No one has owned the NCAA’s transfer portal quite like the CU Buffs since Coach Prime arrived in Boulder, Colorado, as they possess the nation’s top transfer class by a wide margin.

The gap between Colorado’s No. 1 transfer class and the No. 2 transfer class (Louisiana State) is the same as the gap between the No. 2 transfer class and the No. 5 transfer class (Southern California), but if you listen to head coach Deion Sanders, the Colorado Buffaloes are only getting started.

In an interview on “Thee Pregame Show,” one of Coach Prime’s many in-house media operations, the head coach expressed his confidence in the fact that the CU Buffs were still well-positioned to add a lot more talent this offseason, thanks to the portal.

“Out there ‘looking?’,” Coach Prime jokingly responded when asked if CU was continuing to look into the transfer portal. “You know, we ain’t no joke in this party. I believe — I hadn’t checked recently — but I think we’re number one. And we ain’t got started. We haven’t gotten started in the portal yet. We’re about to really get started, as soon as we’re allowed to.”

That might come as a surprise to some Buffaloes fans, but it shouldn’t. Under Coach Prime, Colorado has always been in advantageous position, in regard to the transfer portal, and that will continue as the portal opens back up this summer.

All around the nation right now, you have upperclassmen returning to the gridiron for spring practice, only to discover they aren’t slated to start at their program. Maybe you’re a talented four-star lineman for an SEC blue blood, with just one year of eligibility left, but you can’t beat out the five-star phenom they just recruited at your position.

What do you do? Where can you find a guaranteed starting opportunity?

How about signing on with the program that just went 1-11? They probably have a need for Power-5-level, starting-caliber talent, at most positions.

Generally that 1-11 school wouldn’t be a recruiting destination, but, with Coach Prime being Coach Prime, Boulder has quickly become one of the most desirable landing spots in the realm of college football, and that image should only continue to grow with time.

Get ready folks. They’re coming.
