Former TCU WR Cordale Russell gives commitment to Colorado

“Baby T.O.” is coming to Boulder

Last season, Colorado head coach Deion Sanders got Pro Football Hall of Fame wide receiver Terrell Owens to coach up Travis Hunter. Well, Coach Prime better have Owens on speed dial because Cordale Russell, also known as “Baby T.O.,” transferred to the Buffs on Sunday.

Russell comes to Colorado by way of TCU, and he fits the bill of his nickname. Listed at 6-foot-4 and 210 pounds, the freshman Russell brings a lot of size to the wide receiver position. Watching his high school film, two things immediately jump off the screen. First, Russell uses his size effectively in jump ball situations. He can high-point the ball well and come down with catches over smaller defensive backs. Second, Russell should be a yards-after-catch monster for CU, especially in the bubble screen game.

Russell was a four-star athlete in the 2022 class and only spent one season at TCU, so Buffs fans should see plenty of this big wideout in the coming seasons.

Kienholz again, Ohio State signee throws second touchdown during All-American Bowl

Make it two for Lincoln #GoBucks

One, two, three, four. That’s how many touchdowns future [autotag]Ohio State[/autotag] Buckeyes scored on Saturday in the All-American Bowl.

The first two were from receivers, [autotag]Brandon Inniss[/autotag] and [autotag]Carnell Tate[/autotag]. The final two were courtesy of quarterback [autotag]Lincoln Kienholz[/autotag]. His first was a scramble and throw. On the second, the dual-threat had a clean pocket and threw a dart to his receiver for a 38-yard scoring strike.

The ball was perfectly placed to [autotag]TCU[/autotag] signee [autotag]Cordale Russell[/autotag], who was hit in stride into the end zone. The game was obviously out of hand before this score, but it still showed to [autotag]Ryan Day[/autotag] that Kienholz can do everything at the position.

A very good showing for future Buckeyes, as they were part of 28 out of 65 total points during the game.
