Overview
- Colorado offensive tackle Jordan Seaton, a former five-star who started 13 games as a freshman and earned Freshman All-American recognition from On3, plans to enter the transfer portal after a strong two-year run highlighted by elite pass-protection grades.
- Former Tennessee defensive back Boo Carter committed to Colorado with two years of eligibility, bringing All-SEC freshman honors from 2024 and playmaking production after a 2025 season that ended with a dismissal Heupel attributed to unmet team standards.
- Ex-Vanderbilt captain Randon Fontenette also committed, arriving with 141 career tackles and versatility across the secondary and box roles, and he is expected to have one season of eligibility.
- Safety Carter Stoutmire and WR/CB Isaiah Hardge entered the portal, and Stoutmire’s departure means every member of Colorado’s 2023 signing class has now left the program, with only five players from the 2023 roster still on the team.
- Colorado’s staff has secured roughly 27–30 transfer commitments during the January window with a clear defensive emphasis, rapidly reworking a secondary that lost multiple starters.
