Colorado Buffaloes strike gold in the transfer portal with Santana Hopper and a revamped linebacker corps | Locked On Buffs Podcast The Colorado Buffaloes aggressively overhaul their defensive front, landing powerhouse defensive lineman Santana Hopper and stacking up proven linebacker talent through the transfer portal. Can Deion Sanders and his staff finally fix Colorado’s run defense and establish a new attitude on defense? Kevin Borba breaks down Colorado’s portal activity, spotlighting Hopper’s game-wrecking ability and All-Sun Belt pedigree from App State, plus the arrival of impact linebackers Gideon ESPN Lampron (Bowling Green), and Tyler Martinez (New Mexico State).

The show highlights Colorado’s strategic shift: prioritizing production and conference honors over raw recruiting stars, with eight new additions touting all-conference accolades. Are the Buffaloes now ready to compete in the trenches and revive their defense after a season of struggles? Deion Sanders’ portal magic is front-and-center, as Kevin Borba praises the coaching staff’s targeted approach and effort to build a hungry, accountable team. The episode also covers Coach Prime’s surprise hire: veteran Georgia high school championship coach Josh Niblett, expected to solidify connections in the recruiting hotbeds of the South as tight ends coach. Will Colorado’s aggressive transfer activity—and fresh recruiting pipelines—lift them out of last year’s defensive woes and spark a new era under Sanders? Find out as Locked On Buffs dives into portal strategy, coaching moves, and insider projections for the season ahead.

The Colorado Buffaloes are making waves this portal season as Deion Sanders, the king of the transfer portal, secures one of the most dynamic wide receivers in college football—Danny Scudero. Can Colorado’s explosive new-look offense and revamped defense launch the Buffs into Big 12 contention? Kevin Borba dives into the blockbuster pickup of Danny Scudero from San Jose State, lauding his game-breaking speed, yards-after-catch ability, and potential as a future Biletnikoff candidate. With big-play running mate Cam Perry also joining the fold, the Buffs’ receiver room is stacked with shifty, versatile weapons primed for the system of offensive coordinator Brennan Marion. Expect a high-flying attack featuring Joseph Williams as the big body, with Scudero and Perry orchestrating nightmares for opposing defenses. The transfer portal haul doesn’t stop at offense. 

Kevin Borba details key defensive pickups—App State’s Dylan Manuel, Albany’s Balancema Kamara, and North Dakota State standout Toby Anne—to shore up the pass rush and add much-needed depth to a depleted D-line. The conversation emphasizes the need for foundational players and developmental upside as the Buffs look to reload, not just rebuild. What’s next for Colorado? With visits scheduled for high-upside Texas transfers like running back C.J. Baxter and electric receiver DeAndre Moore, Kevin Borba weighs whether the Buffs can land more prime targets and turn a barren roster into a contender. The episode wraps with excitement for future additions, praise for the coaching staff’s aggressive portal approach, and a call to fans to stay tuned as the Deion Sanders era picks up steam.

The transfer portal floodgates have opened, and Colorado is all in as Kevin Borba reveals the Buffaloes’ aggressive pursuit of fresh talent. From standout defensive linemen like Ezra Christensen and proven playmakers such as Gideon “ESPN” Lampron to potential offensive stars DeAndre Moore and Chase Hendricks, Coach Prime’s staff is targeting a whopping 50 new faces to reboot the roster after a tumultuous season. Why the pivot to Group of Five and FCS prospects? 

Kevin Borba argues it’s the much-needed reality check for a program desperate to rebuild culture, compete immediately, and steer away from high-profile flameouts. In this episode, Kevin Borba breaks down each portal addition, explains the mindset shift behind prioritizing hungry, battle-tested players over big-name transfers, and calls on Buffs fans to embrace the new direction. Can this massive overhaul finally give Colorado the edge in the Big 12 and move past last year’s culture woes? 

Plus, a sobering look at the men’s basketball squad as they limp into conference play after back-to-back disappointing losses. With Big 12 play looming, will the Buffs find the consistency—and the spark—they desperately need?

The transfer portal exodus for the Colorado Buffaloes continued on Thursday as former standout corner, DJ McKinney, is the next big name for the Buffs. Host Kevin Borba dives into why this is somewhat of a loss, but is more representative of Colorado not investing in the right players.

Colorado football stands at a crossroads as Deion Sanders’ audacious portal-first strategy faces its biggest test yet. With the Buffaloes staring down a roster overhaul—potentially bringing in as many as 50 new players via the transfer portal—the pressure is mounting for Coach Prime and his new athletic director to finally deliver results on the field. Fundraising incentives, staff upgrades, and promises of amped-up resources set the stage for a no-excuses season, but bowl eligibility in 2026 is an absolute must if Sanders wants long-term security in Boulder.

Kevin Borba and Spencer McLaughlin dive deep on the magnitude of Colorado’s portal pressure, questioning whether Sanders’ all-in approach can succeed with the trenches thin and linebacker depth evaporating. Can the Buffs find game-changing linemen and defensive standouts in a crowded one-window portal cycle, or will their knack for “moneyballing” receiver talent be enough to keep pace in the new Big 12 arms race? As calls for change grow louder and roster turnover surges past 25 transfers, the hosts outline what must happen for Colorado’s portal plan to finally pay off—and discuss Ryan Staub’s departure, potential quarterback options, and the critical positions that will define next season’s outlook.

From recruiting shakeups to portal needs at defensive line, linebacker, and skill spots, Locked On Buffs asks whether Deion can nail this transfer window and silence the doubters—or if 2026 will demand a complete strategic rethink. Will Colorado’s bold portal philosophy prove the blueprint, or a cautionary tale for college football’s wild new era?

The Colorado Buffaloes are reeling from a huge transfer portal blow as running back Dallan Hayden announces his departure. Was Hayden the key piece missing in Boulder’s run game revival? Kevin Borba explores how Hayden’s mismanagement and untapped potential signal a critical lost opportunity with Brendan Marion’s “Go Go” offense on the horizon. With Colorado’s running backs never eclipsing 400 yards—and Hayden leading crucial advanced metrics—the question shifts to: Who will step up next, and can Marion’s scheme finally unleash a ground attack in Boulder?

A seismic change rocks Colorado’s athletic department as New Mexico’s fundraising guru Fernando Lovo assumes the AD role. Is he the high-risk, high-reward steward Colorado needs? Kevin Borba assesses Lovo’s credentials, fundraising incentives, and priorities for program growth, including his relationship with Deion Sanders. Will “Coach Prime” find the alignment he demands, or does Lovo’s fresh perspective signal more pressure and new standards for CU’s leadership? With basketball decisions looming and fundraising at the program’s forefront, Buffs fans can expect change at every level.

NFL Draft departures are also shaking up the roster. Arden Walker and Keaton Wade are taking their pass rush talents to the next level—can they boost their stock at pro day and carve out a future in the league? Kevin Borbabreaks down their trajectory, the developmental concerns for Colorado’s defensive front, and what Zeri McGill’s looming eligibility battle means for line continuity. The Buffs face tough losses, but the podcast asks: Who has the best shot to hear their name called on draft day, and how will Colorado recover up front?

Colorado’s football program stands at a crossroads, grappling with pivotal losses, front office shake-ups, and the relentless chase for competitiveness and continuity in the new Big 12 era. Will new leadership and fresh opportunity be enough to keep the Buffs relevant and thriving? This episode dives into the hard questions and future hopes for the black and gold faithful.

Colorado Buffaloes face a critical crossroads under head coach Deion Sanders, as swirling questions emerge about whether those surrounding “Coach Prime” truly have the program’s—and his—best interests at heart. Can Sanders unify his staff and address key departures to solidify Colorado’s culture and on-field success?

Kevin Borba dives deep into the recent drama at Colorado, highlighting distractions from Warren Sapp’s off-topic social media activity, internal recruiting conflicts, and rumors of staff members undermining the program. He calls out signs of fractured priorities and urges Sanders to ensure every staff member is committed to building Colorado’s legacy, not advancing personal agendas. The episode also examines concerns in the transfer portal, pointing to major position group voids on the defensive line, linebackers, and secondary, and offers strategic advice on targeting impact recruits.

The conversation escalates as Kevin Borba analyzes Shadeur Sanders’ NFL outlook amid struggles with the Browns, questioning whether the team is maximizing his talents and suggesting that a trade might serve his future better. Listeners can expect insight on leadership, locker room culture, and the high stakes riding on every decision made by Deion Sanders in Boulder.

Will Coach Prime get the right people behind him and deliver on the promise of transforming Colorado football’s reputation?

The Colorado Buffaloes enter the offseason reeling from the loss of star safety Tawfiq Byard, whose leadership and tenacity made him the heart and soul of the defense. Can Coach Prime’s staff recover from this setback, or does the reaction to Byard's exit reveal deeper issues in Boulder? Kevin Borba examines the fallout as program insiders question Byard's value and Colorado’s willingness to pay for proven talent, sparking debate over NIL priorities and leadership. The episode explores why Bayard’s impact extends far beyond his stats, highlights concern over Colorado’s transfer evaluation misses, and assesses how current attitudes could jeopardize team chemistry. 

Staff changes take center stage, with Colorado hiring Chris Marv as linebackers coach to revive a struggling unit. Kevin Borba assesses Marv’s recruiting chops and defensive coordinator experience from Virginia Tech, pondering whether his outsider perspective can spark a much-needed turnaround. The shake-up signals Coach Prime’s intent to move beyond familiar faces, even as further coaching moves loom. Transfer portal chaos continues as 18 players depart, including rising contributors like John Slaughter and Sean Myers, leaving holes at linebacker, safety, and receiver. Kevin Borba details key losses, why depth and continuity still matter—even for a rebuilding team—and voices skepticism about Colorado’s ability to hit on enough replacements. 

The episode ends with questions about how the Buffs will fill 50+ roster spots amidst high expectations and mounting pressure. Will Colorado’s leadership rethink its approach and salvage a roster rocked by turnover, or will another offseason of churn leave Coach Prime and the Buffaloes chasing answers?
