Indiana's Matthew Bedford transfers to Colorado
Making good on his promise to rehaul the offensive line, Colorado head coach Deion Sanders and his staff added some beef up front last week. And more experience is coming. Indiana Hoosiers three-star tackle Matthew Bedford announced Tuesday via ‘X’ (formerly twitter) his decision to transfer to the Buffaloes.
A 6’6”, 305-LB offensive lineman from Cordova, Tenn., Bedford brings plenty of experience. He started 38 of 41 games for the Hoosiers over the last five seasons. 11 of his 38 starts came at left guard, 10 at right guard, nine at right tackle and eight at left tackle. He joins teammate Kahlil Benson, who committed to Colorado on Saturday.
Bedford transfers in with one year of eligibility remaining. He is the fifth offensive lineman to transfer to Colorado in the past week, joining Benson, Justin Mayers (UTEP), Tyler Johnson (Houston), and Yakiri Walker (UCONN). Colorado also made headlines recently when they received a commitment from five-star offensive line recruit Jordan Seaton.
With Bedford’s commitment, the Buffaloes have a total of 17 commits -- 10 recruits and seven transfers – for the Class of 2024. Seven of those 17 commitments are offensive lineman. 247Sports.com currently has the Buffaloes incoming class ranked 26th overall, and second among Big XII teams trailing only Texas Tech.
