Welp. It’s about time we start the 80s. I am looking forward to glam rock, tights, and big hair. From the guys! The next guy technically doesn’t have a number (as of this writing) and we had a spot to fill. I wanted to make sure we covered him. With 89 Days left until kickoff…
#89, Kobe Young, RS Senior, WR
(Note: he technically has an updated headshot from Cal State Fullerton but I am going with his Boise State version.)

How’d he get to The Blue™?
Funnily enough via the basketball team. For the most part, he did transfer to Cal State Fullerton to finish out his basketball career. But then he texted Coach Danielson and now he’s back. It’s the circle of life.
Nickname
“Football Mamba”
Yeah this one is a stretch.

Career Highlights
He did a lot of basketball stuff for Boise State and also Cal State Fullerton. But football stuff? Not yet. But looking forward to see what he’s going to do.
2025 Prospectus
The wide receiving core needed some help after this year what with some players defecting or… you know… not being on the roster for some reason or another. But a 6′ 7″ guy who can literally go get the ball if Madsen just throws it up there? Yes please. Not sure if he will be a Day One impact player but cannot wait to see him in action.
Also, he was on Jay Tust’s Sports Bar if you were so inclined.
Is he on Twi/X?
Yeppers.
Completely made up fact
After his time with the football team, Mr. Young plans on trying out for the Boise State men’s tennis team. Get the trifecta.
This will prove to be very interesting.
