Deion Sanders is adding another key assistant to his staff at Colorado, as he has reportedly hired Alabama assistant Sal Sunseri to coach the Buffaloes’ defensive tackles, according to a report from BuffZone.
Sunseri will replace Patrick Hill, who was initially hired by Sanders to help coach the defensive line. Hill left his post with Colorado earlier in the week after less than two months on the job to reportedly take a job on the Vikings’ staff in the NFL.
Sunseri has familiarity with Colorado defensive coordinator Charles Kelly, who he worked with under Nick Saban. Sunseri and Kelly also were on the same defensive staff under Jimbo Fisher at Florida State in 2013 and ’14.
