Many opinions are emerging as day one of the early signing period comes to a close without any action from the 5-star Colorado commit. On Wednesday, Jordan Seaton didn’t sign his National Letter of Intent on the National Signing Day. But his appearance on the Instagram live on Wednesday night has given fans a lot to ponder. 

Recently in a conversation with Hayes Fawcett on a live IG session, the 5-star recruit left the college football world astir with his unexpected commitment, “I’m still a Buff.” But the discussion seems to have no conclusive decision as Seaton is yet to sign with any team. A recent Twitter post from Seaton following his live session caught the attention of fans.

With lots of speculation arising from people following his talk on the live IG story, Jordan Seaton posted his emotions on Twitter, only to be taken down moments later. He uploaded Hayes Fawcett’s IG link to the “Instagram live with 5-Star OL Jordan Seaton” where “Seaton will break down his recruitment/plans moving forward.” Seaton sarcastically captioned the post, “Be nice I’m just a kid this is a big decision.”

Jordan Seaton announced his commitment to Coach Prime Deion Sanders and the Buffaloes on Undisputed on December 7. He said, “You got to believe in coach Prime you know, have an opportunity to play with somebody who done it at the highest, level gold jacket level…” Prime Time told Seaton, “If you claim you a dawg, why you not coming to Colorado?” 

Despite receiving numerous enticing offers from schools nationwide and not originally listing the Buffaloes among his top six choices, the 6-foot-5, 295-pound offensive tackle’s surprising revelation has sent shockwaves through the college football community.
