College career

The university wanted him first to play as running back and wide receiver with more focus on the running part of the game, but after injuries to their top wide receivers, he was only used as a wide receiver in his college years. In his first season Kaepercolin only played eight games for the Navada Wolf Packs. He had 25 receptions for 312 yards and two touchdowns.
