Coach Prime & Colorado to host multiple blue-chip recruits & transfers for 2024 spring game
Contrary to what some in the national media have said, Deion “Coach Prime” Sanders’ Colorado Buffaloes have improved and will continue to improve throughout the spring transfer portal period. Dayan Hayes, Payton Kirkland, Rayyan Buell and Dallan Hayden committed to Colorado after visiting last weekend. The Buffs and many other schools await the decisions of Nikhai Hill-Green and Elijah Herring but could earn commitments from some of the players below.
Multiple 2025 and 2026 recruits will also be in Boulder and it wouldn’t be a surprise to get a commitment or two over the weekend.
