Colorado tight end Caleb Fauria announced Monday that he intends to enter the transfer portal, an announcement made notable by two things: 1.) Fauria is one of a relative few holdovers from the Karl Dorrell era to play for Deion Sanders with Buffaloes, and 2.) the graduate transfer is the son of longtime NFL tight end and former Colorado star Christian Fauria.
“I appreciate my time spent at the University of Colorado and all the memories I have made,” Caleb Fauria wrote on social media, announcing the move. “I will be entering the transfer portal as a grad transfer (May 2024) with 2 years of eligibility. Looking for ward to my next opportunity and ready to compete.”
The younger Fauria’s note is pretty standard fare for a college football player in the transfer portal era. His father was not so complimentary toward his alma mater, however, just one day before his son’s announcement.
