17 seats are empty in the CU locker room following the large-scale transfer portal entries out of the university. Cormani McClain, credited as the top ten all-time recruit in CU history by Buffs Beat, was the deepest slash Deion Sanders and Co. faced thanks to the transfer portal. Dylan Edwards, one whom Deion Sanders trained since he was 4 years old, too entered the transfer portal. Savion Washington, Jaden Miller-Jones, Eric Brantley Jr., David Conner, and Chazz Wallace were some other hurting transfers among others.

press conference, Coach Prime only wished the best in the future for all the players who entered the transfer portal. Partly because he knew that he would soon welcome new players from the transfer portal. Confessing about it in his pre-Spring game interview, Sanders removed the veil on the news of new transfers coming in.

“I don’t know if we have we released the commits because there’s been several that’s committed. I think it’s a couple more. Well, I think it’s about five more that’s here right now that’s committed. I don’t know if we released it yet, but you’ll hear about it really soon,” Sanders said. The anticipation surrounding the next players is on the rise since the players that have already committed to Colorado look quite promising.

Transfer commits for Deion Sanders and Co.

Currently, CU boasts of 4 official commits this spring per ESPN reports. Ohio State Buckeyes Dallan Hayden, a four-star prospect junior RB, is one. Hayden established himself as a true freshman at the Buckeyes with 553 yards and 5 TDs in 10 games. Next is the No.3 overall ranked in ESPN’s transfer player ratings Dayon Hayes from Pittsburgh.

The senior year DE would be the perfect cherry on top for the revamped CU D-line since he scored a staggering 27 tackles for a loss and 13 sacks during his 4 years with the Panthers. Also ranked as the most disruptive front-seven defenders in the ACC last season, Hayes would be the perfect addition to LaJohntay Wester’s blazing defense routes and would need to destroy the opposite offenses. Last year’s third-team All-MAC player for Ohio State Buckeyes Rayyan Buell is another DT joining the Buffs’ D-line.

The senior-year transfer accounted for 12. 5 tackles for loss, 4.5 sacks, and 30 total tackles. Peyton Kirkland is the last one on the officially released list. The three-star recruit, who redshirted his freshman season, would be a surprise for Buffs as he awaits the on-field action. With this, the Buffs roster would have other 5 players coming in. This would equate to Deion Sanders and Co. getting supplied with enough talent to reach straight to the National Championship. Will they? Drop your thoughts in the comments.
