Colorado Buffaloes land three-star prospect Pookie Maka

Three-star outside linebacker Pookie Maka from Murray, UT has chosen the University of Colorado over 11 other schools. The six-foot-three 202-pound high school senior from Cottonwood High School was ranked as the fifth best prospect coming out of Utah.

In high school, Maka played out of a three point stance but since the Buffaloes use a 3-4, he will most likely play outside linebacker. He is seen as a raw prospect yet he still drew the eye of some major programs like Utah, Oregon State, Washington, Washington State and Wisconsin.
