We try not to write too much on scholarship offers because who knows how interested a player is in a school but I couldn't resist writing about this recruit and his inherent tie to the program. Kendall Gregory-McGhee, best described as an athlete since he can play multiple positions, has received a scholarship offer from the University of Colorado. The 6'4" 220 lb Gregory-McGhee is a local kid from Cherokee Trail in Aurora. What makes this recruit appealing is that his father, Kanavis McGhee, was a former stud linebacker at the University of Colorado in the early 90's and was a major part of the successful Bill McCartney teams. Kanavis was a first-team All-Big Eight player and a runner up for both the Butkus Award & the Lombardi award which are given to the top linebackers in college football. Kanavis was also drafted in the second round by the New York Giants.
Kanavis' son, Kendall has the ability, due to his size and speed, to play DL, TE and WR hauling in 9 touchdowns during his junior season. He might not have the ideal speed for a WR at the next level but if you can get a guy who has a 6'4" frame on the defensive edge or at the TE position who can run a 4.6 forty, he would immediately become a threat. Kendall has received offers from Colorado, Colorado State and Wyoming and interest from Nebraska, LSU, Stanford, Texas and Boise State. Hopefully he will give the Buffs hometown and family preferential treatment next spring.
