A talent‑laden roster arrives in Boulder
ESPN analyst Bill Connelly has placed the Colorado Buffaloes’ transfer portal class among the top three in the nation, a endorsement that comes as the program seeks to bounce back from a 3‑9 record in 2026.
The influx includes proven FBS starters and former blue‑chippers such as Danny Scudero, Kam Perry, DeAndre Moore Jr. and Boo Carter, giving the Buffaloes a depth that many analysts have overlooked. Coach Deion Sanders has overseen the acquisition of talent that, according to Connelly, exceeds the hype surrounding the team.
Chemistry will be the decisive factor, and new offensive coordinator Brennan Marion is expected to accelerate the integration of the new pieces, ensuring the unit clicks before the season begins.
Colorado will open fall camp on August 2 in Colorado Springs before kicking off the campaign on September 3 in Atlanta against Georgia Tech, a game that could set the tone for the year.
