00:00 Coach Prime can still make headlines,
00:01 even with Colorado losing.
00:03 Robin Lundberg, Claudette Montana, and Claudette.
00:05 After the game, Deion was asked how
00:08 he's going to protect Shador Sanders more.
00:11 And he said, we've got to get a new offensive line
00:13 or new players.
00:14 Are you OK with those comments?
00:17 Why are people surprised by this?
00:18 This is the same guy that when he came into Colorado,
00:21 he basically told everyone to transfer
00:23 and then proceeded to bring in an entirely new roster.
00:26 The reality is Deion Sanders wants to win football games.
00:29 Colorado has allowed 31 sacks on the season, the fourth most
00:33 in college football.
00:34 Shador Sanders was sacked seven times against UCLA.
00:37 If it's not working, he's going to want to change it up.
00:40 So is it the most politically correct thing
00:42 to say as a head coach?
00:43 No, but Deion Sanders does things his own way.
00:46 Well, he's wrong in this instance.
00:48 I've loved almost everything Coach Prime has done
00:50 at Colorado.
00:52 I think we all were in agreement about this.
00:54 They've got the skill position, guys.
00:55 They need to build up the lines.
00:57 Shador Sanders is the real deal.
00:58 Hunter, et cetera.
01:00 But they weren't good enough inside.
01:02 That is easy to see.
01:04 And we all believe that would be addressed in the offseason
01:08 the same way Deion addressed the team needs before,
01:11 as you already mentioned.
01:12 But you got guys that are playing right now,
01:15 young men that are playing right now.
01:17 And that's just not the message you want to send to them
01:19 as a coach.
01:20 In fact, if this doesn't light a fire under them--
01:23 and I could see it not.
01:24 I could see it going the other way--
01:26 Shador is going to be in even more trouble.
01:28 Because they weren't good enough blocking
01:31 when they were doing their best.
01:33 If they're a little dejected, how are they going to do?
01:35 So I'm not with Deion on these comments.
