Less than 24 hours after winning the SWAC championship as the coach of Jackson State, Deion Sanders addressed the media in his first press conference as the new football coach at Colorado.
Speaking to a room full of reporters, Sanders delivered an impassioned speech about what he hopes to do with the Buffaloes, a team that went 1–11 and finished last in the Pac-12 this season. Coach Prime expressed in a rousing monologue that he hoped to completely revamp the program and bring the school back to achieve its ultimate goal: winning.
“Now that I’ve gotten here and I see and I can understand it and I can grasp it, and I can feel it and I can touch it and I can taste it. I truly understand what you want,” Sanders said. “All you want is an opportunity to win. To compete, to dominate. To be among the elite, to be among the best. And darn it, I’m gonna give you that.
