Colorado head coach Deion Sanders isn’t concerned by the numerous departures his team saw in the transfer portal this week.
“Please have some faith in me,” Sanders said Thursday, according to ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg. “We good. We’re alright. What happens with the portal, and you guys need to know, a lot of people are fighting for backups. When a guy’s a starter and he transfers, you’ve got to really think about that.”
Fourteen Colorado players entered the portal this week, including former five-star cornerback Cormani McClain, tight end Chamon Metayer, and running back Alton McCaskill, a former AAC Rookie of the Year at Houston. McClain was one of the Buffaloes’ biggest splashes in 2023, but he failed to make an impact last year and was benched midway through the season.
