During his junior season the pro scouts and collegiate All-America voters began to take notice of Folston's abilities on the field.
Folston earned ULM's Iron Man Award and was chosen to play in the East–West Shrine Game and the Hula Bowl at the conclusion of his senior season.
Playing with those traits put him in position to be inducted into the University of Louisiana at Monroe Athletics Hall of Fame in 2010.
Folston was selected by the Los Angeles Raiders in the second round of the 1994 NFL draft.
