He played at the University of Houston where he started all 13 games his senior season, finishing the year with 69 tackles, 5.5 for loss, two sacks, two interceptions, four fumble recoveries and two forced fumbles. In his four seasons at Houston he had 164 tackles, 13 tackles for a loss, eight passes defensed, six fumble recoveries, five sacks, two interceptions and two forced fumbles.
