After Saturday's SWAC championship game, ESPN's Pete Thamel reported that Deion Sanders would take over as the CU Buffs' head coach.

It has been a week since the announcement that CU athletic director Rick George had extended the same job offer to the current football coach at Jackson State for Boulder.

Coach Prime would receive more than $5 million annually from the Buffs if he relocated to Boulder, according to CBS 4's Justin Adams on Friday. This led to an increase in conversation about it.

For a programme that has been struggling for a while, this would be an enormous stroke of good fortune. Mel Tucker abruptly quit the Buffs in February 2020.

Karl Dorrell was hired by the team when they searched for a team player. The Buffs had a successful debut campaign.

However, in 2021, particularly this season, they went worse. After the squad got out to a 0-5 start, George dismissed Dorrell and temporarily replaced him with Mike Sanford.

But a resolution appears doable. The agreement makes Sanders the 28th full-time coach at CU. The most well-known and anticipated hire may be Sanders.

A formal announcement is anticipated for late Saturday or early Sunday as the deal's specifics are ironed out.

But one thing is certain: everyone will be staring towards Boulder and Prime Watch will be on after Saturday's game between Jackson State and Boulder is over.
