HUGE: Colorado Insider Says These Freshmen Can Make an Immediate Impact

Locked On Podcast Network — Wed, 13 May 2026 17:27:32 GMT

Colorado's youth movement charges forward as several freshmen line up for early playing time, highlighted by Mojo Williams’ playmaking spring and Preston Ashley’s leadership nod. Kevin Borba and Jack Carlough analyze which newcomers have the best shot at crashing the starting lineup, why Coach Prime’s commitment to practice performance means walk-ons and true freshmen alike could see the field, and how depth at linebacker and offensive line could shape the season’s outlook.

The discussion also spotlights a shift in Buffs recruiting strategy. With more early offers nationwide and staff hitting the road from Texas to the East Coast, Jack Carlo explains why 2028’s class could set a new standard for early commitments in the Coach Prime era, and how the transfer portal continues to influence roster construction. What does this new approach mean for high school prospects versus transfer additions? Looking ahead, Kevin Borba and Jack Carlough tackle pressing questions for Colorado:

Can the Buffs solidify depth on the defensive line? Will the offensive line finally show the needed improvement? And is this the year a dynamic backfield emerges? With Juju Lewis poised to seize QB1 and competition wide open at multiple spots, this episode explores the factors that could make or break Colorado’s Big 12 campaign — and why patience, player development, and off-field recruiting hustle are all under the microscope in Boulder.

WOW: Deion Sanders Under FIRE From Former Colorado Players

Locked On Podcast Network — Tue, 12 May 2026 16:03:28 GMT

The Colorado Buffaloes’ offseason drama heats up as alumni public backlash intensifies against Deion Sanders and the current staff’s “closed door” approach. Kevin Borba and Jay Smith dissect the fallout from Lawrence Vickers' outspoken criticism and explore whether old-school Buffs can coexist with the Prime era. With alumni relations strained and viral headlines swirling, the hosts debate if any olive branches or simple fixes could heal this growing rift before it further distracts from the on-field agenda.

But that’s not Colorado’s only hurdle. Kevin Borba and Jay Smith shift focus to the program’s true problems—and potential. As the Buffs prepare for a critical season, trench play, defensive transformation under Coach Marv, and the quest for an identity beyond Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter dominate the conversation. Can new OC Brennan Marion’s “Go-Go” offense and a wave of seasoned transfers spark a breakthrough in Year Four? The hosts examine whether roster overhaul and strategic hires will drive a resurgence or set up a November reckoning. Is Colorado a surprise contender—or poised for more turbulence? Kevin Borba and Jay Smith boldly forecast a minimum six-win target, highlight the X-factors on both sides of the ball, and set the stakes for what could be a defining season in Boulder. Will Coach Prime silence the doubters, resolve alumni unrest, and spark genuine Buffaloes swagger—or is more change looming on the horizon?

OH: Deion Sanders May Have a STAR on His Hands in Tight End Zach Atkins

Locked On Podcast Network — Tue, 12 May 2026 03:45:00 GMT

The Colorado Buffaloes may have one of the nation’s best-kept secrets at tight end in Zach Atkins, but last season’s offensive game plan kept his talents under wraps. With Brendan Marion now calling the shots and the Go-Go offense known for highlighting tight ends, Atkins is widely expected to finally showcase his elite athleticism and playmaking ability in 2026. Can he seize the opportunity and transform Colorado’s passing attack? Kevin Borba dives into why Atkins—who transferred from Northwest Missouri State and chose CU over SEC offers—could become a household name if featured properly. After minimal targets in a dysfunctional 2023 offense, Atkins now has a chance to rival previous Marion-coached NFL tight ends as a dynamic threat and safety valve for young quarterback Julian Lewis. With past Go-Go standouts producing big red zone numbers, Atkins’ combination of size, speed, and catch radius sets the stage for a true breakout. But what about the tight end depth behind him?

Kevin Borba candidly assesses Colorado’s options, highlighting the lack of proven contributors in the group. New arrivals like Fisher Clements, a 6-7 transfer from Northern Colorado, could emerge as blocking options or situational red zone mismatches, while former blue-chippers Corbin Laser and Zane D’Souza round out a thin and unproven room. Injuries could quickly test the Buffs’ makeshift rotation, meaning a portal addition remains on the table as a priority. Will Colorado finally unleash its top tight end talent and add a new wrinkle to their offense? The stage is set for Zach Atkins to headline the Buffaloes’ aerial attack in 2026, but the supporting cast and the program’s ability to bolster depth will be crucial factors in sustaining success as they charge into Big 12 play.

UH-OH: Colorado Has a HUGE Trap Game Early in the Season

Locked On Podcast Network — Mon, 11 May 2026 19:53:20 GMT

Colorado’s 2026 football schedule has fans circling one matchup as the ultimate trap game: a tricky Week 3 trip to Northwestern. With Chip Kelly calling plays and a surging Wildcats roster that returns 27 experienced contributors, could this overlooked Big Ten road game derail Coach Prime’s high-pressure season before it starts? Kevin Borba lays out how a slip-up in Evanston might spark a dreaded September avalanche, especially with bruising showdowns against Texas Tech, Utah, Oklahoma State, and Kansas State looming in October.

Plus, which transfer portal additions must step up for Colorado to turn the corner? Kevin Borba names the four newcomers who “have to be stars” in Boulder: linebacker Gideon Lampron (run-stopper extraordinaire), bruising backs Richard Young and Damien Henderson, and disruptive pass rusher Toby Nnanna from North Dakota State. Without breakout seasons from these transfers, Colorado risks a repeat of last year’s struggles against the run and inconsistent offense.

In a candid look at roster turnover, Kevin Borba also ranks the three biggest portal losses: wideout Omarion Miller, cornerstone tackle Jordan Seaton (lured by an SEC bag), and culture-carrying linebacker TaFeek Bayard. Which departure stings the most—and can Colorado’s revamped locker room make up the difference?

With Coach Prime’s Buffs aiming to silence doubters and toughen up in the trenches, this episode breaks down Colorado’s biggest potholes, potential breakout stars, and just how fragile the 2026 campaign could be if early missteps snowball. Is Northwestern a looming disaster, or a confidence-launching win for this new-look squad?

WOW: Colorado REJECTED $30 Million Offer From Big 12 Partner

Locked On Podcast Network — Sat, 09 May 2026 22:28:30 GMT

The Colorado Buffaloes and several Big 12 peers turn down a massive $30 million credit line offer, choosing financial discipline over instant spending in a rapidly changing college football landscape. Why did Colorado pass on this high-stakes deal—despite reporting a $27 million deficit? Kevin Borba unpacks the Buffs’ rationale, including the Coach Prime effect, new AD Fernando Lovo’s fundraising incentives, and why paying steep 10% interest isn’t the answer right now.

Turning to the field, ESPN’s fresh Big 12 power rankings shake up expectations, placing Colorado at No. 9. Kevin Borba breaks down where the Buffs landed, why Brendan Marion’s arrival could turbocharge the offense, and which teams could be reshuffled amid the conference’s unpredictable parity. Is Colorado underrated, or right where they belong? With questions around turnover, coaching changes, and a “wide open” Big 12 race, Kevin Borba explains how the Buffs are being overlooked—and how chaos could erupt from teams 6 through 16. Can Colorado climb higher in the pecking order by season’s end? And does bypassing quick cash set up long-term success in Boulder? Find out why patience and strategic moves off the field could be just as crucial as on-field results for the Buffs—and why the Big 12 might be more competitive than ever.

UH-OH: Colorado Ranked as One of the WORST Teams in College Football Despite Great Offseason

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 07 May 2026 18:02:19 GMT

Despite an aggressive and headline-grabbing offseason, the Colorado Buffaloes find themselves ranked among the nation’s bottom Power 4 teams, coming in at No. 107 in USA Today’s FBS poll. Is this a fair reflection of the program under Coach Prime, or does it ignore the influx of talent and staff changes made in Boulder? Roster turnover, new coordinators, and Big 12 parity put Colorado’s consistency and long-term sustainability under the microscope—leaving Coach Prime with plenty to prove to media, fans, and recruits eager for results. Kevin Borba dives into the rankings controversy, the absence of “benefit of the doubt” for the Buffs, and why national skepticism persists despite a star-studded transfer class and a revamped coaching staff. Can Colorado overcome last year’s instability, relentless roster changes, and a daunting Big 12 schedule?

With trench play concerns and skepticism at an all-time high, Kevin Borba dissects the reasons behind the pessimism—but also breaks down why the doubters could be in for a shock. From the promise of the Go-Go offense under Brennan Marion to the leadership of five-star quarterback Julian Lewis and a new college-focused coaching staff, hope remains that Colorado can recapture magic and shake up the Big 12 hierarchy. Will this year’s team be dismissed as just another “enigma,” or is a major turnaround—and national respect—just around the corner?

HUGE: Sac State RB Transfer Damian Henderson II has GAME-CHANGING potential

Locked On Podcast Network — Wed, 06 May 2026 22:00:00 GMT

With Damian Henderson quietly flying under the radar, the Colorado Buffaloes' running back competition is heating up just in time for the season. Could the Sacramento State transfer’s blend of size, speed, and big-play ability unseat more familiar names like Richard Young and Decayin Taylor? Kevin Borba urges Buffs fans not to overlook Henderson, whose spring game heroics and impressive Sac State production signal a possible breakout campaign. Roster shakeups and new faces create uncertainty—and opportunity. Kevin Borba highlights wild card threats like Jaquel Smith, another Sac State transfer with game-breaking speed, and incoming freshman Cam Newton, a Texas phenom boasting back-to-back 2,000-yard rushing seasons. Will Coach Prime and OC Brennan Marion finally unleash a dynamic Colorado ground game?

As Kevin Borba argues, changes in play calling and a new batch of hungry backs could see this group maximize their touches and change the Buffs’ offensive identity.

Locked On Podcast Network — Wed, 06 May 2026 18:15:03 GMT

Despite ESPN rating Colorado’s offseason as turbulent, Kevin Borba argues the opposite: an intentional roster overhaul has the Buffaloes primed for success in the new-look Big 12. Were mass departures a crisis—or simply Coach Prime’s calculated shake-up for a hungrier, more unified locker room? Kevin Borba breaks down ESPN’s critique, highlighting the high-profile transfer exits, including Jordan Seaton and Tafique Bayard, and details why many losses were addition by subtraction.

Citing a culture shift, Kevin Borba emphasizes that last year’s squad lacked buy-in and leadership—key reasons for the turnover and the influx of team captains and driven Group of 5 standouts via the portal. On the positive side, the episode spotlights the hiring of Brennan Marion as potentially the top coordinator move in college football. Kevin Borba lays out Marion’s track record of electric offenses, the revamped and more balanced receiver corps, and how JUJU Lewis could become a breakout star under Marion’s guidance. The defensive front is restocked and, while the secondary remains a work in progress, overall depth and attitude have improved.

Recruiting ramps up as the Buffaloes target high-upside prospects like Fui Vacapuna out of Utah and Sheldon Isaac from Mississippi, revealing a new level of staff engagement under Coach Box and Brennan Marion. Kevin Borba underscores the long-term strategy—developing prep recruits to avoid complete overhauls through the portal each year and to sustain success. Can Colorado’s bold offseason reset and fresh leadership propel them beyond ESPN’s No. 9 Big 12 ranking—and make a run at bowl eligibility or more? The Buffs’ rebuilt foundation and recruiting push may be just what Boulder needs to rewrite expectations for 2024 and set up sustained program momentum.

WOW: No. 1 Recruit BLASTS Deion Sanders, Colorado's Efforts in Recruiting In-State Talent

Locked On Podcast Network — Tue, 05 May 2026 18:29:18 GMT

Colorado’s recruiting landscape faces scrutiny as No. 1 in-state prospect Jackson Roper calls out Deion Sanders and the Buffaloes for overlooking homegrown talent. Despite interest from blue-chip programs, Roper, now a UCLA commit, claims Colorado lags in cultivating in-state relationships—a trend continuing as top local recruits opt for destinations like Washington, Notre Dame, and Arizona State. Kevin Borba unpacks the deeper challenge: why has Colorado historically struggled to keep its own stars, and can the Buffs improve under Coach Prime’s new regime? With a traditionally thin talent pool and fierce out-of-state competition, Kevin Borba questions whether prioritizing local prospects is feasible, or if the coaching staff’s focus on fertile recruiting grounds in the South is the smarter play. This episode delivers honest perspective on the Roper situation, the Buffs’ attempts to build depth, and whether changes in player personnel will finally allow Colorado to breakthrough in high school recruiting.

Plus, burning questions for the 2026 season: Will the offensive line finally turn the corner? Can defensive coordinator Chris Marv exert real influence, or will Coach Prime continue to call the shots?

In the midst of these in-state recruiting battles, Colorado targets four-star running back Carter Hansen from California, signaling renewed recruiting energy under Brennan Marion. Kevin Borba explores whether building stronger, earlier relationships can reverse past recruiting missteps and discusses why nurturing prospects from freshman year is as crucial as any on-field adjustment. With a fresh staff, new recruiting priorities, and local prospects voicing frustration, it’s a pivotal moment for Deion Sanders and Colorado football. Can the Buffs finally lock down their backyard—or will elite Colorado talent keep slipping away? This episode dives into the stakes, the strategy, and what must change for the Buffs to compete with college football’s recruiting elite.

OMG: Texas Transfer DeAndre Moore is Going to SHOCK Folks next College Football Season for Colorado

Locked On Podcast Network — Mon, 04 May 2026 22:35:16 GMT

Colorado’s offense is stacked with transfers, but DeAndre Moore could be the secret weapon that powers the Buffaloes’ receiving corps in 2026. Is Moore—an electric Texas transfer and former four-star out of St. John Bosco—about to break out in Boulder’s high-octane attack under Coach Prime? Kevin Borba spotlights Moore as Colorado’s ultimate under-the-radar playmaker, recounting CU’s knack for turning overlooked receivers into stars and reminding listeners how Moore’s opportunities were limited at talent-rich Texas. Despite the hype around newcomers like Danny Scudero—college football’s national receiving leader—and the infectious energy from guys like Joseph Williams and Quinn Gibson, Moore’s ceiling may be higher than any of them if he’s healthy and featured.

The segment explores Moore’s big-game production (think SEC championship clutch catches), how Kevin Borba expects coordinator Brennan Marion to finally unleash Moore’s open-field elusiveness, and what needs to change to keep him involved week-in, week-out. Injuries kept Moore on the sidelines all spring, quietly dropping him out of the conversation, but Kevin Borba makes the case for Moore to emerge as a top target or even a future NFL draft pick if he maximizes this make-or-break season. Will Moore’s combination of route-running, blocking, and after-the-catch explosiveness finally get the showcase it deserves in Colorado’s offense—and could he turn a sleeper year into professional payday? The countdown to the Buffs’ 2026 campaign is on, and Moore is the X-factor no defense should overlook.

These Colorado Studs Could Take a HUGE Leap Next College Football Season

Locked On Podcast Network — Mon, 04 May 2026 21:27:41 GMT

As 2026 approaches, Kevin Borba highlights four Colorado Buffaloes poised for breakout seasons—three on offense, one on defense—each with the talent to become difference-makers if they reach their potential. With a revamped roster and questions swirling about who will step up, competition is fierce as the Buffs aim to turn flashes of promise into consistent production. Kevin Borba spotlights offensive line anchor Larry Johnson, versatile transfer Boo Carter, physical running back Richard Young, and quarterback Julian Lewis as key leap candidates, each facing pressure to secure starting roles and fulfill the considerable expectations in Boulder.

Recruiting takes center stage as well, with the Buffs battling blueblood programs for prized prospects like Isaiah Alvarez while also feeling the sting from losing top local talent such as Jackson Roper to national powers.

In NFL news, Kevin Borba unpacks the drama surrounding Shedeur Sanders and the Cleveland Browns’ quarterback race, where Deshaun Watson’s uncertain status opens the door for Sanders. Off-field headlines flare as Shiloh Sanders defends his brother amid local media scrutiny, underscoring the intense spotlight on the Sanders family. Can Colorado’s leap candidates seize their moment and change the program's trajectory? Will the Buffs’ recruiting momentum translate to on-field results, or will key misses and in-state losses haunt them? And can Shador Sanders overcome the noise to earn his NFL shot?

These Colorado Battles Aren't Being Talked About ENOUGH

Locked On Podcast Network — Fri, 01 May 2026 23:00:00 GMT

Kevin Borba dissects a transformed running back room, from established returners like Michael Welch and speedster Decaylan “Trackhawk” Taylor to blue-chip transfer Richard Young and Sac State’s own Damian Henderson. The buzz: Brendan Marion’s run-heavy offensive philosophy could finally resurrect a ground game that’s been missing for years, offering a chance for any back to emerge as a 1,200-yard workhorse. Who will seize the spotlight and offset the pressure on new quarterback Julian Lewis?

But the real drama may lie in the trench war up front, where the offensive line must be rebuilt—again. With only one possible returning starter and a bevy of transfers (think: Georgia’s Bo Huley, Cal’s Leon Bell, and Rutgers’ Taj White), Kevin Borba warns that this unit’s chemistry is the pivot point for Colorado’s season. Can coach Marion’s flexible, “Go Go” offense work magic regardless of talent on the line, or will protection woes linger and cap the Buffs’ ceiling yet again?

From unsung position duels to scheme fits and physicality questions, Kevin Borba sets up the storylines that will define Colorado football’s return to relevance. Will these renewed battles spark improvement and carry the program forward, or repeat past struggles in the trenches and backfield?

The fall answers start now.

Colorado Has the HARDEST Month in College Football Next Season

Locked On Podcast Network — Fri, 01 May 2026 20:59:26 GMT

As the pivotal month of October approaches, Kevin Borba spotlights the decisive stretch that could make—or break—Colorado’s 2026 campaign. With a treacherous road slate at Georgia Tech, Northwestern, and Baylor early on, Colorado will need to maintain momentum as they enter a daunting October string: Texas Tech, Utah, Oklahoma State, and Kansas State. “If that doesn’t go well, people will lose jobs and players will be benched,” Borba underscoring the sky-high stakes.

Roster depth remains a prominent concern as Kevin Borba breaks down defensive line woes from last year and profiles a trio of transfer and JUCO targets—De Varic Woods, Jalen Harris, and Malachi Brown—that could fortify the trenches. On the draft front, CBS Sports named only two draftable Buffs, but Kevin Borba makes a strong case for additional prospects like DeAndre Moore, Joseph Williams, and Zach Atkins to emerge this season with NFL potential.

Will Coach Prime’s squad shake their pattern of faltering momentum, or will another October swoon derail bowl hopes? With every game potentially against a ranked opponent from early October through mid-November, Colorado’s bowl bid hinges on surviving—and thriving—in this make-or-break stretch. Can the Buffs weather the gauntlet and rebuild their national buzz, or will another midseason slide bring more questions than answers?

Deion Sanders Adding TRANSFERS Still in Play Despite Portal Being Closed

Locked On Podcast Network — Fri, 01 May 2026 01:08:57 GMT

Colorado Buffaloes look to strengthen their roster ahead of the new season by seeking hidden gems in the transfer portal, with the defensive line emerging as a critical need after last year’s struggle to stop the run. Can Colorado’s latest transfer targets bring much-needed physicality and depth to a thin defensive front? Kevin Borba dives deep into Colorado’s transfer strategy, highlighting the pursuit of D2 standout Jaylen Harris from Central Missouri and Texas State’s Devarrick Woods, both poised to add veteran presence and bolster a front that surrendered 222.5 rushing yards per game—ranking 132nd nationally. With previous portal pickup Ezra Christensen still facing eligibility questions and depth concerns growing, the pressure is on for the Buffs to land experienced reinforcements.

The show expands to address other pressing needs: linebacker depth—where only six scholarship players are on the roster, split between upperclassmen and unproven freshmen—tight end options, and even secondary help at cornerback. Kevin Borba points out the necessity of grabbing more experienced bodies from the portal to ensure the roster can withstand injuries and the grind of the season, especially with no more spring portal to restock. Will Coach Prime and his staff secure the portal additions needed to transform Colorado’s defense and provide star quarterback Julian Lewis the weapons he needs on offense? With transfer windows closing, the Buffs’ margin for error is slim, and every veteran pickup could make the difference in returning to Big 12 relevance.
