Deion Sanders Faces Mounting Pressure to Win at Colorado

Boy, I tell you, college football is really heating up, and it's been absolutely awesome this year so far, but not so much for two coaches right now that are on the hot seat as we're speaking. And I'll say this to you about Deion Sanders and what he's meant to Colorado. There's no question he put them back on the map again. He is 19-26 as a Colorado Buffaloes head coach, making $11.5 million. Here's something else to put in context. He's 10-21 in conference play. He's 3-6 this season, and he's 1-5 in the Big 12. Last two years, they're 6-15. Like I said, a lot of recognition to the program. Boosters coming back to the program. Advertisers coming back to the program. But you got to win, and they're not winning there. And there's no question, when you make that kind of money, you've got to produce. And you know why? Kurt Cignetti in Bloomington shows you the blueprint. You can win anywhere if you do it right. I think Deion Sanders has more issues when it comes to trying to recruit kids because he doesn't leave Boulder. He sits behind his desk and he Zooms interviews with potential players to his program. Dude, you got to get off your ass and you got to go out and get kids if you want them to come and play for you. And they've got to be meaningful places for you to want to come and play. You can't just sit there and do what you're doing and not recruit. Deion is Deion. You know this. However, he was asked about his job security. Man, I don't think about that, man. I'm not here for my job. I'm here for these young men. I'm not built like that. I'm really not. I'm really, really, really not. I want these kids to Thank you. graduate, to provoke change in their communities, in their lives, in their families. Um, I ain't worried about me. I'm, I'm, I'm good, my brother. I'm not worried about me. I believe that. I know the guy, and I do believe that. I believe he does care about those kids. I do believe that he cares about their futures and wants them to be great people in the community, but you don't get merit badges for that in college football today. Hey, I want you to do the right thing. I want you to be a good man. Hey, well, thank you for not robbing a bank. These are the kind of kids you should be recruiting anyway to your program. Deion's got to win some football games or it's time for a change there in Boulder.
