BOULDER—Several new players joined the Colorado football team on Tuesday.
Head coach announced the addition of the players on the first day of the spring semester.
Five of the newcomers are early high school graduates: receiver Jaylon Jackson, defensive back Isaiah Lewis, quarterback Tyler Lytle, offensive lineman Jake Moretti and defensive end Dante Sparaco.
Defensive end Shamar Hamilton is joining CU as a JUCO transfer from ASA College in Miami.
Jackson, from Cedar Hills (Texas) High School, dealt with injuries during his junior and senior seasons, but is a highly rated prospect. He’s also has great speed, having run the 100-meter dash in 10.55 seconds in high school.
Lewis, from Granite Bay (Calif.) High School, played a variety of positions in the secondary in high school and also played on offense. He played only four games as a senior because of a shoulder injury, but is fully healthy as he enters CU.
