Coach Prime stresses the importance of fundamental football with Buffs
Before Colorado's game against Texas Tech, Coach Deion Sanders gathered his team and showed them a graphic. NFL practice squad players make between $12,500 and $21,300 weekly. Using this as motivation, Sanders aimed to instill in his players the importance of hard work, consistency, and commitment, particularly emphasizing the role of scout team players.
"Some guys are paying to be here, and it doesn't make sense to us," Sanders said via Well Off Media, highlighting the value each player adds to the team, regardless of their position. "Your scout teams are very, very important." He emphasized that everyone on the field, even those practicing behind the scenes, plays a critical role in the team's success.
The message was clear for the Buffs. There's no need for applause for completing fundamental tasks like blocking, hitting a hole, covering, or catching. "That's what you're supposed to do," Sanders asserted. "And if you do it well, you can be one of these guys. That's a lot of money.". Quarterback Shedeur Sanders was electric, completing 25 of 30 passes for 323 yards, including two touchdowns to standout receiver Travis Hunter.
