The move reunites Valecce with his former head coach Steve Addazio, who took over as head coach of the Rams in 2020. This is the fourth Eagle to transfer to CSU, joining offensive linemen Elijah Johnson, Adam Korutz, Cam Reddy and earlier this year defensive lineman Mike Ciaffoni joined up with Addazio in Fort Collins.
Valecce, a redshirt junior appeared in just six games during his time at the Heights, with all of those appearances coming in 2019. He went 3-7 throwing for 27 yards in those outings. Valecce was a three star quarterback out of New York coming out of high school, but would have struggled to find his way on to the field with Phil Jurkovec and Dennis Grosel both above him on the depth chart.
Quarterback Sam Johnson, who also entered the transfer portal, has yet to find a new program.
