Colorado Covets Cottonwood's Katoa
When it comes to pursuing the most highly recruited prep football player in Utah this season, Colorado coach Dan Hawkins apparently isn't going to take a backseat to the big dogs of the Big 12, Oklahoma and Texas.
Hawkins recently made a trip to Utah to visit with Cottonwood linebacker Lynn Katoa and watch him play against East, several sources have told The Recruiting Trail.
A month ago, Katoa said he had narrowed his choices to Oklahoma and Texas, after having visited both campuses. But last week he said Colorado is in the picture as well now, along with LSU and, possibly, USC, Miami, Wisconsin and Texas A&M.
Katoa is scheduled to visit Boulder on Saturday to watch the Buffaloes play host to Kansas. From the way he has talked about Hawkins the past few weeks, I wouldn't be surprised if he makes a commitment while he's there.
The recruit mentions the desire to play right away in college every time he talks about recruiting, and Colorado supposedly is using at least one walk-on at linebacker, sometimes two.
"Coach Hawkins is a great coach and I believe he is a coach that will win a championship," Katoa told the Salt Lake Tribune earlier this week for a story that will be published Friday.
Cottonwood plays Olympus on Thursday, and Katoa will leave for Colorado on Friday.
He has a trip scheduled to LSU on Thanksgiving morning, and has also talked recently about wanting to visit Miami.

As a member of the Colorado Alum community, I'm excited to hear that Mr. Katoa is seriously considering playing as a Buff! I'm confident that he'll enjoy his time in Boulder. Go Buffs! Beat Kansas.
