It's still VERY early in the 2024 recruiting cycle, but the Buffs have jumped to No. 15 already in the overall team recruiting rankings for the class with today's addition of mid-level 3-star offensive line commit Talan Chandler. So far, Colorado has an average star rating of 3.25, which is better than four of the teams ahead of it on the list. Of the teams among that group with a better overall star ranking only three of them (Florida, Ohio State & Michigan State) have the same amount or fewer commits so far. That is all to say that it has been a strong start to the cycle for CU and it's only going to improve.
A commitment from Ju'Juan Johnson tomorrow would bump the Buffs up two spots to No. 13 allowing them to leapfrog Michigan State and Texas Tech (which has 7 commitments) in the Rivals rankings.
