Two years after a one-win campaign, the Colorado Buffaloes are currently 6-2 under the leadership of head coach Deion Sanders, who has delivered for his supporters and quieted critics this season.
Coach Prime’s Buffs are vastly improved on both sides of the ball and national pundits have taken notice. In a recent episode of “The Joel Klatt Show: A College Football Podcast,” Fox Sports analyst and former Colorado quarterback Joel Klatt offered his thoughts on the Buffs’ recent success.
“Deion Sanders gets hired, he brings his son Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter, he talked a big game about the transfer portal, and he has rebuilt that entire program,” Klatt said. “Deion Sanders has been an unequivocal success, and I mean home run success. There is no other way to categorize it. All of you that want to take shots because you don’t like his style now have to sit there and watch his team play tough at the line of scrimmage, do a better job at the offensive line running the football and taking care of the ball and now they’re 6-2.”
Klatt would later call out those who doubted Sanders’ ability to coach.
“Where are all of you now that think Deion is a joke?” Klatt said. “Where are all of you now that think Deion is only in it for himself? This guy can coach, and I’m glad he’s going it at Colorado.”
After a bye week, Colorado will battle Texas Tech in Lubbock on Nov. 9 (time and television TBD).
