Colorado football secured four recruiting wins to begin July, which have drastically improved their class of 2026.
Offensive tackles Colby Johnson and Xavier Payne, along with defensive back D’Montae Tims and linebacker Carson Crawford, all joined the Buffs since July 1.
The four additions raise Colorado’s recruiting class to eight total commitments after a slow start to this year’s cycle. After spending much of the spring outside the top 100 nationally, the Buffs are now No. 88 in the nation but still rank last in the Big 12.
Deion Sanders and company still have plenty of work to do if they want another top 25 recruiting class, but with the recent wave of commitments and a few others expected soon, momentum is building.
Many have suggested that Deion Sanders’ absence from the program while dealing with an unspecified health issue has hurt Colorado’s recruiting efforts. However, with Sanders back with the team after his appearance at Big 12 media days this week, it suggests the program’s recruiting efforts are looking up as the program gears up to begin preseason camp in a couple of weeks.
