Deion Sanders dropped a cool nugget about his son, Shedeur Sanders, following their satisfying win over TCU on Saturday.
Shedeur had a particularly great game as he passed for 510 yards and four touchdowns with zero interceptions to fire Colorado to a 45-42 victory in a game most people expected them to lose. However, as Deion has revealed, the performance wasn’t random and Shedeur was dialing someone’s number the whole time.
Speaking on ‘The Pat McAfee Show’ on Monday, Coach Prime claimed Shedeur went into the game with a chip on his shoulder because TCU offensive coordinator Kendal Briles once ignored him at a camp they went to while Briles was working with another program.
“He loves the game, he studies the game, he prepares the game, and he has a chip on his shoulder,” Deion told Pat.
“The reason he was so intense and relaxed and ready — not only did he study, but we went to the camp of a certain school, and a certain coordinator we just played against, he’s the offensive coordinator, he was at that school, and we went to that school’s camp, and he didn’t pay him no attention.
“I don’t even think he barely spoke to him. He just pushed him off to the side.”
Deion said Shedeur told him that he would never go back to that school after the way he was treated.
“That’s why I tell my guys [coaches], you be careful on these visits because these kids see everything. Be careful how you treat them because you never know when they’re gonna come up and beat you.”

“He dissected them,” he added.
“He wanted to beat that guy so bad that he just went to work.”
Briles was the OC at Florida State in 2019 and at Arkansas from 2020 to 2022.
It would help if Shedeur has a gripe against someone – anyone – at Nebraska as that’s who the Buffaloes will be playing next.
