UTEP OL transfer Justin Mayers commits to Deion Sanders, Colorado
Deion Sanders is going to dip into the NCAA transfer portal hard this offseason, especially on the offensive line. Colorado was able to secure another commitment on Saturday night, with former UTEP OL Justin Mayers heading to Boulder.
A ton of experience will be joining the Colorado program, with Mayers playing in 24 games over the past two seasons. Mayers is an interior player as UTEP’s left guard. With how desperate the Buffaloes were for blockers, there is a good chance he has an immediate opportunity for playing time.
Before the 2023 season even ended, Sanders admitted Colorado would have to hit the portal for new guys. Sheduer Sanders was getting killed out there and killing any kind of chance they had on offense. Landing somebody like Mayers will help the cause while transitioning into the Big 12.
Mayers played high school football at Frisco (TX) Reedy, where he was a three-star prospect. He was the No. 2,919 overall recruit in the 2019 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Rankings, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
