Deion Sanders, Colorado in pursuit of a Wisconsin class of 2026 commit

Wisconsin football class of 2026 defensive line commit Djidjou Bah picked up an offer from Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes on Thursday.

The offer continues a busy two months for the three-star defensive lineman, who committed to the Badgers on June 1. He first took an official visit to Missouri in late June, then picked up a notable offer from Big Ten contender Penn State. Colorado now joins that list of high-profile programs looking to flip the Germantown, Tennessee, native from Wisconsin.

Bah, who chose the Badgers in June over top contenders Michigan State, Indiana, Iowa and Northwestern, is currently 247Sports’ No. 809 overall player in the class of 2026, its No. 91 defensive lineman and its No. 21 player from Tennessee. As of July 25, neither 247Sports nor Rivals/On3 are predicting the defensive lineman to flip his commitment.

Wisconsin would do well to retain the fast-rising defensive lineman, given his updated list of suitors. The program recently saw high-three-star defensive back Zachary Taylor flip his commitment to TCU. That move pushed the Badgers’ class down to 14 total commitments — a group that currently ranks No. 60 nationally. Losing Bah would only accelerate that downward trajectory.
