“This Is the Last Year”: Deion Sanders Drops Eye-Catching Revelation on Shedeur & Shilo’s Future at Colorado

Deion Sanders is accustomed to his personality, causing a stir, a reaction that echoes his experiences as both a college and pro athlete. The Colorado football team initially made waves with a 3-0 start, becoming a focal point in college football discussions. The team’s success led to brisk sales of Colorado merchandise, and television ratings soared for a program that had finished the previous season with a 1-11 record. However, the critics became vocal as the Buffaloes struggled to a 4-8 finish, losing eight of their last nine games.

As the 2023 regular season ends, Deion Sanders seeks to right the wrongs in the upcoming season. Apart from revamping the Colorado roster, much like how he did when he first stepped into the head coach’s shoes, he has special plans concerning his sons, Shilo and Shedeur. On his recent appearance on Shannon Sharpe and Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson’s ‘Nightcap,’ the former two-way sports star shed considerable slight on his game plan, which includes the future of his sons at Boulder.

The Sanders family, including star quarterback Shedeur Sanders, is considering a return to the Colorado Buffaloes for the upcoming season, with all three family members potentially coming back. On his appearance on ‘Nightcap,’ Deion Sanders stated that as much as he enjoys his time coaching his sons, this year will probably be the last, “that’s gonna be the best year of my life because this is the last year I get to coach my boys.”

Despite Shedeur’s eligibility for the 2024 NFL Draft, where he stands as a potential top quarterback selection, and the likelihood of his brother Shilo contemplating a professional turn, coach and father Deion Sanders indicates that the collegiate standouts are leaning towards extending their college careers into the fall rather than immediately pursuing professional opportunities, a decision slated for spring 2025. Sanders further addresses the difficulties he faced during the first year of his tenure at Colorado in his docuseries, “Coach Prime,” which is being aired on Amazon Prime.
