Colorado State’s 6-foot-7 project tackle brings rare size and some real upside
John Holthaus enters the 2026 season as a redshirt sophomore at Colorado State, and the buzz is about traits more than box-score noise: he’s a massive 6-foot-7, 315-pound offensive lineman with a 3-star pedigree, captain experience in high school, and a reputation for finishing plays with edge. He redshirted in 2024, so he’s still in the development curve rather than the polished-pro ready lane, but that also means there’s room for a big jump. If you want length, frame, and developmental upside, he’s a legit name to watch.
