Okay, so I’ve been following this whole Deion Sanders thing at the University of Colorado, you know, “Coach Prime” and all that jazz. It’s been wild. Let me tell you about it, from start to finish.
First off, the guy took over as head coach, and bam! College football was never the same. He walked in there like he owned the place, and honestly, he kind of did. They started calling him “Professor Prime” because he was teaching a class – get this – called “Prime Time: Public Performance and Leadership”. I mean, who better to teach that, right?
So, I started digging into his background. Turns out, he did his time at Talladega College, an HBCU, and got his degree there. People kept associating him with Florida State because he played ball there, but he didn’t actually graduate from FSU. It’s all about Talladega for his degree.
Now, the real work began. I watched as he started changing things up. He was all about getting good players, not just from high schools but also from the transfer portal. He was basically building an NFL team within college football. It’s a total shift in the game. He found some good players and recruited some quality high school players, too. He even put together a solid coaching staff. I watched a lot of videos during this time.
I got curious about his coaching style and his plans. There was this one video where he’s talking about his new locker room and his timeline for the future. People are wondering if he’ll stick around after his sons leave. It’s all up in the air, but he’s definitely setting up for something big. They’re saying that Colorado has ‘expectations’ for 2025 and beyond. They have a lot of expectations.
- He brought in the NFL approach. The guy’s treating college football like it’s the pros. It’s a different game now.
- He’s teaching. Not just football, but leadership. That’s huge.
- He’s got a plan. Whether he stays long-term or not, he’s building something at Colorado.
This whole experience got me thinking about how much college football is changing. It’s not just about the game anymore; it’s about building a brand, about leadership, about the future. And Deion Sanders, Coach Prime, he’s right in the middle of it all.
I’m keeping my eye on this story. It’s going to be interesting to see where it all goes from here. What happens when his prized possessions are turning pro? Only time will tell, but one thing’s for sure, it’s a wild ride.
