In this story:


Colorado Buffaloes offensive lineman Jordan Seaton has officially entered the NCAA Transfer Portal where he immediately emerges as one of the top available players in the market.

Seaton signed with Deion Sanders and the Buffaloes program as their highest-rated prospect in over a decade after coming in as an elite five-star weapon in the 2024 Recruiting Cycle.

Sanders and the coaching staff in Boulder immediately tossed the 6-foot-5, 330-pounder in the fire where he started all 13 games as a true freshman - earning Freshman All-America honors across his first season with the program.

Seaton was the highest-graded true freshman offensive tackle in pass protection with at least 100 snaps, according to Pro Football Focus - as he emerged as one of the top players in the Big 12 as a youngster.

But it gets better: Seaton didn’t allow a sack in 11 of his first 13 games where the elite weapon then carried momentum into his sophomore campaign where he boasted a 91.4 grade through the first month of the season, per PFF.

Now, the projected first round NFL Draft pick is on the board as one of the top available players with a myriad of potential suitors emerging.

Pete Golding and the Ole Miss Rebels have been linked as a potential destination alongside the Texas Longhorns, Oregon Ducks, Texas A&M Aggies, and LSU Tigers.

Ole Miss remains in search of reinforcements in the trenches after losing multiple players to the Transfer Portal this offseason, but Seaton is expecting to receive quite the payday with the rumor mill swirling surrounding the price tag.

Golding and Co. may be a team in the conversation, but it's set to be a rigorous battle with the Texas Longhorns' unlimited pockets emerging as a top school in contention for Seaton.
