Jackson State coach Deion Sanders has been one of the hottest names swirling around college football’s coaching rumor mill as the 2022 regular season reaches its end. Those rumors have at least some substance as Sanders has interviewed for the head-coaching job at Colorado, sources tell Sports Illustrated’s Richard Johnson.
Bruce Feldman of Fox Sports reported Saturday morning that Colorado went as far as to offer Coach Prime the job. Feldman said that he was told Sanders “has legit interest” in filling the Buffs’ vacancy and that the program is optimistic about its chances to pry him away from Jackson State.
