Colorado Lands All-MAC Linebacker Gideon Lampron in Transfer-Portal Push

The All-MAC linebacker becomes Colorado’s first inside-linebacker addition in this portal cycle, reinforcing Deion Sanders’ push for proven production.

Overview

  • Lavpron committed to the Buffaloes on Tuesday, with initial reports citing his agent via On3 and a subsequent social post by Hayes Fawcett.
  • He earned first-team All-MAC honors in 2025 after posting 119 tackles, 17.5 tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks and two forced fumbles for Bowling Green.
  • He has one year of eligibility remaining and previously starred at Dayton, where he was a 2024 FCS first-team All-American, before serving as a Bowling Green captain in 2025.
  • Evaluators credited his run defense with an 84.5 PFF grade, and 247Sports ranks him No. 40 among portal linebackers, with analysts projecting him at inside linebacker to bolster run stopping.
  • Colorado’s portal class has reached 14 commitments with eight all-conference performers, with recent additions including receiver Danny Scudero and defensive lineman Tyler Moore.
