The battle to land Colorado transfer Jordan Seaton is escalating, with reported NIL demands pushing into unprecedented territory for an offensive lineman.
“The number for Colorado OL Jordan Seaton is between $4–5 million,” WVUE TV's Garland Gillen reported on social media.
LSU, Oregon and Miami are all believed to be in pursuit of the left tackle, who remains unsigned as the No. 1 offensive lineman and a top-five overall player in the On3 transfer rankings.

The recruitment intensified Tuesday as LSU's Lane Kiffin boarded a private plane to Washington, D.C., and later Atlanta. Seaton is from the D.C. Area and still has family there after finishing his high school career at IMG Academy in Florida before signing with Deion Sanders and Colorado.
After a multi-day visit in Baton Rouge, Seaton traveled to Atlanta, where he trains in the offseason with Pro Football Hall of Famer Willie Anderson. Seaton canceled a previously planned visit to Oregon while on LSU’s campus.
The Ducks responded by sending head coach Dan Lanning and offensive line coach A’lique Terry to Atlanta to meet with him Tuesday night.
