Colorado lost one receiver on Sunday, but gained another.
Ten days after committing to CU, Marshall transfer EJ Horton announced Sunday that he is heading to West Virginia instead.
Meanwhile, the Buffaloes got a commitment from former Northwestern State receiver Javon Antonio.
Listed at 6-foot-4, 220 pounds, Antonio will be the biggest receiver on the CU roster. He has one season of eligibility remaining.
Last season, Antonio earned second team All-Southland Conference honors after catching 68 passes for 684 yards and six touchdowns. He was second on the team in catches and yards and led the Demons in receiving touchdowns.
Antonio was also second team All-Southland Conference in the COVID-shortened spring 2021 season. In five games, he caught 31 passes for 521 yards and four touchdowns, leading the Demons in all three categories. He reshirted in the 2021 fall season.
After starring at East St. John (La.) High School, Antonio played two seasons at Hinds (Miss.) Community College. He caught 22 passes in each of his two seasons at Hinds.
Horton committed to CU on May 4 after catching 16 passes in three seasons at Marshall. Instead of CU, he has elected to stay in the Mountain State.
CU has 76 projected scholarship players for next season, including 12 receivers.
