After a disappointing season last year, the Colorado Buffaloes decided to make a huge change in their leadership and signed NFL legend Deion Sanders as the team’s Head Coach last December. Sanders joined the Buffs in a 5-year $29.5 million deal, kickstarting the Coach Prime era in Colorado. Before joining the Buffaloes, Sanders was the coach of Jackson State University, where he led the team to 2 Celebration Bowl appearances.
