Former NFL coach Mike Zimmer is headed to Colorado to join the coaching staff of Buffaloes first-year head coach Deion Sanders.
On Monday, Sanders confirmed the news in a video posted to Thee Pregame Show’s YouTube channel, saying that Zimmer “is coming too, by the way” as well as teasing the idea of others joining his staff. Sanders also emphasized Zimmer’s knowledge of the game and his ability to interact with young athletes.
“Forget the titles – they know this game and they know kids and they've been capable of making tremendous decisions with the kids and the young men in mind,” Sanders said in the video. “So that's what I adore the most – understanding how to establish the relationships with these young men.”
