Deion Sanders has made a notable move for the future of Colorado football by offering 2025 five-star safety, Faheem Delane to join them, who currently plays for Our Lady Good Counsel High School in Olney, Maryland. Delane, who is ranked as the top safety in the 2025 class, expressed his gratitude for the offer on Friday, saying, “Blessed to receive an offer from the Colorado University!”

Standing at 6 feet 1.5 inches and weighing 200 pounds, Delane has established himself as one of the top junior prospects in the country. If he accepts the offer, Delane will take Shilo Sanders’ position in the Buffaloes for the 2025 season. However, uncertainty looms as the offer from Colorado adds to Delane’s already impressive list of suitors, including powerhouse programs like Alabama, LSU, Ohio State, Tennessee, and Virginia Tech.

Delane plans to take official visits to each of these schools in the spring or summer before announcing his college destination ahead of his senior campaign. “These are definitely schools that offer me the opportunity to play early and definitely will give me the opportunity to develop,” Delane told On3. “These are places where my family and I feel most comfortable and places where I want to change the culture and win.” Delane has visited all his finalists except Tennessee but plans to visit Knoxville soon.

Official visits will play a crucial role in Delane’s decision-making process and provide him with a better understanding of each university’s football program, players, and facilities. Currently, Ohio State and Virginia Tech are recruiting him the hardest, with the Buckeyes reaching out daily and the Hokies contacting him multiple times a week.

With Colorado’s offer now in the mix, it adds another layer of intrigue to Delane’s recruitment journey. As he navigates through his options, the college football world eagerly awaits to see where this standout defensive back will ultimately choose to continue his football journey.
