The linebackers coach for the Colorado University football team, Andre Hart, has acknowledged the need to strengthen his position group, particularly by exploring the transfer portal for new talent. After spring practice, Hart expressed the team’s targeted approach in identifying potential recruits for offensive and defensive lines and linebackers as areas requiring reinforcement. “We have been looking (at the transfer portal) and we have some guys kind of figured out that we’d like to go after if that’s the case,” said Hart.

Notably, Darvon Hubbard, Andrew Chamblee, and Reuben Unije stand out among them, all of whom specialize in offensive line positions, which can boost protection for Shedeur Sanders next season. On the defensive end, players like Bill Norton from Arizona, Isaiah Raikes from USC, and Joshua Harris from Ole Miss are predicted as suitable additions to bolster the Buffaloes’ defensive line.
