Shedeur Sanders is more than ready for the leap to Power Five football.
His skillset passes the eye test and perhaps just as important, his team typically finds the win column when he’s starting at quarterback. FOX college football analyst RJ Young pointed out last week that in six combined seasons at Trinity Christian High School and Jackson State, Sanders’ starting record is 70-8, which equates to a winning percentage of just under .900.
The individual statistics that Colorado’s new starting QB produced at his two previous stops are equally impressive. Under current CU linebackers coach Andre’ Hart, Sanders threw for 12,627 yards and 166 touchdowns at Trinity Christian and was rated a four-star prospect by most recruiting outlets.
Sanders then racked up 6,983 passing yards and 79 total touchdowns in his two seasons at JSU. The Pac-12 may be a considerable step up from the FCS, but Sanders has proven himself equipped for the challenge.
Shedeur Sanders is 70-8 as a starting quarterback through high school and college.
