Deion Sanders made the Colorado Buffaloes a hot topic in the college football world, but it doesn't sound like he has much of a desire to coach in the NFL.
Although the last few weeks have been a struggle for Deion Sanders and his Colorado squad, it's no question he put the Buffaloes back on the map. After leading Jackson State to back-to-back SWAC championship games, he bolted for Colorado last year, and plenty doubted what he could do. Well, in his first game, he beat TCU, who played in last year's national championship, on the road, en route to a 3-0 start.
Colorado, though, has lost five of its last six games, so the magic has lost a bit of its luster — although their four wins are much more than their lone one was last season. Sanders' has achieved several of his coaching goals — but he says going to the NFL isn't one of them. In fact, in speaking with Dan Patrick, he admitted that doesn't think he'd have much success coaching in the pros. 'I don't think I'm built for the NFL,' he said.
don't know. I haven't thought about it. I'm trying to win a game — I haven't thought down the street that far. I haven't thought like that,' he said. Colorado hosts No. 21 Arizona this week, as they look to snap a three-game losing streak.
