Colorado Joins Elite List with Offer to Prince Washington
Colorado has entered the fray for the 2027 Texas cornerback market by extending a scholarship to Prince Washington, a prospect who remains unranked yet holds ten offers from across the nation.
At 6‑foot‑1 and 185 pounds, Washington fits the classic outside cornerback build, a measurement that has attracted attention from programs seeking versatile defensive backs.
While Houston and North Texas are emerging as the front‑runners in his recruitment, the Buffaloes join a short list of Power Four schools that have made an official offer, underscoring the rarity of the opportunity.
Coaching Influence and Class Impact
Coach Aaron Fletcher, who oversees the Buffs’ cornerback unit, is the primary point of contact for Washington, guiding the dialogue between the player and the university staff.
Washington’s potential commitment would mark the second defensive back pledge in Colorado’s 2027 recruiting class, which already boasts three verbal commitments, including four‑star quarterback Andre Adams.
The Buffs’ class, though still taking shape, is positioned to become a focal point of the state’s recruiting narrative as the coaching staff leverages relationships with in‑state powerhouses.
