Deion Sanders' Colorado Secures High-Profile Recruits in National Recruiting Weekend

Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes are aggressively rebuilding their football program through significant recruiting efforts and transfer portal acquisitions. They recently added former Maryland offensive tackle Andre Roye Jr. to strengthen their offensive line, addressing a key weakness after allowing 43 sacks last season. On the recruiting front, the Buffaloes are targeting top-tier high school talent, including five-star wide receiver Cederian Morgan, who visited Boulder and could potentially commit, bringing size and speed to replace key NFL-bound receivers. Colorado is also pursuing four-star linebacker DQ Forkpa, an IMG Academy transfer, as part of their broader strategy to attract elite recruits, particularly from IMG. Sanders emphasizes early playing time and NFL development, leveraging his coaching staff's professional experience to compete with traditional powerhouses like Alabama, Georgia, and Clemson. With these moves, Colorado aims to build a competitive roster capable of challenging for the Big 12 title and a College Football Playoff spot.
