Fauria Breaks with Colorado Over Shedeur Jersey Retirement

Former Colorado star Christian Fauria says he won’t back Deion Sanders’ program after Colorado retired Shedeur Sanders’ No. 2 jersey, calling the move a vanity project and saying he tapped out in April 2025; he argues the program’s priorities and jersey-retirement standards have shifted since the 1990s, notes that Darian Hagan’s jersey hasn’t been retired, and emphasizes his stance isn’t personal toward Shedeur or his family, while Colorado’s 16-21 record under Prime and a 3-9 season in 2025 provide context.

Fauria ends support for Deion Sanders' Colorado over jersey retirement

Former Colorado tight end Christian Fauria says he has tapped out on backing Deion Sanders' Colorado program after the retirement of Shedeur Sanders' No. 2 jersey. He calls the move a vanity project driven by Sanders’ ego, though he still hopes Colorado wins. Fauria emphasizes he can root for Shedeur as a player but not for the jersey retirement, which he believes signals the program’s priorities. His son played at Colorado but transferred to Delaware. Colorado is 16-21 under Sanders, and Fauria suggests more wins are needed to maintain fan support.

Colorado lands 2026 running back Cam Newton after Boulder visit

Prosper (Texas) Walnut Grove RB Cam Newton, one of the top 2026 backs available, committed to Colorado after a weekend visit—the Buffaloes were the first Power Five program to offer him. At 5-foot-11, 190 pounds, Newton posted 2,007 rushing yards and 31 touchdowns as a junior in 2024, and followed with 2,402 rushing yards, 388 receiving yards and 44 total TDs in 2025 for a 12-1 Walnut Grove team. He is unranked as a prospect and is not related to former NFL MVP Cam Newton. Colorado’s 2026 class is already sizable, bolstered by 40+ portal additions and plans to bring in close to 60 newcomers this offseason via high school, junior college and transfer signees.
