Brandon, a three-star running back from the same high school, brings his talents to Colorado as well, becoming the 12th recruit for the Buffaloes’ 2024 class. With their arrival, Colorado will boast an impressive five sets of siblings on their roster for the upcoming season, including the Hoods, Shedeur and Shilo Sanders, Jaylen and LaJohntay Wester, Destin and Keaton Wade, and Kaleb and Kole Mathis.
Notably, this marks the first instance in history where two active coaches have their sons on the same roster, with Coach Prime overseeing the Sanders duo and Buffaloes cornerbacks coach Kevin Mathis coaching his own sons, Kaleb and Kole.
