The Buffs suffered 4-8 in Coach Prime’s first season as the head coach. But let the past remain in the past because a new chapter is about to unfold. The Buffs HC is serious in his recruitment process as more players commit to Colorado. 

The Deion Sanders effect is real! Despite a below-average performance, he still manages to get top players to commit to the program. He has been telling his viewers that he had plans on recruitment and his statement is getting clear as they bagged four more transfers. And three of them are 4-star prospects.

Colorado’s transfer portal power rises as they get four more commits 

Colorado fortified their offensive line recently bagging even a 5-star OT Jordan Seaton. But now Coach Prime Deion Sanders is taking his recruitment a notch further as he brings more elite players to prepare for the 2024 season. The HC added four major players to the Buffs roster, including a QB and three 4-star transfers. 

Former LSU DE Quency Wiggins, Alabama defensive tackle Anquin Barnes, TCU receiver Cordale Russell, and Vanderbilt QB Walter Taylor committed to Coach Prime in a matter of hours. With their arrival, Colorado has now bagged a total of 14 transfers since December 9, including five offensive linemen.
