Deion Sanders recently reflected on the changing landscape of college athletics and how it has impacted the experience of players like Travis Hunter and his son

Deion Sanders shared his expertise on college sports on the “Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast,” and how student-athletes have been impacted by how much athletics have changed in the past couple of years.

While the football players may have missed out on the classroom experience, they still managed to perform well academically. Colorado director of player personnel James Cheney revealed that the Buffaloes football team earned a cumulative GPA of 3.0 under Sanders, the first time in program history they achieved that mark.

It started as a joke. In March of 2024, in our company Slack room, I laughed about how the “most Cowboys thing possible” would be for Jerry Jones to move on from Mike McCarthy after the season, hire Deion Sanders, and find a way to draft Shedeur Sanders as their starting QB.
