Coach Prime may have hit the jackpot with an unheralded transfer from FCS Incarnate Word.
Senior RB Dekalon Taylor looks like a gem during practice, and he should form a formidable trio of running backs in the Colorado backfield, joining junior Dallas Hayden and sophomore Micah Welch. Those three, along with a running QB in Kaidon Salter and a revamped offensive line, should lead to a major step forward on the ground for the Buffaloes in 2025. What was a major weakness last season should be a strength this year.
Whether Taylor is the starter or not has yet to be determined.
