CHAPEL HILL
During his days at New Smyrna Beach High in Florida, there were no college scholarship offers for Cole Holcomb, at least none that are worthy of remembrance years later.
“I had a lot of D1-AA (offers),” Holcomb said, referring to the old name for lower-division FCS schools. “A lot of stuff like that, a lot of those kinds of offers. But nothing big time.”
Ask Holcomb what his best FCS offer was and he can't tell you. He doesn't know.
He doesn't know because his high school head coach, Lance Jenkins, didn't talk about those kinds of offers with Holcomb.
