Flipping his commitment from Ole Miss to Colorado, class of 2027 three-star offensive lineman Coderro McDaniel made a splash on Sunday.
As a Mississippi resident, his decision to join the Buffs was heavily influenced by O-line coach Gunnar White, who also hails from the Magnolia State. That connection was essential in landing McDaniel from Brookhaven High School (Miss.)
After taking an official visit on the June 5-7 weekend, McDaniel was patient before announcing his commitment a week later. He had also received offers from North Carolina, Louisiana State, Kansas and Mississippi State.
McDaniel primarily plays left tackle and stands 6-foot-7, 310 pounds. As a prospect, he’s complete in both the run and pass. Athletic on his feet, his highlight reel showcases his physicality when playing.
In 2025, McDaniel’s team won the Class 5A State Championship during his junior season. The Buffs will look to capitalize on his championship experience as they expand their ‘27 class to a total of 17. He is currently one of five lineman.
