Son of Popular TV Star Sets Visit to WVU Football

By: Justin Walker | WV Sports Chat


Per his X account, offensive line recruit Colt Hauser has scheduled an official visit to WVU football May 29-31.

Hauser is a 3-star recruit in the 2027 class according to 247 Sports. If his last name sounds familiar, it should. His father is none other than Cole Hauser; the actor who played Rip Wheeler on the popular television series, Yellowstone.

The West Palm Beach, FL native took an unofficial visit to Morgantown on March 10. Earlier this week, he received an official offer from Rich Rodriguez, along with a home visit from Lead Offensive Assistant Travis Trickett.

The offer list continues to grow for the Cardinal Newman High School standout. In addition to West Virginia, the 6-foot-1 inch, 280-pound lineman has received offers from North Carolina, NC State, Troy, FIU, Liberty, Navy, Rhode Island and Army. That list will likely continue to grow over the summer.

Should Hauser choose to play for WVU football, let’s hope he is as tough as the Rip character his dad played on Yellowstone; minus the train station of course.
