Throughout the 2025 season, it became clear that coach Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes needed to make adjustments on both sides of the ball with inconsistent performance on offense and defense.
As a result of needing to make changes, Sanders started with the coordinators as he brought in Brennan Marion to be the new offensive coordinator and elevated Chris Marve to take over as the defensive coordinator. With the experience that Marion and Marve have as college coaches, it seems that they have both been able to help Colorado change the approach when it comes to roster construction, especially when it comes to the transfer portal.
Throughout the offseason, it has become quite clear that the Buffaloes have a completely different emphasis when it comes to the transfer portal, which is prioritizing a blend of experience and production when it comes to adding transfers. As a result of that, it appears that Colorado has been able to build one of the more experienced teams in the country, which could help the Buffaloes to compete at a much higher level in a tough Big 12 conference.
