Moreover, even if it’s not for Julian Lewis, Caleb Odom always had a soft corner for Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffs. Last year during his recruitment, Caleb released a 12-team name list on X, sharing his top priority teams, and one among them was the Buffs, followed by Bama, Tennessee, Georgia, and so on. But now that he enters the transfer portal, there are high chances he might finally go for Buffs this time.
With Julian Lewis already a seasoned player and a top recruit, he’s primed to be a key contributor for the Buffs. As Shedeur Sanders is likely heading to the NFL, Lewis seems all set to lead the team. And Caleb Odom, with already a freshman experience and impressive turnover records this season, can really make a big change for the Buffs next season, along with Lewis, and even fans see it.

Fans rooting to see Julian Lewis and Caleb together
Well, it looks like almost every college football fan wants to reunite Carrollton’s star duo, Julian Lewis and Caleb Odom, but the question here is, is it really going to happen? If that was always their plan, why didn’t Caleb join the Buffs earlier? After a 4-8 season last year, nobody expected them to even be bowl-eligible. But this year, the Buffs are a different team, and it’s exciting to see their future. So even fans want them to join hands and finally bring the championship title for the Buffs; as they say, “It would definitely help Julian.” Seeing known faces always helps, plus under Coach Prime’s guidance, both these players can emerge as another Shedeur-Travis duo.
Isn’t it the best thing to predict? Even the team needs a better rooster to make it up to Hunter because his exit from the team is nothing less than misery. Now that we are talking about predictions, even this fan made an assumption, saying, “I bet Caleb Odom will join JuJu at Colorado after the season,” and here we are discussing the possibilities. But when the stocks are this high on a player, pressure always tries to suppress their caliber. And while there’s a chance they could be an amazing team together, there’s also the risk that things could go south. As this X user says, “A failure?”

It’s not like Deion Sanders’s team didn’t lose players from their roster this year, and this can be a bonus moment for his team. This fan did a good analysis and actually made a sensible comment saying, “We lost 6 receivers, 4 to the league and 2 to the portal; hope these freshmen are ready.” Can Coach Prime keep surprising us? It’s time to see what he’s got up his sleeve.
