Deion Sanders' recruiting strategy for the Colorado Buffaloes is showing its unique composition with a 40-40-20 plan, which aims for a mix of experienced and young talent. According to the plan, 40% of recruits should be graduate transfers, another 40% undergraduate transfers, and the remaining 20% high school signees. The current class surpasses these targets with 10 older transfers (45%), 7 younger transfers (32%), and 5 high school signees (23%). The highlight of the recruitment season is the signing of five-star offensive tackle Jordan Seaton, who is 6’6 and weighs 290 pounds, and is ranked as the No. 1 OT in the 2024 class by multiple sources, including the ESPN 300. Seaton's commitment to Colorado was secured despite a late push from Maryland and other schools, following National Signing Day which was on Wednesday and before the early signing day ended on Friday. His aggressive playing style has been praised by Coach Prime, who believes Seaton has the potential to be a first-round NFL Draft pick. The Buffaloes have also managed to secure 10 blue-chip commitments for 2024, including high school signees and transfer pledges.
