In a recent interview, Coach Prime voiced his feelings about NIL deals. He said that Colorado is “not an ATM” for new recruits. Instead, he wanted passionate football players. This was quick to set off some analysts. Dan Patrick was one of the foremost among them. Patrick also had a problem with Sanders’ hypocrisy, that he bluntly called out. “Deion you’re rich, your kids got- they’re rich. Your son’s driving a Maybach, he’s flossing with a watch.”
His point was simple: NIL deals are one of the main attractions to lure in some of the best recruits across the conferences so it was natural for kids to be attracted to come and play for money and some fame. According to Patrick, when Colorado was the hot new thing in college football, with the team winning its first 3 games, recruits committed to them verbally.
