Deion ( "Prime Time") Sanders has taken over the coaching role at Colorado and is taking off with it. Since Coach Sanders has united with the University of Colorado he has brought in 47 players from the transfer portal, a lot of money, and a lot of fame. He recently just signed a $29.5 million dollar deal with Nike, which is interesting becuase his kid (Shedeur Sanders) current quaterback at Colorado has a big deal signed with Under Armour. Colorado is a Nike school so, therefore, Shedeur has to rep Nike despite having an Under Armour deal.
Deion has already changed Colorado for the better. Starting off the season with three wins is pretty big for this program. Colorado has also officaly sold out of tickets for the season which would make them the first team to sell out for the season. As of now Colorado plays in the Pacific-12 Football Conference, but they have future plans of going to the big 12 in 2024 season. That move will now make the Big 12 consist of 16 teams, which will be the largest it's ever been in league history. Many people have said Colorado has no buisness being in the big 12, but does their 45-42 win over TCU (current Big 12 team) solidify the fact their a good team?
Many people depise of Coach Sanders due to his personality. Even though he is very cocky in ways, he passes off good energy to his team. Before the season started Coach Sanders stated, " we're going to take over the college football world." Coach Sanders has also stated one of his Players (Travis Hunter), a two way player playing offense and defense, is "him." Hunter is in contentions for a heisman season as he has been putting up ridiculous numbers. Nebraska's head coach, Matt Rhule, claims what Coach Sanders is doing is good for college football.

Great topic choice and well done Hagen! Be sure to comment back on three different days.
I think Colorado is going to get better with Deion Sanders because he was a good football player so he will teach his players what he did when he played football, But I don't know anything about football.
Coach Sanders has really made an incredible difference for the Colorado football team. I think his attitude is really good but can maybe get a little out of control every now and again. Me personally I think Colorado has a very good chance of making playoffs or even better.
I agree, even tho his attitude can get out of control at times it adds excitment. I believe Colorado has a legetimate shot at making the playoffs with the talent they have.
I think he's a great coach and he desrves success. I could see why a lot of people don't like his cockyness, but football is always gonna have cocky people and that makes things interesting.
I agree, cockyness may be hard to like but when his results show up like they do it might be hard to not be cocky. It defiently makes things interesting considering he thinks he is the best coach in college football.
I think Coach Sanders is changing the Colorado program for the better. They have started off the season with three big victories, including the huge game against Colorado State. I think his attidude motivates his players and makes them more confident on the field. I am excited to see how the rest of their season turns out and how they will continue to make program history.
I agree, his attitude makes his players think there the best in college football. Which also helps because there not scared to play anyone.
I think Coach Prime is doing good things for college football so far this year every Colorado game has been sold out which makes more money for the NCAA and for the football programs. I believe his attitude is because he is so confident about his team and if you think his sportsmanship is bad look at the Colorado vs. Colorado state game Colorado State is showing sportsmanship that game.
I think Coach Sanders is bringing more money into college football which is good and bad. A lot of people watch college football because the players do not get paid and work harder to be drafted. I think Colorado is just getting started with their success.
