Colorado coach Deion Sanders is a man used to winning. He won four bowl games at Florida State, a National League pennant with the Braves, Super Bowls with the 49ers and Cowboys, and a pair of SWAC titles as Jackson State’s coach.
The Buffaloes, however, are in a different solar system from those champions. Colorado is reeling from a 1–11 season—the team’s worst in a decade—and in the midst of a complete roster overhaul a year before switching conferences.
Some coaches would zero in on culture as a means of kickstarting a turnaround. Sanders is not some coaches.
