Was it to just play for Prime and a big NIL deal. Seems like he would have gotten alot of playing time and been a key piece of a revamped defenses

I wish Wiggins the best, but if he couldn’t get on the field this past season, he wasn’t going to cut it at a program like LSU.

Raw prospect that started playing football his sophomore year of high school if I remember correctly. He always had a high ceiling but something just never clicked. Also didn’t help he had three defensive line coaches in as many years.

With the right coaching, I think he can still be a solid player. Wish the best for him!

He’s an EDGE. We’re fine there.

CU only for PT like someone stated he couldn't get it last year here. It wasn't going happen this year and beyond.

There were so many baws screaming from the rooftops that he was a can’t miss In-state guy who was a key signee in that class.

It does make me wonder if his career outlook was severely altered by that incident where he was slapped around 75’ across the pavement in San Antonio riding that scooter.

IIRC, he bounced back like a freak athlete very shortly after the actual collision and the injuries weren’t anything crazy/career threatening. Who knows though.

We have plenty of SDE’s. He also seemed to be a “look like Tarzan, play like Jane” type of guy.

Probably realized he wasn't going to crack the 2 deep and figured CU would love to throw some cash at an SEC guy.

Just because he didn't get playing time doesn't mean he can't play. House was really bad at identifying roles all over the defense. He kept sending out #2 and #35 all year.

Yea man everybody is chomping at the bit to play for “Prime” and go 4-8 every year while he plays middle school coach and makes it all about his sons. And don’t forget that gigantic bankroll Colorado is working with
