First-year Colorado Buffaloes head coach Deion Sanders<\/u><\/a> has not shied away from the spotlight in his first two months in Boulder, Colorado.<\/p>\n

The Buffs have gone from a college football afterthought<\/u><\/a> to a team on the rise with the arrival of “Prime Time.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

The football program has fallen on hard times over the past several years, firing head coach Karl <\/u><\/a>Dorrell<\/u> <\/a>after an 0-5 start to the 2022 season and ending the year at 1-11.\u00a0<\/p>\n

DEION SANDERS LOOKS FOR \u2018DUAL PARENT\u2019 HOMES IN QB RECRUITS, \u2018SINGLE MAMA\u2019 HOUSEHOLDS IN DEFENSIVE LINEMEN<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

However, Sanders\u2019 arrival has brought energy to a program that has not won more than five games in a season since 2016.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With that energy comes expectations for the players in Sanders\u2019 locker room. <\/p>\n

“It’s a whole different level of expectation around here, and you got to be able to play the game,” Sanders told ESPN on Friday. “So a certain level that might have been welcome, that level is no longer welcomed here. It’s a whole different game now.”<\/p>\n

Sanders has brought with him a number of players from Jackson State, including five-star cornerback Travis Hunter<\/u><\/a> and quarterback Shedeur Sanders, Sanders\u2019 son.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Colorado got a whopping 24 commits via the transfer portal \u2013 good for a top-five transfer portal class \u2013 and pulled in the 21st-ranked class on National Signing Day.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“He\u2019s brought a lot of energy and passion to this program again,” Colorado athletic director Rick George said on Signing Day. “It\u2019s what we desperately needed.”<\/p>\n

While Sanders is certainly infusing the Colorado roster with talent, it will still be an uphill battle for the Buffaloes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Colorado kicks off the 2023 college football season against national runner-up TCU<\/u><\/a>, before taking on Nebraska in their non-conference schedule.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The start to their Pac-12 slate is brutal, as the Buffs will head to Oregon<\/u><\/a> before welcoming USC to Boulder.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, Sanders plans on winning right away.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We will not settle for mediocrity,” Sanders said. “It is what it is. You’re going to get on this program, or you’re going to get up out of here. We plan on winning, and we don’t have time to procrastinate.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
