Things haven't gone quiet for Colorado Buffaloes recruiting since Laviska Shenault committed on April 22nd but there hasn't been a new verbal commitment in two months. Richmond, Texas running back Alex Fontenot changed that today by committing to head to Boulder for his college ball.
Fontenot is a consensus 3-star running back out of George Ranch High School in Richmond. He is being recruited by Darian Hagan and while he hasn't yet been to Boulder he felt like he didn't need to wait any longer. He split carries with a TCU commit last season and was still named first-team all-district.
