The stage is about to lit—Colorado Buffaloes in their slick Black & Gold, ready to take on No. 17 BYU in the final game of their season at the Alamo Bowl. But before the kickoff, all eyes were on QB Julian Lewis, the 5-star prodigy and Shedeur Sanders’ heir. Not for his game—oh no—but for a pre-game meetup with a famous rapper. Fans went wild, but not in the good way. They’re trolling him online, saying he didn’t even look hyped to meet the guy. “No energy,” vibes—the comments are brutal. Julian, though? Couldn’t care less, straight unbothered. As the game kicks off, the chatter’s still louder than the action.

Let’s get real about Julian Lewis. The guy is a walking highlight reel. With over 10,000 passing yards, 140 touchdowns, and an undefeated junior season that earned him Gatorade Georgia Football Player of the Year, he’s not just the future of Colorado football—he’s the present. But the internet wouldn’t catch a break.

His decision to commit to Coach Prime and reclassify from the 2026 class to 2025 already made waves, but now fans are poking at every move he makes. And when Key Glock, a platinum-selling rapper, walked in for a pre-game chat, it was as if the internet low-key handed its next meme on a silver platter.
But here’s the kicker: Julian didn’t look impressed. No excitement, weak hand-shake—just a kid sitting there like he’s waiting for his food at a drive-thru. Fans took this as an opportunity to not only roast the interaction but also question the legitimacy of Julian Lewis.
The fans couldn’t stop trolling Julian Lewis on X
When Buffaloes Insider uploaded his clip on X, the fans were to throw some hate online, cus why not? Hating on a kid who’s just following his dream is cool, right?
A fan started with “5 stars?” Some fans are still salty that Julian chose Colorado over Georgia or USC, and they let it show. Five stars? More like a soft three for picking Colorado over Bulldogs. Yikes. The fans wanted him to stay at home. They are low-key mad big time for choosing Deion Sanders’ Buffaloes. Another fan tweeted classic “Who?” This one hit both Julian and as fans acted like they’d never heard of Carrollton prodigy. Like Julian Lewis? Never heard of her. To set the record straight, Julian’s numbers are historic—he’s thrown for 10,484 yards and 140 touchdowns across three high school seasons.
This fan tweeted, “LMAO, buddy was ‘Who TF is that!” like Key Glock? Is that a sloppy second of G-shock? This reaction had people questioning Julian’s energy during the interaction. Julian looked at that rapper like he was a substitute teacher. Ain’t gonna lie here. Julian looked like he didn’t want Key Glock on locker room. The Energy was so off and awkward like the Buffs at half-time today.
Ain’t gonna lie, this one low-key valid, though. “What’s the obsession with aligning your program with rappers?” The trolls didn’t hold back on Colorado’s PR game, either. First it’s Lil Wayne at the spring game and Travis Hunter’s Heisman night, now it’s Key Glock pre-game. Who’s next? Diddy for full time? Why is Deion’s squad obsessed with rappers to this extent? No wonder why they are literally called ‘Social Media‘ team that plays for clicks.
This one says everything, “He does not care who that is” If Julian’s body language said anything, it’s that he wasn’t exactly star-struck or fan-girling. Look, Key Glock might not be Big-timer but ain’t gonna lie, Julian could’ve done better here. But also gotta understand the context & room. Whether it was nerves or pure focus, Julian clearly wasn’t in the mood for small talk.
Anyway, trolls aside, Julian Lewis low-key built for moments like this. The kid’s got stats for days, a future brighter than stadium lights, and the full backing of Coach Prime. As for the internet? They’ll always find something to hate on, but Julian’s too busy plotting championships to care.
