In order to be a great college football coach, you have to be a great human being and leader. For Colorado head football coach Deion Sanders, he appears to be all that, especially when it comes to relationships.
Deion Sanders Preaches Support in Relationships
After Sanders’s ex-girlfriend, Tracey Edmonds, posted on social media about the kinds of qualities that the right partner should possess in terms of relationships, Sanders agreed.
Here is what he posted on his Instagram:
“As a man…you should either have a supportive woman by your side or no woman at all. There’s no third option.”

Despite the two not being together anymore, they seem to be in agreement on what it takes to make a relationship work.
Sanders is showing his ability to make relationships work as a coach in college football.
At the very least, the Colorado Buffaloes are in the best place that they have been in decades.
Sanders Shows His Ability to Work Well with Coaches and Players
Part of the reason why Sanders was able to take the Buffaloes from 4-8 to 9-4 in a span of one offseason is because of how he is able to recruit and work well with those around him.
He has been able to attract all kinds of talent in this new age of college football where NIL is king.
His recruiting job has led to great production on the field, which is thanks in large part to the play of his son, future NFL quarterback Shedeur Sanders, and Heisman-winning two-way player Travis Hunter.

While those two are headed to the NFL, Sanders will have to replace those guys this year.
He won’t be alone in that search, seeing as he has a number of helpful former NFL teammates and colleagues on staff who know talent.
Warren Sapp, Marshall Faulk, and Pat Shurmur are just some of the staff members with whom Sanders has a strong history.
After the Buffs’ tremendous turnaround season, they will be considered a true wildcard team in the Big 12, with title hopes on the horizon in 2025.
