THE Colorado Buffaloes and Deion Sanders brought in a 40+ player transfer portal class to completely overhaul a 3-9 roster.
Two of the recruited players succeeded The 100 best ESPN players of the 2025 season. Former Bowling Green Gideon ESPN Lampron landed at No. 80 on the list, while San Jose State wide receiver Danny Scudero came in at No. 61.

Scudero led the nation in receiving yards (1,291) while adding 10 touchdowns, earning him a semifinalist for the Biletnikoff Award and a second-team AP All-American. At 5-foot-9, Scudero is one of the smallest receivers in college football, but appears to be an ideal fit for offensive coordinator Brennan Marion’s system.
Lampron was arguably the best linebacker in the Group of Six as the only FBS player to record at least 100 tackles and at least 15 tackles for loss. He is an elite off-ball linebacker and a serious candidate to start for the Buffs.
With Lampron and Scudero, Colorado signed two of the best players in the Group of Six, and both should be huge contributors in 2026.
