Colorado coach Rick Neuheisel hails Roy Detmer as a natural talent with strong game vision. Detmer, weighing about 185 pounds after reporting in at 6 feet 1 inch, impressed with a 418 yard freshman game against Oklahoma in 1992 and could be the Buffaloes' focal point as they push for an improved offense with limited depth behind him. Detmer is Ty Detmer's brother and has shown leadership and willingness to take risks on the field.
