After three years with the Alabama football program, defensive lineman [autotag]Anquin Barnes[/autotag] announced his decision to enter the transfer portal and continue his career with Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes. The Buffs need a lot of help on both sides of the line so it is a very good addition for Prime, and for Barnes, he will have a chance to be an immediate impact player.
Barnes recorded no stats during his time with Alabama so it was clear that finding a new home was likely his best decision. Coach Saban is usually very open and honest with players about what is best for their careers and I am sure this was an amicable and mutual decision.
According to 247 Sports composite rankings, Barnes was a three-star recruit out of high school. He was the No. 55 DL in the class and the No. 453 player overall so he could be a really nice piece for Colorado.
