Last week, Deion Sanders along with his Colorado Buffaloes team found themselves involved in a social media controversy. Opposition was raised towards Sanders, who is the head coach, regarding his method of managing his team’s lineup revamp. On social media, Sanders addressed his critics and defended his son, Shedeur, against a fan who criticized him for his overconfidence despite the team’s 4-8 season. Sanders fired back by stating that his son is a potential top-five draft and questioned about the critic’s son’s future.
On “Thee Pregame Show,” Sanders clarified his responses, acknowledging that he needed to improve his reactions but maintained that he didn’t say anything hurtful and does not attack people. He also got into an online spat involving Austin Peay defensive back Jaheim Ward and Colorado’s Kaleb Mathis. A user posted Ward’s stats and suggested him to retire, to which Sanders reacted by saying “Lawd Jesus.”
Sanders later elucidated his remark on a podcast, saying that his reaction was directed towards the user’s harsh criticism against Ward. However, the verbal spats brought negative attention to the Colorado Buffaloes. Further, Shedeur Sanders’ draft possibilities might have been impacted by the incident.
