CU Buffs football’s 2023 class sets multiple program records
By most statistical measures, Colorado football’s recruiting class of 2023 — including high school signers and inbound transfers — is impressive. The next few months will continue to be critical, but the Buffs seem on course for an improved season.
On Wednesday, the national signing period began, 17 high school prospects, two JUCO transfers, nine graduate transfers and 14 undergraduate transfers signed with the Buffs. Head coach Deion Sanders, however, said Colorado is far from over.
Below are some of the new records/best programs Coach Prime’s first recruiting class has set, according to CU Sports Information:
