"Coach Deion Sanders has just informed his team that he is accepting the position as Head Football Coach at the

University Of Colorado," reported 247Sports college football analyst Carl Reed, who was with Sanders in Jackson, Miss. on Saturday.

 

Sanders comes to Colorado after three seasons as the head coach at Jackson State, where he went 27-5 and won back-to-back Southwestern Athletic Conference Championships. The Tigers are undefeated in 2022, following a 43-24 victory over Southern in the SWAC title game on Saturday.

The PAC 12 just got stronger.

We have been down that road, and hopefully aren't on that one again. How long will Dion last at Colorado?

 

Mel Tucker lasted 15 months, anyone care to guess if Dion last less or more?

 

I think there needs to be a term for coaches like this, maybe a temporizer? They are certainly opportunists, but I like the term temporizer, as we all know they will only be there temporarily.

 

Might be what Colorado needs to get over the hump, as Oregon did fairly well with a couple temporizers.

They have hit rock bottom. I think its a good hire. 

 Congrats to Colorado. This should help them recruit some skill position guys which has been a big problem lately. The pack just took another step forward.

We don't know what his goals are.

 

Let's keep our chins up!
