The University of Colorado Board of Regents on Thursday overwhelmingly voted to approve the employment contract of celebrated new head football coach Deion Sanders.
But it wasn’t unanimous.
The vote was 8-1.
Which means somebody had a reason to fly in the face of public pressure and vote against Sanders, whose hiring this month might have been the most exciting event to happen to the Buffaloes in more than 20 years.
So who is this dissident? And why did he do that?
His name is Jack Kroll, and USA TODAY Sports contacted him Thursday after the vote.
