Just saw he posted that he is throwing his name in the ring for the NFL Draft. Bummer to lose a need position, although not high stats, and would be really surprised if he got close to drafted. Good luck to him.

We had a come from behind victory. ldbuff wins the whole thing! We also had a tie for second place with BuffFan42 coming up late and tying with MrMcbeath45, but BuffFan42 took 2nd place on the tiebreaker. rward won the final individual week with 8 correct. Congrats to the winners!

Is there a signing period, or can they sign on the spot? Verbal commits are always better than nothing, but the more of these guys that sign on the dotted-line ASAP the better.

Jadyn Robinson (formerly at Long Beach Poly, now at San Juan Hills in Orange County) trimmed his list to eight schools today and Colorado is part of the list. I spoke with him about the options remaining in the picture and you can read the full update at the link above. The Buffs have certainly grabbed his attention so far and he his brother, Jason, had plenty of interest in CU before picking Washington as a member of the 2024 class. A commitment to one of the schools could end up happening in short order. I'd say Utah and Texas are out front at the moment but there's time for others to make a move. His appreciation for Deion Sanders is certainly noteworthy and should have the Buffs in the picture up until he comes to a decision.

"I mean, Coach Prime (Deion Sanders), I feel like he won't teach just to be a better player but a better man in general. Make me a better person. I think coaching-wise, for the position I play, he can teach me stuff probably no other coach can teach me because he's been there and been in every situation that I want to be in as far as being in the game on and off the field."
