Colin has been asked to join the football squad at Penn State. He is the best back a team that I have coached has ever played against. We saw him in the D5 semifinals when he was well rested and every time we had him bottled up he STILL found a way to do something special. Good luck fella. You have some people in the area rooting for you!!

Yes...huge props to Colin! I'm pumped for the upcoming season but sure gonna miss seeing him out there for the Ramblers.

Congrats Colin!!! A lot of talent coming out of area Williams, rizzo, Simon, eisenhuth, rugg, and much more in 1aa,2&3. Work hard then work harder there will be some world class fball players at state! Good luck buddy

Is he being asked to join the football squad as a walk-on? Or is there any kind of scholarship offer? Was he set to go somewhere else?

I think he was going there regardless. Hoping to walk on.

He told me before that he planned on getting to campus and then he would try to walk on next year if it would work out. With what went down he took a shot now and it has worked out for him so far.

I stopped by at a Rambler workout last evening and saw the familiar #3 out on the field. I had to do a double take when I noticed the boy looked very much like Colin. I later found out his little brother decided to play this year.

Was Colin at PSU's first day of fall camp yesterday?

Yes he was

Colin sent us this picture of his Penn State helmet... Really happy for the local kid getting a shot!
