Star WR Winston Watkins decommits

Related Topics: Winston Watkins, Deion Sanders

Deion Sanders, when he was hired by Colorado last December, brought immediate recruiting success (which was the expectation). There were the obvious players, like Travis Hunter and Shedeur Sanders, but his juice on the high school recruiting trail was felt immediately. Especially in Florida. Winston Watkins, related to college football all-timer Sammy Watkins, committed to Prime within a week of his hiring. He seemed as solid as they come and was recruiting for CU for the entire time he was committed.

And he was committed until this weekend. Winston Watkins, who has done nothing but raise his stock as a high school junior, decommitted from CU and Coach Prime after the Buffs’ close loss against Arizona.
