LCHS’ Hout Breaks BSU’s North Idaho Drought
Linebacker Byron Hout on Wednesday plans to do something no North Idaho football star has done in more than a decade. Sign a letter of intent to play for the Boise State Broncos. Hout, named the Idaho Statesman's 5A All-Idaho Player of the Year as a junior in 2006 and the Gatorade Player of the Year for Idaho as a senior in 2007, terrorized offensive linemen, quarterbacks and ball carriers the past three seasons at Lake City High in Coeur d'Alene. The Colorado transplant - he moved to Idaho six years ago - chose the Broncos in part because he had become a fan of the up-and-coming program. Washington and Idaho also offered him scholarships, he said/Chad Cripe, Idaho Statesman. More here.
