It’s hard to think of a college football team with more offseason hype than the Colorado Buffaloes.

After a miserable 1-11 season in 2022, the Buffaloes hired Deion Sanders to be their new head coach, and suddenly the entire program has turned around.

In the span of days, Colorado went from an afterthought to one of the most intriguing teams in the country.

Coach Prime has transformed the entire program seemingly overnight, but his biggest moves have come via the transfer portal.

One look at Colorado’s depth chart reveals just how many transfers the team has brought in, and the quality of said transfers. In fact, the Buffaloes currently have the best transfer class in the country, according to 247Sports’ rankings.

The two biggest stars in the class both come from Sanders’ previous stop at Jackson State. Cornerback Travis Hunter was the top high school recruit in the 2022 class, and the lone five-star transfer this offseason.

Quarterback Shedeur Sanders is not only Deion’s son, but a dynamic playmaker who could thrive at the FBS level.

However, Hunter and Sanders have received so much hype that many of the other transfers have found themselves lost in the shuffle.

These players will also have a huge impact on the team, and really deserve some more spotlight. One of these players in particular stands out as Colorado Football’s sneakiest transfer portal move.

Without further ado, let’s meet that player.
