The Spring Season is going to be all interesting for the Colorado Buffaloes with all the revamping. In the latest press conference arranged for the Spring Season, Buffaloes’ quarterback, Shedeur Sanders gave a shout-out for another rising star the team owns, freshman Jordan Seaton. Last season, Shedeur suffered 52 sacks. 

During the conference, Sanders came up with a glowing endorsement of Seaton’s abilities that hints at a transformative journey ahead for the Colorado offensive line. Do you know that Seaton was the player who did not immediately sign with the Buffaloes during the early signing period?

Shedeur is all confident about Seaton’s potential

Last season, the Buffaloes experienced a nosedive to 4-8 and Deion Sanders’ squad went winless over the last six weeks of the season. Shedeur is not being at his best, this time and will have a formidable offensive line in front of him now that Seaton has signed with the Buffaloes. Shedeur too expressed surprise at the high school tackle’s confidence. “No, I’m extremely confident. I’ll say Jordan definitely showed me that he’s ready. He showed me that a lot that I really didn’t expect that much from him,” he said.

What appeals to him most about Seaton is his ability to absorb wisdom from his peers and his incessant urge to learn. Shedeur further rallied, “But really just the fact he’s able to listen on and off the field and just get wisdom just from other players likewise as him. So I’m really excited, I’m really happy about Jordan. I’m happy he made the decision because I feel like it’s the right one and he’s definitely a generational player”. Seaton’s enthusiasm comes from his tough journey since he had to fight through the odds about joining the CU roster.

Fulfillment of Seaton’s pursuit

On Wednesday, Seaton startled the fans with an interesting trivia about how things worked against his favor on the signing day. The highly touted offensive lineman was in Miami with his family when, to his surprise, he found that there was no Wi-Fi. Unfortunately, the time coincided with the form submission window for the Buffaloes as Seaton candidly revealed, “So we couldn’t submit the form. We just didn’t have any wi-fi, so the form couldn’t get submitted to get signed. So that was crazy.” But ultimately, he succeeded in landing in Colorado.

Earlier too, Seaton was courted by Tennessee as the program offered him multi-million dollars. However, he turned down the lucrative offer to fulfill his pursuit to be under Deion Sanders’ mentorship and join the Buffaloes squad, which utterly came as a shock to the fans. Ultimately, Jordan Seaton achieved what he had dreamed of. Now that he has garnered support from his fellow teammates like Shedeur, the player is all set to give his best to propel the team to greater success and replace last season’s record this spring.
