Nathaniel Hackett welcomes “Prime Time” to the state’s football scene

Deion Sanders’ swagger-fest introduction as the University of Colorado’s new head football coach played out Sunday as the Broncos put together another stagger-fest of an offensive outing in Baltimore.

“I met him one time as a kid, he probably wouldn’t remember that, but it’s Prime Time.
