- Deion Sanders is currently 7-2 with his Colorado Buffaloes, this season
- Coach Prime has been linked with the Head Coach job the Dallas Cowboys
- Sanders was quick to shut down the speculation during an appearance on Speak on FS1
Deion Sanders is going nowhere. At least for the time being, anyway.
Coach Prime is committed to his 7-2 Colorado Buffaloes and won’t let even the merest speculation of a move to the Dallas Cowboys disrupt his flow this season.
The two time Superbowl winner, who spent four years in Dallas between 1995 and 1999, lifting the Lombardi trophy in his inaugural season with the Cowboys, has been linked with the Head Coach job at the AT&T Stadium with the Cowboys enduring a miserable campaign, currently sat third in the NFC East with a 3-6 record.
And, during an appearance on FS1’s Speak, Prime Time’s former teammate Michael Irvin attempted to pose the question to Sanders about the speculation surrounding his future. But the 57-year-old wasn’t having any of it.
Irvin was about to ask the question when Sanders cut him off with, “Don’t start that”. Not to be deterred, Irvin continued, only for Sanders to once again cut him off by picking up his laptop and walking across his office to show Folsom Field in the background, repeating the line, “I love it where I am”, much to the amusement of the guests and analysts in the studio.
With the Buffaloes currently in second place in the Big 12, it’s not surprising that Sanders is loving life in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, right now. But with sons Shilo and Shedeur gone next season, it could be that Coach Prime returns to Texas to cement another legacy in the Lone Star State.
As a coach, Sanders has already impressed, leading Jackson State University to back-to-back Southwestern Athletic Conference titles, in 2021 and 2022, being named SWAC Coach of the Year for both years, respectively.
