The Colorado Buffaloes are re-joining the Big 12 Conference this fall.
LAS VEGAS — Colorado coach Deion Sanders said Wednesday at hisappearance that he has to operate under an entirely different umbrella when it comes to expectations.“I’m judged on a different scale,” Sanders said. “My wins are totally different than your wins. Your wins, you just judge football, that’s why I start out education and academics and so forth. I have to give you those things so you understand there’s a greater scope.
“I can’t win nine games and our GPA suffers,” Sanders said. “Our GPA can’t be high and we lose another eight games. We can’t not go and grab high school players, and you’ve got a bunch of guys in the portal, out of the portal getting incarcerated. My wins are different. We have to win in every area. That’s the way we’re judged.”
Shilo Sanders is going through a bankruptcy case he filed last October because he faces a nearly $11.9 million judgment stemming from an alleged assault against a Dallas school security guard who was trying to confiscate his phone in 2015. Shilo Sanders, now 24, was 15 at the time. Deion Sanders also spoke about Shedeur being recruited by some of his fellow Big 12 coaches — Gus Malzahn when the current UCF coach was still at Auburn — and the younger Sanders playing in high school for current Texas Tech coach Joey McGuire.
“Joey has been the same consistent great coach that he’s always been. Joey, if you out there, I love you, I appreciate you. You keep on doing what you do,” Sanders said."Except when we come to play you, I want you to keep on doing your thing. But I love you, man, I really do. And you’re doing a wonderful work down there at Texas Tech.”
