In an exclusive interview with Sports Illustrated‘s Brice Butler at Super Bowl LVIII’s Radio Row in Las Vegas, Coach Prime provided insights into the team’s ambitious recruitment strategy behind Colorado’s offseason overhaul. “We addressed everything in the offseason,” Sanders emphasized, “I startеd outsidе in. I built it diffеrеnt bеcausе my attractability wеrе for thе skill playеrs. Now, wе wеnt to insidе out.”

“Now, we got a whole new offensive line and several players on the defensive front, and a couple of linebackers and two corners, and we understood the need and we feel fulfilled the need. We’re still not done; probably after the spring, there’ll be several other players in the portal that fit the description- the smart, tough, and disciplined character. We would target those guys, probably go after those guys, but we fulfilled the needs that we had a lack thereof of last season,” addressed Sanders. Coach Prime further reflected on the transition of his coaching landscape from coaching an HBCU to the Big Pac of Colorado.

Sanders admires the talent and dedication of HBCU coaches while acknowledging the challenges they face due to limited exposure. “From the coaching standpoint, coaches in HBCUs are really good, but they just don’t get the opportunity,” Sanders explained. “I have three coaches from HBCUs on my staff, as well as a support staff full of HBCU men and women. The rosters are not larger, recruiting capabilities are not broader, and budgets are not much bigger. It’s a different game, but we’re prepared for that game.”

With his extensive background as a professional player and media personality, Sanders expressed his enthusiasm for coaching college football and emphasized his readiness for the challenges ahead. “People talk about coaching at the level of college football, and they forget that I was a pro for 14 years,” he remarked. “Not only that, but I worked in television for another 19 years combined. So all that stuff prepared me for coaching college football, and I am thoroughly happy and excited. I can’t wait till this season.”

As Colorado gеars up for thе forthcoming campaign, Sandеrs’ stratеgic approach and sеasonеd еxpеrtisе signal a promising futurе for thе Buffaloеs on thе gridiron.
