Buford (Georgia) receiver and cornerback Kyle Carpenter announced he would be Boulder bound.<\/p>\n<p>The 6-foot-3, 200-pounder was a high school teammate of Buffs three-star linebacker Mantrez Walker. Carpenter ended last season with nine receptions for 142 yards and a touchdown in nine games. He also split time as a two-sport athlete with basketball being his secondary\u00a0focus. In the first round of this year&#8217;s GHSA 6A state playoffs, Carpenter finished with 17 points in Buford&#8217;s win.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t be surprised if he tries to suit up for Tad Boyle&#8217;s team as well.\u00a0&#8220;If the coaches allow me to play both sports, I would love to,&#8221; Carpenter told Athlon Sports.<\/p>\n<p>Colorado&#8217;s 2025 high school class bumps up to 14 players. Carpenter\u00a0is the third Peach State prospect for the Buffs this year, along with Walker and five-star QB Julian Lewis. It&#8217;s clear Sanders and his staff are sending a message to the rest of the Big 12 as next season quickly approaches. They&#8217;re going to compete and recruit in the southern region of the country by any means necessary.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The facility was like no other,&#8221; Carpenter said. &#8220;The coaching staff with Coach Prime is the greatest to ever do it. Everybody in boulder just feels like family as soon as I came in.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sports.yahoo.com\/article\/shedeur-sanders-browns-no-2-070414225.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Related: Shedeur Sanders Should be Browns&#039; No. 2 QB, says Cleveland Hosts;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Related: Shedeur Sanders Should be Browns&#8217; No. 2 QB, says Cleveland Hosts<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Carpenter is ready to get to work in Boulder and says he hopes to have the opportunity to be the Buffs&#8217; next two-way star. With Travis Hunter&#8217;s historic Heisman win, Sanders could start trending with players ready to be featured on both sides of the ball.
