Another previous starter is moving on.
According to a new report, Colorado offensive lineman Savion Washington is one of three CU players that plan on entering the transfer portal this spring. The report comes from On3 Sports’ recruiting reporter Hayes Fawcett.
Washington was the Buffs’ starting right tackle for most of last season, starting nine of the 10 games he appeared in. Before that he was at Kent State, where he started his college career playing for former Buffs’ offensive coordinator Sean Lewis – though he didn’t play much until 2022.
Now that Lewis is the head coach at San Diego State, it’s not surprising to see Washington head elsewhere. The Buffs had one of the worst offensive lines in the country last season: their 56 sacks allowed were the most by any team in the Pac-12, and 14 more than the second-worst (UCLA). The offseason plan was made pretty clear when, after a two-score loss to the Bruins last October, Coach Prime said that they needed to “go get new linemen.”
Aside from incoming recruit Jordan Seaton, most of that change has come in the transfer portal – of the 25 transfer that they currently have coming to Boulder next season, five of them are offensive linemen.
