Deion Sanders is “Coach Prime” for a reason. Known for his dedication as a player, Sanders, as a coach, has some greater responsibilities. Ever since taking charge of the Colorado Buffaloes, Sanders has given some rays of hope because of his commitment. Even after facing severe taunts from coaches in the same industry, he stayed determined to achieve his goal and fulfill the duty he was entrusted with. And yet again, he faces another mishap.
Notably, the Colorado team had been in shambles for years until Sanders came along. The Buffaloes have finally started picking their pieces and finding their way. However, now the team’s Athletic Conference, Pac-12, suddenly faces several challenges that can alter the future of college football itself.

The Pac-12 Conference has been facing unsolvable difficulties for a while now. UCLA Bruins and USC Trojans have already left the conference and are set to be part of the Big Ten from August next year. But the situation seems to get worse as the media rights of the Pac-12 expire next year, and there aren’t any interested parties to renew it. Amidst the mishaps, Deion Sanders posted a video on Instagram thanking the fans and ending it by saying, “We Coming“. Does this perhaps indicate a move of his team from the conference?

The team had already been a part of the Big-12 from 1994 to 2010. They moved to Pac-12 in 2010, for better opportunities. But now that Pac-12 is losing the teams that audiences love and adore, it is very hard for them to gain a new or revised contract worth $300 million dollars.
Big-12 in talks with Colorado Buffaloes?
As the Pac-12 faces life-threatening difficulties, Big-12 has been relentless in pursuit of expansion. They have already added newer schools in their conference, and offer significant changes that tend to attract newer teams. There have been several reports that Colorado Buffaloes have been planning a move to the Big 12.

Although nothing is certain, there are clear indications that the Buffaloes and Arizona Wildcats are the top two coveted teams for the league. If Pac-12 manages to sign a huge deal, the story could change. But big media houses are not even interested in Pac-12 as they have started to lose teams. It’s only a matter of time before official announcements are made.
