After Losing Fans' Faith, Deion Sanders Will Find Solace in Nick Saban's Uplifting Comments on CU Buffs

Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes Have Struggled in 2023

Since taking over the program in 2023, Deion Sanders has struggled to turn around the Colorado Buffaloes. The team has finished 0-5 in conference play and has yet to win a game at Folsom Field.

This has led to some fans losing faith in Sanders' ability to lead the program back to prominence.

Nick Saban Offers Encouraging Words to Deion Sanders

However, Sanders can take solace in the fact he has the support of one of the most successful coaches in college football history.

In a recent interview, Nick Saban spoke highly of Sanders and his work at Colorado. Saban said that he believes Sanders is a "great coach" and that he is "going to do a great job" at Colorado.

Saban's Comments Should Provide Sanders with Motivation

Saban's comments should provide Sanders with some much-needed motivation as he enters the final stretch of the 2023 season.

The Buffaloes have a tough schedule remaining, but they have a chance to finish the season on a strong note with a bowl game berth still within reach.

Saban's Comments Are A Reminder That Sanders Is Not Alone

Saban's comments are also a reminder that Sanders is not alone in his struggles at Colorado.

This year’s results are not an indictment of Sanders as a coach or his ability to build a successful program in Boulder. Even Saban, one of the greatest to ever coach the game, went just 5-6 in his first year at Alabama in 2007.
