After being thrust into action as a true freshman last season, Colorado quarterback Julian Lewis is expected to have a better showing in 2026. ESPN's Adam Rittenberg spoke to an opposing coach who said they're looking forward to seeing how Lewis performs this season. "Super talented," said a coach set to face Lewis this season. Lewis decommitted from USC and reclassified to the 2025 class to play for Deion Sanders at Colorado. "He's got a good skill set," a Big 12 coach said of Lewis.
