Colorado State head coach Mike Bobo went all over the country to ink the Rams 2016 class, as there were only two in-state players. Bobo landed players from California, Texas and his former SEC recruiting area by grabbing players from Louisiana, South Carolina and Georgia.
The top player in the class is likely to be South Carolina quarterback Collin Hill and he will be on campus for spring football. His high school coach, David Gutschall, has done a good job at grooming quarterbacks at the Division I level by sending five to that level of college football.
The Rams are set at quarterback with Nick Stevens and Georgia graduate transfer Faton Bauta, so with those two in place will give Hill some time to get acclimated to the Colorado State and the college football game.
With Bobo being known for running the ball at Georgia is moving in that direction for Colorado State with the addition of Rashaad Boddie out of Washington and New Orleans back Darius May.
