I don't think so, and most university professors couldn't identify a meteorite if it hit them on the head. Can't tell you how many times I get calls saying "but the geology professor says this is a meteorite". Looks like this one is bogus too. But these local papers LOVE printing stories like this.

Check out this article about a rock found in Greely Colorado. True? or
False?

Doesn't look like any meteorite I've ever seen, seems more like a schist or
something with a high crystalline content.
