Late DT find chooses home-state Buffs

Colorado just added prospect No. 25 to their stellar 2017 class. Monday Jalen Sami tweeted he will make the drive from I-25 up to Boulder to be a Buffalo.

I'm glad to announce that I will be continuing my education & football career at CU Boulder! #GoBuffs#Blessed#D1 pic.twitter.com/nuaZRvUFwS

Sami, a six-foot-five, 325-pound defensive tackle is from Vista Ridge High School in Colorado Springs. He spent the weekend in Boulder where he was offered a scholarship.

In his senior season he recorded 30 tackles in six games, sacking the quarterback four times, while being involved with one fumble. He held offers from Ole Miss and Northern Colorado as well.

Sami went from thinking he was JUCO bound (because he was under-the-radar) to thinking FCS to getting Pac-12 and SEC offers within two days.
