One thing is now crystal clear: It is not just the efforts of Deion Sanders and Co. anymore. The whole of Colorado town is joining hands to convince Julian Lewis to flip from USC. First, it was the sincere request by Colorado’s oldest 99-year-old fan Peggy Coppom to flip to Colorado. If that was not flattering enough for Lewis before he makes his highly anticipated official visit to Colorado from June 21-23, there is a special burger, inspired by him, waiting right at the Boulder.

The Sink Burger, a 100-year-old burger chain from CU, very proudly launched Juju’s Precision Pass Burger right around the time of the official visit weekend. Per the announcement made by the Sink on X, the burger is a double-patty cheeseburger, topped off with shredded lettuce, red onion, bacon, and A-1 aioli. The Sink calls it “a game-changer.” Going by the description of it, the JuJu’s Precision Pass burger surely sounds scrumptious, however will it really change Julian Lewis’ game? Or rather, his mind from being “locked down with USC?”

Julian Lewis is already done and dusted with his official visits with Auburn and USC, the top-most competitors of Colorado in the Julian Lewis chase. USC visit went ‘phenomenal’ as Lewis’s father T.C. Lewis puts it. All that the fans were worried about was Auburn sweeping away Lewis like an underdog.

After his visit to Auburn, Lewis made a confession that not only struck out Auburn as a competitor but also strengthened the force of Coach Riley and Co. against Colorado: “Right now I’m 100 percent with USC,” Lewis had confessed to On3. However, he had still left some room for competition for Colorado. “ I’m going to go around and see how I feel with everything,” Lewis had later added in his interview. Looking at the bond that Lewis shares with Shedeur Sanders, the competition is going to be cutthroat.

Julian Lewis and Shedeur Sanders’s bond

The five-star QB prospect is already good friends with the Buffs’ starting QB Shedeur Sanders. Their exchanges online are proof of it. Ever since Julian Lewis started visiting Colorado, Shedeur Sanders and he instantly developed a bond. Back in May 2024, when Lewis announced that he would be going on the official visit to Colorado after his 2 unofficial visits, Shedeur Sanders was the first one to comment on it, saying, “Legendary.”

Fast forward to June 2024, when Shedeur Sanders made a post highlighting his NIL deal with Gatorade on his Instagram, Julian Lewis quickly commented on money bag emojis to hype Shedeur Sanders up. Looking at the bond they share, Shedeur would be the proudest if Lewis inherits his role as the Buffs starting QB once he moves to the NFL. However, does Julian Lewis want that? We’ll know about that shortly.
