Less than a day after Deion Sanders was announced as Colorado’s new football coach, he already has landed a highly touted recruit. Four-star wide receiver Winston Watkins Jr. announced Sunday that he is committing to the Buffaloes.
“Let’s Make History, Fort Myers wit Fort myers,” Watkins posted on Twitter.
The 2025 recruit hails from Fort Myers, Fla., just like Sanders. He’s one of the top wideouts in his class, a fact that signals Sanders’s presence in the Pac-12 already can be felt on the recruiting trail.
Watkins was previously committed to Texas A&M before flipping to Colorado.
