BOULDER, Colo. (AP) — The rain and the cold couldn’t dampen the demeanor of Deion Sanders.
The cowboy hat-wearing coach of the Colorado Buffaloes was in a feel-good mood during the spring game Saturday at Folsom Field.
Before the game, he awarded a scholarship to a hard-working running back. Before kickoff, he pledged a bowl game to a 99-year-old super-fan in the stands. And before retreating out of the rain, he watched some new transfer-portal additions step up and saw a receiver-turned-cornerback-turned-tailback shine.
On top of it all, his QB son, Shedeur, looked sharp in front of a respectable crowd given the weather.
“We already know what we had,” Deion Sanders said. “But it was a good display of talent, I believe.”
Running back Charlie Offerdahl had a day he won’t soon forget, even if he didn’t play a snap due to an intestinal ailment. In the locker room before the game, Sanders gathered the team together, along with Offerdahl’s family, and presented the junior with a scholarship.
