Colorado cornerback Cormani McClain plans to enter the transfer portal
One of Deion Sanders‘ biggest recruits in Colorado and former five-star prospect Cormani McClain plans to enter the transfer portal, according to On3’s Hayes Fawcett.
McClain can play immediately and has three years of eligibility remaining. If you remember correctly, McClain was a top 15 prospect in the 2023 class that was committed to Miami, before flipping to Colorado and Coach Prime.
He played in just four games as a freshman racked up 13 total tackles and registered two pass breakups.
Media had asked Deion why McClain had not been getting more playing time last year and Deion was very blunt by the sounds of it, McClain maybe was not taking his opportunity seriously.
“Study and prepare,” Sanders told reporters in September 2023 when asked what McClain needed to improve on to see more playing time. “Be on time for meetings, show up to meetings. Understand the scheme. I check film time from each player so I can see who’s preparing, so if I don’t see that, you would be a fool to put somebody out there who’s not prepared. That goes for all our players.”
