Colorado football continues to add missing pieces from last season. Coach Deion Sanders got the commitment of another offensive weapon with Matthew Bedford announcing that he was headed to Boulder.

"I BELIEVE. #WeComing @DeionSanders #COMMITTED !!" Bedford put up on Twitter on Tuesday, December 12.

The three-star tackle is the latest transferee joining the Buffs. Bedford was a starter for the Indiana Hoosiers. In the past five seasons, he started in 38 of 41 games for Hoosiers, where he had 11 of his 38 starts at left guard, 10 at right guard, nine at right tackle, and eight at left tackle, SI.com reported.

Bedford reunites with Benson

Bedford's decision also came after his former teammate, Kahlil Benson, committed to the Colorado Buffaloes last Saturday, December 9.

He has one year of eligibility left after this transfer. He will join a group of offensive linemen, including Benson, Justin Mayers, Tyler Johnson, and Yakiri Walker.

Coach Prime continues to put key pieces in place for a better showing next season. Aside from Benson and Bedford, there is also 4-star wide receiver Dre'Lon Miller.

Miller opted to join the Buffs after initially committing to Texas A&M. But after the dismissal of Jimbo Fisher, the Texas native retracted his commitment.

Before joining the Buffs, Miller also visited the LSU Trojans, the Auburn Tigers, and the Miami Hurricanes. However, it was with the Buffaloes that he made a connection, per ESPN.

"I felt the connection instantly. You know, I feel like that was God giving me the sign," Miller said to Blake Baumgartner of ESPN.
