Watched Lone Star play a couple games here in Frisco last year. I remember Bolton looked like a grown ass man.

I was on the sidelines (wearing my CU gear of course) to see that first play in his film.

Intriguing prospect for sure. Plans to visit CU at some point in the future.


Coach's dream.
“I study eight hours of film a week and as a result, I know what everybody should be doing on every play. If somebody messes up in the secondary, I know who it was and can try to help fix the problem. And I study my opponents so I can get a cue on what they are going to do. I look at the guard's stance, the splits in-between the receivers and linemen, anything I can to figure out what is going to happen before they snap the ball.”
 
Definitely a player the coaches will want to see in person. Is he maxed out at 6'0"/225?
 
Picked up a Washington offer.

Wonder where he sits on the board at ILB. Scout update from last week said we stopped by his school for a practice after the SEP started.
 
With the quote above it sounds like he's got his priorities in check. I hope the coaches can tailor their pitch accordingly...
 
Really like this kids film. He plays downhill at ILB and lays the wood. If he's looking for early PT he has to like what he sees with us.

Downside with the new targeting rules, he'll get tossed from some games.
 
Picked up an offer from Utah this week. Definitely a player to watch through the summer.
 
Time, Love and Tenderness are what the Buffs need in order to land young Mr. Bolton.

Coach Chev, pictured below (who has grown his hair out in solidarity), seems to be his lead recruiter, iirc.

Granted, they're only highlights, but I like how he makes it thru the chaos. Also good to see that whoever has the ball isn't getting an extra yard or two after this guy makes contact.

He does what a MLB is supposed to do.
 

Based on the replies to this tweet, it looks like Washington fans think they're in good shape here.
