Despite the fact that Deion Sanders has stated in several public appearances that he is content with the arrangement, the CU icon has been very clear about his viewpoint. “That’s what coaches say,” he went on to remark. “They feel it in the moment until someone new comes to them and says, ‘We’re going to bet the whole farm on you.'” “They feel it in the moment until someone new comes to them and says, “We’re going to wager the whole farm on you.”
After that, he went on to say that Coach Prime is deserving of a substantial deal. He stated, “I’m a big advocate of putting a new deal in front of him,” and explained that this was his position. “It’s a big thing. It will probably be a deal of $166 million over ten years to keep him here, which will make the buyout impossible. Similar to a buyout for $100 million in terms of numbers.” The figures are very much warranted considering what the NFL icon has accomplished for the community in a span of just three weeks with a roster comprised entirely of newly recruited players.If Deion Sanders is looking for a new agent, Jeremy Bloom, a former wide receiver for Colorado, would be willing to offer his services.
In an interview with TMZ Sports, Bloom suggested that the Buffaloes offer Coach Prime a contract extension of ten years and $166 million in order to prevent him from perhaps taking a job with one of their competitors.
Bloom provided the following explanation: “You have to put that in front of him.” “Because as of right now, the buyout is simply insufficient. ” Any team can gather together, find a large number of boosters, buy him out, and give him some sort of long-term deal.
When Colorado hired Sanders in December of 2022, he immediately signed a deal that was worth $29.5 million over the course of five years. The following information was revealed by Brian Howell of BuffZone and the Boulder Daily Camera on the buyout terms for Deion in the event that he opted to quit the program:
When compared to other college coaches, Georgia’s Kirby Smart has the largest contract buyout among all of them at $91 million. Jimbo Fisher of Texas A&M is in second place with $77 million, followed by Mel Tucker of Michigan State with $76 million, Brian Kelly of LSU with $68 million, Dabo Swinney of Clemson with $68 million, and James Franklin of Penn State with the same amount.
Nick Saban, the head coach of the Alabama Crimson Tide football team, is reportedly the highest-paid college football coach with a salary of $11.7 million per season, as reported by Amanda Christovich of Front Office Sports.
An increase in Sanders’ salary to $16.6 million per season would have a huge impact on the pay scale for college coaches, but it’s difficult to argue that he wouldn’t be worth the investment for Colorado if the salary were raised to that level.
This year, the Buffaloes have been the most talked about team in college football thanks to the presence of Sanders and the speed with which he has turned around the program. They haven’t started a season 3-0 since 2020, and they already have two more wins than they did for the entirety of last year’s campaign (1-11).
A spokesperson for the University of Colorado, Steve Hurlbert, stated earlier this week to Olivia Doak of the Daily Camera that Sanders had been worth $90.55 million in media coverage for the football team since the beginning of the season.
This season, programs of College Gameday on ESPN and Big Noon Kickoff on Fox have both been broadcast from the University of Colorado’s campus.
Even though it began at 10 p.m. ET and concluded at 2:15 a.m. ET, ESPN reported that the game between Colorado State and Colorado was the fifth-most watched game in the history of the network with an average of 9.3 million people. This was despite the fact that the game started at 10 p.m. ET.
On Saturday, the Buffaloes will travel to No. 10 Oregon in the hopes of improving to 4-0 on the season. If Sanders is successful in guiding his team to a victory on the road against a conference opponent who is ranked in the top 10 of the Associated Press Top 25 poll, he will likely be offered the $166 million contract when the plane lands back in Boulder the following day.
The fact that Deion Sanders has shared a piece of his heritage with the people of Colorado is creating a ripple effect that is affecting everyone. As a result of the community receiving national exposure, CU legend Jeremy Bloom has proposed that the university offer Coach Prime a mammoth contract worth a total of $166,000,000 in order to encourage him to remain in Boulder. Particularly at this point in time when every school is keeping a close eye on him.
Jeremy Bloom, a legend at the University of Colorado and a member of the National Ski Hall of Fame, provided his candid opinion on Deion Sanders and what he brings to the table during an interview with TMZ. Bloom also played wide receiver in the National Football League. Not only has he brought millions of dollars’ worth of commerce to the community as well as an incredible amount of attention, but he has also turned around a 1-11 Colorado club since being there.
As a result of the Prime Effect being in full effect, a number of schools apparently have their sights set on recruiting Coach Prime. As of present, Prime is on a $29,500,000 five-year contract which is quite modest considering the brand of his likeness. The former Colorado standout receiver stated that the buyout offered at this time is insufficient and “just too small.” “Any team can get together, get a bunch of boosters, buy him out, and give him some sort of long-term deal,” the analyst said.
When it comes to Coach Prime, the entire community realized for themselves that the buzz is always justified. Not only is he capable of single-handedly altering the course of a football team’s season, but he can also completely transform the landscape of college football in the span of just one week. Therefore, in response to the question of whether the Billionaires of the Community and the University of Colorado are eager to assist, he gave a very upbeat and positive answer.
Bloom stated, “We’ve got plenty of supporters here,” and he was right. “We have so many supporters in Colorado who went to the University of Colorado, and they are so happy to see our university being talked about every single day on TV. We appreciate all of the support that you have given us.” Even for someone who could care less about football, this event is bigger than football. We are in a position to pay.”
