Deion Sanders outlined his strategy for utilizing the spring transfer portal window in a press conference ahead of Colorado's upcoming spring game. The Buffaloes have already added wide receiver Sincere Brown and offensive lineman Xavier Hill, with a focus on enhancing various positions, particularly in the running back department following Isaiah Augustave's departure.
Sanders emphasized a commitment to strengthening the team's running game with the acquisitions made, aiming to secure additional running backs from the transfer portal. The coach expressed confidence in the offensive line and coaching staff's ability to support this strategy. Additionally, Colorado is actively recruiting defensive backs to reinforce the secondary, with kicker being the only position Sanders deems secure following improvements in that area.
As Colorado prepares for its spring game, the program anticipates more player commitments after hosting several prospects for visits. With a challenging Big 12 schedule ahead, bolstering the team through the transfer portal is crucial for the Buffaloes to elevate their competitiveness within the conference.
