Offer Tracker: Targeting the Biggest Recruits in the Country
BuffsCountry will be tracking the offers from the CU coaching staff every single week.
This past week, head coach Karl Dorrell and his staff were out targeting the top recruits in the nation. Many of these guys have double-digit Power-5 options and some of them are in top 100 lists all over the country.
Ceyair Wright
Ceyair Wright is a four-star athlete out of southern California. He is being recruited by defensive backs coach Demetrice Martin so it is likely that is where he’ll end up in college. He referred to Martin as “unc” in his tweet announcing his offer. Unc is short for uncle which would mean Wright considers Martin family. The 6-foot-1, 175-pounder is unanimously a top 120 recruit in the nation and has 24 Power-5 options. Wright has a blossoming acting career, he’s played roles in popular TV shows and movies and has been casted for Space Jam 2.
