At long last, Coach Prime and the Colorado Buffaloes have bolstered their running back room.
After multiple months of concern only heightening amongst the fanbase, the Buffs managed to snag former Mississippi State and Coastal Carolina running back Simeon Price from the transfer portal, adding some much-needed depth to an already shallow corps.
Price, a 6-foot-0, 215-pound back, has bounced around during his three seasons of college ball. The former top-100 recruit from Pensacola, Florida, was an original recruit of Mike Leach to MSU, tallying 30 carries for 150 yards in 2022, along with a receiving touchdown.
After seeing reduced playtime following Leach’s passing in December of 2022, Price only saw five carries for 41 yards in the regular season and was granted a redshirt.
Price transferred to Coastal Carolina as a result of that tough 2023 season, but didn’t find much more success in Conway, only seeing 44 carries for 136 yards. He has yet to score a rushing touchdown at the college level, but did haul in a receiving TD in 2022.
Price comes to Boulder with one year of eligibility remaining, looking to finally get a fair shake at succeeding in college football. Although he profiles more as a depth piece, don’t be shocked to see Price see some playtime this season due to CU’s lack of players available in the backfield.
Welcome to Boulder, Simeon!
