The Deion Sanders coaching era at Colorado begins Saturday when the Buffaloes visit No. 17 TCU. Colorado hired the charismatic Sanders away from Jackson State.

If I were a player on CU's roster, I would have refused to enter the transfer portal and tried to convince my teammates to do the same. If Sanders isn't going to treat me like a human being, I'm not going to let him force me out. Under Pac-12 rules (and also Big XII, I guess, since they're moving), the school cannot pull the player's athletic scholarship. Now with NIL, I'm sure they could ask boosters for money to create private scholarships so it wouldn't stop his crazy overhaul, but it would make it that much more annoying for him.

I understand they want to play football bad enough to look for a landing spot (good luck finding another P5 school), but come on, they're 18-22 years old. Don't deny them the opportunity to complete their education at the school they chose. That's something that will impact their whole life. For Sanders, CU is nothing but a pit stop for him on his way to flashier opportunities.
