Son of former WWE star Bill Goldberg, Gage, was this close to playing for Alabama, but he changed his mind once Nick Saban retired...
quote:

Cue Gage's WWE legend dad, who called Deion Sanders -- his former teammate with the Falcons in the early 90s -- and next thing ya know, Goldberg's on his way to Colorado!

Gage, a 205-pound middle linebacker out of Boerne Champion High School in Texas, spoke with us days after he announced he'd be playing for the NFL Hall of Famer as a preferred walk-on with the Univerisity of Colorado.

He’ll do well considering there’s no expectation to play defense in the Big 12. Texas was a rare exception last year.

uh, Bama didn't offer him. He's a preferred walk-on at Colorado.

That defense needed a lot of help, and he still couldn't get a scholarship?

Good for him. But he's a walkon listed as a zero star recruit.

He can go there and hear Deion talk about bags , and stare in the mirror at himself so he can keep an eye on the best 4-8 coach in D1
