Student-Athletes Coming From All Over the Globe to Play at Boise State
Defensive end Elliot Hoyte of Tavistock, England has accepted a scholarship offer to play at Boise State and will enroll in school this coming January. Hoyte, who has been called the best defensive line prospect in ten years, joins an already stellar 2012 recruiting class at Boise State. Meanwhile, Rory Connop (6-4, 265) from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada has chosen to play at Boise State over offers from Kansas, Pittsburgh and Tulsa.
Hoyte's father, Nigel, played in the World Football League in the 1990's and is now a national team coach in the U.K.
“I still wake up in the morning and read the letter they sent me — it still feels pretty surreal,” Elliot Hoyte told the Tavistock Times Gazette. “It’s really the opportunity I’ve been waiting for. I’m really looking forward to it — I’m a bit apprehensive, I don’t think there’s anything I can’t handle from the sporting side, the only thing I think I will struggle with is not seeing my family for such a long time.”
Connop never played high school football but played with the West Edmonton Raides football club.
