From a poster on VQ:
Colson's parents passed away when he was young in Hati. His guardians/parents adopted him.
He just happens to be a badass at football. And his guardians/parents just happen to be transplants from Michigan, who went to Michigan.
Another quick note. Michigan has done a great job with his recruitment. There is a coach on Mich staff that is also Hatian and is playing a big role in the comfort of him attending Michigan.
Colson does see a lot of his peers at Ravenwood starting to get accepted to UT, and plan on attending UT... So yes there is a lot of UT around him. He likes the Vols.
But, i still thing he ends up at Michigan
