW athlete this year at 24-6.5. I can't wait to see him on the football field in 2018. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headbutt Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 That's nothing. We also beat out Praire View and North Carolina A&T. This is not Sincere David like we were hoping for, but he is large. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
