AT COLORADO -- This Season (Fr.-RS) -- Enters the fall listed second at the rush defensive end position, as he had a solid spring. He had 11 tackles, four quarterback hurries, two pass deflections and two tackles for loss in the three main spring scrimmages.

2003 (Fr.) -- Redshirted; practiced the entire fall at defensive end. He was named the Scout Team Defense Award winner for two games by the coaching staff (UCLA and Missouri).

HIGH SCHOOL -- As a senior, he earned all-Midlands honors from PrepStar, Prep Football Report and SuperPrep, in addition to garnering all-state, all-district (4-5A) and all-metro area accolades (PFR called him the top tight end prospect in the state of Oklahoma). He was the Green Country League defensive player of the year, and was invited to play in the Oklahoma All State game. He earned all-district and all-metro honors as a junior, and scored honorable mention honors on both teams as a sophomore. A three-year starter on both offense and defense, he caught 26 passes for 320 yards and three touchdowns as a senior. But he was a monster on defense, racking up 120 tackles at his defensive end spot (81 solo), with 16 quarterback sacks, 29 tackles for loss, 27 quarterback hurries, seven fumble recoveries, five forced fumbles and 11 passes broken up. As a junior, he had 124 tackles (84 solo), with 22 for losses and 10 sacks, seven pass deflections and two fumble recoveries. He played mostly guard on offense, but did play enough tight end to snare three touchdown passes. He also played tight end as a sophomore and both end and nose guard on defense. Top games as a senior included 15 tackles, three sacks and two fumble recoveries in a win over Tulsa Central, and a 12 tackle, three sacks and one recovery in a win over Nathan Hale. Booker T. Washington was 13-1 his senior season, losing in the state title game, 9-4 his junior year and 13-1 his sophomore season, reaching the semifinals. They were two-time 5A-4 conference champions under coach Antwain Jimmerson. He also lettered three times in basketball (forward; averaged 12 points, seven rebounds and six assists as a senior). He has earned all-district and all-Green Country League honors.

ACADEMICS -- He is interested in economics or business (marketing or international) as his major at Colorado.

PERSONAL -- He was born March 22, 1984 in Tulsa. His hobbies include basketball and cooking, with his favorite dish to prepare being fried shrimp. His first cousin is Ryan Humphrey, a rookie forward with the NBA’s Orlando Magic who played collegiately at Notre Dame. In high school, he was active with his school’s student council and did volunteer work with the Red Cross.
