Despite uncertainty at position, sophomore is ready to play

In the Cougars’ season-opener against the Tennessee Golden Eagles, Cougar fans received a pleasant surprise after sophomore quarterback-turned-wide receiver Kyle Postma made his wide receiver debut, grabbing four catches for 82 yards, including a 29-yard touchdown in the win.

Postma, who joined the team as a walk-on in 2013, used a redshirt season and transferred to Trinity Valley Community College to play quarterback, where he led the team to a 12-0 season.

After returning to Houston, Postma was named to third-string quarterback at the end of training camp, but quickly moved to wide receiver due to the lack of depth at the position.
