Deion Sanders is succeeding in rebuilding Colorado: Adds four recruits in 24 hours

Article arrow_drop_down

Deion Sanders must start the 2025-2026 NCAA season from scratch. The departure of his stars, Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter, plus a mass exodus of players through the transfer portal will force Coach Prime to bring his A-game to surround his new protégé, Julian Lewis, with a contending team.

Criticism from former cornerback Cormani McClain-who said Colorado played for “clicks” and therefore preferred to transfer to a “real” program-really hurted Sanders and Colorado’s reputation. The 2024-2025 offseason saw 26 players enter the transfer portal, leaving Coach Prime with a monumental task ahead.

However, true to form, Sanders turned the odds around and began rebuilding his team by snatching Lewis from USC to Boulder. One step at the time, he is surrounding the young quarterback with a team that can make a deep playoff run.

Coach Prime hits the recruiting trail

Sanders has been widely criticized for relying more on the transfer portal than the recruiting trail to build his team. Using the portal, the Buffs head coach added defensive back Noah King, safety John Slaughter, offensive tackle Larry Johnson, and running back DeKalon Taylor in less than 24 hours.

Nevertheless, Sanders has proven he can recruit and has already interviewed with the second-best receiver in the country, Cederian Morgan. Also pursued by Georgia, Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, and Florida, Morgan was greatly impressed by Sanders. “I’m excited to meet Coach Prime and the staff,” the young receiver stated.

The former NFL icon also has his eye on Vance Spafford, another five-star recruit who has already committed to Georgia. Sanders hopes to pull another Lewis and convince Spafford to join Colorado.

Sanders is keeping an eye on the defense too, and has interviews scheduled with four-star cornerback Dorian Barney aiming to beat out Georgia Tech, Michigan, North Carolina, Penn State, and Texas A&M to recruit the defensive star.

JuJu is making himself at home in Colorado

While Coach Prime continues to seek fresh blood for the Buffaloes, his top recruit of the 2025 class, Julian Lewis, is working to strengthen his ties with the other recruits. JuJu hosted his fellow rookies at his home last weekend, demonstrating his leadership skills.

The competition between Lewis and newcomer Kaidon Salter for Colorado’s starting job will be fierce; however, this initiative by Lewis surely earned him points with Coach Prime, who expects his quarterbacks to be more than just leaders on the field.
