It's a wild time to be a college football coach this year as the likes of Billy Napier, James Franklin and Brian Kelly have been sacked by their respective schools amid their disappointing seasons. Could another high-profile name, Deion Sanders, be next?
Sanders is nearing the end of his third season at the helm of the Buffaloes and has earned just three wins in 2025, one year after his son Shedeur and Travis Hunter left for the pros. Following a respectable '24 campaign in which the Buffaloes went 9-4 before losing their fifth straight bowl game against BYU, some thought Sanders could actually turn Colorado's program around, having already lifted the school to national recognition by virtue of his fame alone.
