Yellowstone Actor's Super-Athletic Son Opts For College in Texas

He stands 6 feet, 5 inches tall, and weighs somewhere in the neighborhood of 220 pounds. He can catch, run, and block with the best of them, and he's one of the better players on his talent-laden high school football team.

He has received several offers to play Division 1 football at universities such as Mississippi State and Stetson. He is also the first-born of one of the hottest actors in Hollywood.

On his Instagram page, Cole Hauser recently announced that his son will be going to college at Texas Christian University (TCU) in Fort Worth, Texas. The proud dad relayed in his post...

Even though Ryland Houser is proudly sporting TCU gear, I couldn't find any references as to whether he would be playing football for the Horned Frogs. At the very least, I would expect his talent level to get him preferred walk-on status for the runners-up of the 2023 BCS National Championship.

If you read deeper into Cole's Instagram post, Ryland has a teammate, Nick Venezia, who also looks to be a stand-out receiver. He will be playing football at the storied IMG Academy in Florida before choosing a college team to play for after graduating in 2024.

Good luck to you, Ryland. You've made the right choice to come to Texas.
