Recruits Bet on Coach Prime’s Staying Power
The buzz surrounding Deion Sanders’ potential jump to the NFL has been building, but it seems top high school talent is banking on him sticking around Boulder. Case in point: four-star quarterback Julian Lewis, who committed to Colorado on Thursday, just days after parting ways with USC.
A Game-Changing Commitment
Lewis, who visited Colorado two weeks ago and Georgia last Saturday, brings an impressive resume to the table. In 11 games this season, he’s completed 200 of 257 passes for a staggering 2,842 yards, 40 touchdowns, and only four interceptions. This commitment is a significant coup for Coach Prime and his staff, particularly as they prepare to lose star quarterback Shedeur Sanders to the NFL draft.
From Underdogs to Contenders
What a difference a season makes. Just a few months ago, Colorado was struggling to find its footing, with a nail-biting win over North Dakota State and a dispiriting loss to Nebraska. Fast-forward to today, and the Buffs are riding high at 8-2, favored to win the Big 12, and poised to secure an automatic bid to the College Football Playoff.
The Coach Prime Effect
It’s hard to deny the impact Coach Prime has had on Colorado’s program. In just two years, he’s transformed a struggling team into a national contender, with a potential Heisman Trophy winner to boot. And now, with Lewis on board, the Buffs are set up for sustained success beyond this season. It’s a remarkable turnaround, one that’s got fans and recruits alike taking notice.
A Bright Future Ahead
As the college football landscape continues to shift, one thing is clear: Coach Prime’s influence is here to stay. With Lewis leading the charge, Colorado is poised to become a perennial powerhouse, and recruits are taking notice. The future is bright in Boulder, and it’s hard not to get excited about what’s to come.
