Coach Prime is officially heading to Boulder, Colorado.
Football legend Deion Sanders has been named the new University of Colorado football head coach, the school announced Saturday. Sanders will be leaving Jackson State University, where he coached the Tigers for the past three seasons, compiling a record of 26-5 – including going undefeated this season. The Tigers won the Southwestern Athletic Conference championship earlier Saturday, defeating Southern University 43-24.
“Not only will Coach Prime energize our fanbase, I’m confident that he will lead our program back to national prominence while leading a team of high quality and high character.” Sanders was drafted as a first-rounder in 1989 by the Atlanta Falcons out of Florida State and played in the league for 14 seasons with several franchises.
