Sanders Gears Up for Transfer Portal Hustle as Stars Head to the NFL
Sanders is facing a major shakeup as stars Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter prepare to take their talents to the NFL. Their departure leaves Coach Prime in a crucial position as he looks to maintain the Colorado Buffaloes’ momentum.
But don’t count Sanders out; he’s a master of the transfer portal hustle.
Analyst Jay Smith believes Sanders’ comments about Colorado’s bowl plans position him to dominate the portal when it opens on Dec. 9. Sanders made it clear: Colorado won’t rely heavily on high school recruits but will aggressively pursue talent through the portal, aiming to match last year’s success.
With Sanders’ charisma, national media attention, and a track record of prioritizing players’ success, Colorado remains an enticing destination. Expect new talent eager for exposure, growth, and national spotlight opportunities to flock to Boulder.
