The arrivals of head coach Deion “Coach Prime” Sanders and players Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter in Boulder, Colorado, brought about an unprecedented wave of attention and excitement for the Colorado Buffaloes football program.
However, while Coach Prime has expressed his intent to return to the Buffs next year, Shedeur Sanders and Hunter will be off to the NFL. While it will be hard to find a singular player who can replicate the Heisman winner in Hunter’s two-way brilliance, it appears Colorado has found its successor to the younger Sanders at the quarterback position.
