It’s the big day of the Colorado Buffaloes’ sole 5-star recruit of the 2024 class! Deion Sanders is lucky to sign the third straight 5-star player in three consecutive years. Starting with two-way Travis Hunter who was a 2022 consensus 5-star recruit, it was followed by Cormani McCain in 2023 and our birthday boy in 2024. 

Jordan Seaton is the top-ranked recruit by Deion Sanders in the Buffs’ 2024 recruiting class. The IMG Academy standout joined Coach Prime last December and has since been a major force in the Buffs’ offense as seen from their training sessions. And as they get ready for the upcoming season in late August, Deion Sanders takes the time to endorse his highly-rated player on his special day.

Jordan Seaton’s HS hype landed him as one of the top players across the nation. The 6’5, 285-pounder played both guard and tackle in HS and earned MaxPreps First Team All-American honors three times. He enters Colorado as the third-highest-ranked player since 2000 as per 247Sports. His arrival in Boulder is met with so much warmth that it doesn’t take time for him to blend in as one of the Buffs.

Since his commitment, Jordan Seaton has been consistently captured on Well Off Media spending quality time hanging out with QB Shedeur Sanders with whom he shares a close bond. During an interview in March, the big Buffs’ OT weapon claimed, “Whoever’s behind me at quarterback, I’m going to block my b**t off. The bond Shedeur and I have makes you want to go harder.”

This comes after Shedeur Sanders’ plight last season when he had to suffer 52 sacks because of the poor O-line. Seaton also gave credit to their on-field chemistry saying, “With Shedeur back there, he’s so calm, and he moves in the pocket so well he makes my job easier.” He truly is a valuable haul who can potentially transform the Buffs O-line this season. But putting the upcoming season aside for now, we wish Jordan Seaton a very happy birthday as he celebrates his big day!
