Colorado Buffaloes Secure Five 2026 Recruits Including Key Linebacker
The University of Colorado Buffaloes football program, led by head coach Deion Sanders, is actively building its 2026 recruiting class with several key commitments and ongoing battles for top prospects. Three-star linebacker Colby Johnson, ranked No. 104 nationally at his position, committed to Colorado over other schools like San Diego State and Washington State, marking the fifth recruit in the class. Meanwhile, the recruiting efforts are bolstered by NFL rookie and Colorado legend Shedeur Sanders, who has been instrumental in attracting top wide receiver prospects such as five-star Cederian Morgan and four-star Jordan Clay, both of whom could significantly improve Colorado's recruiting rankings. The Buffaloes are competing in high-profile recruiting battles, including for defensive lineman Joseph Peko, who is choosing between Colorado and North Carolina, coached by Bill Belichick, with family ties to Colorado potentially giving the Buffaloes an edge. Despite being ranked last in the Big 12 for their 2026 class so far, the involvement of Shedeur Sanders and recent commitments suggest Colorado is making strides to build a more competitive team. These recruiting developments come as Coach Prime recovers from health issues, with his son’s presence helping maintain momentum in their efforts to secure top talent.
