FORT COLLINS – You’d be hard-pressed to pick someone other than Michael Gallup to be Colorado State’s most valuable player on offense through eight games. But the journey for the junior from Monroe, Georgia hasn’t been easy.
The 6-foot-2, 210-pounder held offers in high school from Kentucky, Missouri and North Carolina, just to name a few. But he wound up at Butler Country Community College in Kansas where he totaled 780 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns as a freshman in 2014.
The following year, Gallup was limited to just four games because of an ankle injury. But his committment to CSU for 2016 turned out to be a great decision.
