Coach Prime in Boulder

On the sidelines as a coach for the Colorado Buffaloes, Deion Sanders is known to wear a cowboy hat, with sunglasses. It doesn’t matter if the sun is out, or if it is a night game. “Coach Prime” shows up in style. 

The Buffaloes are currently 3-4 overall this season with a 1-3 record in Big 12 conference play. Colorado is coming off of a big home win over the ten ranked No. 22 Iowa State Cyclones. They now enter their bye week and hope that this momentum carries over to their road game against the Utah Utes.  

Sanders is in his third year in Boulder. Year one had a quick 3-0 start, but they ended up losing eight of their last nine games to finish 4-8. 2024 was a huge bounce back season. The Buffaloes went 9-4 and had Heisman trophy winning cornerback/wide receiver Travis Hunter, who ended up being selected No. 2 by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the 2025 NFL Draft. 

Also in 2024, quarterback Shedeur Sanders took home the Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year award before being selected by the Cleveland Browns.

Sanders was selected No. 5 overall out of Florida State in the 1989 NFL Draft by the Atlanta Falcons. His NFL career was from 1989 through 2005.

During this time, Sanders was named to nine All-Pro teams, made eight Pro Bowls, won 1994 NFL Defensive Player of the Year, and was a two-time Super Bowl champion. He had 53 interceptions in his career and 22 total touchdowns.
