For the third time in the last three weeks, the Buffaloes have added to their 2024 prep signing class.
6-foot-4, 330-pound offensive lineman Yahya Attia, from the NFL Academy in England, announced his commitment to Colorado on Wednesday. BuffStampede.com has confirmed Attia will be a scholarship addition for CU, now giving them 10 high school signees to go with 25 transfer pick-ups.
Attia had other reported offers, from FCS programs Campbell and Long Island. He was under-the-radar of Power 4 programs until Buffaloes offensive line coach Phil Loadholt evaluated him and extended an offer in mid-March.
Attia was born in Egypt, but was primarily raised in Austria before enrolling at the NFL Academy. The England-based program also produced linebacker Kofi Taylor-Barrocks, who joined the Buffaloes last year.
