Interestingly, the advice from Coach Prime is exactly the kind of words of wisdom he needs. While Sanders has been quoting about finding one’s path during the chaos, the timing is almost impeccable.

The tough dilemma in front of Coach Prime

Right now, Prime himself is facing a conflicting decision. With his new role as the head coach at Colorado, Sanders has to make a decision about the Buffaloes’ future. With some monumental changes in terms of media deals, the Colorado Buffaloes might switch their conference from Pac-12 to the Big 12. This is mainly due to the reduced media deal the Pac-12 is expected to sign. The projections for Pac-12 have taken a huge hit, expecting a loss of almost $200 million. The speculated deal for Pac-12 has dropped from an annual earning of $500 million to $300 million. This would mean that instead of each football program getting $42 million they will be looking at a $30 million earning. Surprisingly, the Pac-12 league has already lost schools like USC and UCLA.

While Shaq shared the unifying thoughts of Coach Prime, Sanders himself is stuck in a chaotic situation. Prime will need to figure out a purposeful plan for Colorado’s future. The question that remains: Will Sanders lead his football program in the right direction or will he crash and burn?
