Some are beginning to formulate a game plan as far as official visits are concerned, while others have started to narrow down their list of options ahead of an eventual decision day.

With respect to the latter, Colorado recently found itself on two such lists, with a pair of Top 10s featuring the Buffaloes being released in the last several days.

First up is California Chula Vista (Mater Dei) Calif. wideout Surahz Buncom, a 6-foot-4, 175-pound prospect who picked up an offer from Colorado back in January.

The Buffs were one of the first six programs to offer Buncom, whose sheet is now north of a dozen.

Colorado made the cut along with Duke, Oregon State, Boise State, K-State, Oregon, Colorado State, Nevada, Brigham Young and Kansas.

In April, Buncom spoke with Rivals' Adam Gorney, where he mentioned having an appreciation for the culture at Colorado.

As of now, Buncom has yet to scheduled any official visits.

The Buffs also appeared in a Top 10 released on Twitter by Buford, Ga. linebacker Ryan McKinnis, a three-star prospect.

Buford High School should ring a bell for CU fans; incoming freshmen Victor Venn and Aubrey Smith are both Wolves alums, a program that has won three consecutive Georgia state titles (at the 5A level in 2019 and at 6A in 2020 and 2021).

In addition to the Buffs, Princeton, Yale, East Carolina, Georgia State, Memphis, KU, West Virginia, Harvard and Duke were included in McKinnis' Top 10.

The 6-foot-2, 200-pounder was able to get on campus at CU earlier this spring for an unofficial visit.
