Colorado football has lost four consecutive games and six of its past seven. But Deion Sanders’s first year in Boulder has been a success for how much he’s raised the profile of the program.
Yet, creating such a sensation also has a negative side. There’s an inherent assumption among fans and media that Sanders won’t be with the Buffaloes for very long. And opposing coaches are using that perception against him in recruiting.
On his weekly radio show (per CBS Sports), Sanders claimed that some rivals have told recruits that he will soon move on from Boulder. This appears to be a particular concern after four-star receiver prospect Winston Watkins Jr. decommitted from Colorado.
