St. Martin Wide Receiver Commits to Colorado State

St. Martin High School is home to one of the nation’s leading receivers in Kalem Reddix. Upon graduation, the three star wideout now has a new place to call home at the Division I level.
Today, Reddix blew up Twitter with his commitment to Colorado State, passing on offers from ten other schools. One of these being Southern Miss where Reddix previously pledged his allegiance back in April before later decommitting.
Colorado St. became a serious contender earlier this season after Reddix went for more than 200 yards for the second time in his first three games.
Although Reddix has yet to visit the Rams out west in Fort Collins, he says he’s already sold on their family first approach. “Colorado State was always there and some big schools they would like contact me when I had a 200 yard game or like that six touchdown game. I just don’t hear from them for a while. They were loyal, even through a bad game, they still contacted me and told me to bounce back and come harder next week. It was major,” said Reddix.
St. Martin Head Coach Eddie Wayne Whitehead said, “The big games he had earlier I think really put him on the map, leading the nation in receiving and touchdowns for probably five or six weeks was really big.”
According to MaxPreps, the six foot senior is currently fifth in the country in receiving yards with more than 1,500 and tied for tenth in touchdowns with 19.
The Yellowjackets can clinch a playoff berth for the first time since 2003 with a home win over George County at 7 p.m. tomorrow.
