Days After Taking Colorado Job, Deion Sanders Pulls Scholarship Offer From 3-Star Recruit

Deion Sanders’ new employment has been the talk around football. The legendary football Hall of Famer made the jump in his coaching career as he moved to the University of Colorado. Sanders will be the new man in charge of the Buffaloes. Sanders will look to make the buffaloes a top contention team, as he will want to impress his new employers. 

With a man as dynamic as Deion Sanders in charge, the Colorado team will now attract top high school athletes across the country. While this will be an opportunity for many, it may go the other way for a few athletes too. As he brings his own philosophies to the team, Sanders was the reason a top recruit lost his spot after committing to the previous management. 

Deion Sanders shows no mercy to a high schooler

As Sanders puts his team together this Spring, all the players will look to make a mark under the new head coach. A change in coaching staff can also bring in opportunities for players that didn’t fit the scheme under the previous coach.

However, no matter how talented or hard-working a player may be, if they don’t fit the coach’s plans, there is only one way for them. That way is generally the way out of it.

Deion Sanders’ latest appointment as head coach meant this for one of the top incoming recruits for college football. California-based Carson Mott lost his offer as Sanders took over in Colorado. Mott played as an edge for Simi Valley High School in California.

Time for Carson Mott to bounce back

The three-star recruit was highly recruited by the previous Buffaloes coach, Karl Dorrell. He committed to the Colorado team earlier this year in June. However, his college plans were cut short by the NFL hall of Famer, Sanders. No reason is available to the public for this quick change of plans. However, Sanders definitely must have had a reason behind this.

However unfortunate this situation may be, it is generally how a change in management works. This echoes across all sports at all levels. From high school to the pro levels, this is generally how a change in management can affect the future of a player’s career.

Unfortunately for Mott, his recruitment process will reopen. Time will tell if Sanders’ decision worked out for he better or worse for him. As for Mott, wherever he will end up, he will want to prove to Sanders that he made the wrong decision.
