"I thought we were cool": Coach Prime hilariously calls out Matt Leinart after his son's major decision

Fox's "Big Noon Kickoff" pregame show was at Texas Tech University ahead of the Week 11 game between the No. 21 Colorado Buffaloes and Texas Tech Red Raiders. While the panel was discussing the game at hand, we also saw a little bit of a glimpse into the future.

Colorado Buffaloes coach Deion Sanders was a guest on Big Noon Kickoff show and in the interview with analyst Matt Leinart, he jokingly brought up how Leinart's son, Cole, committed to the SMU Mustangs instead of joining the Buffaloes.

"I'm mad at you, you didn't even consider me for your son, and I thought we were cool like that... and you know I'm not hard to find."

Here's the full exchange.

Cole Leinart announced on his social media account he has committed to the SMU Mustangs on Nov. 6. It will be interesting if this exchange between two friends on national television will re-open the recruitment process for the Class of 2026 quarterback.

According to 247Sports, the following schools offered a scholarship to Cole Leinart:

SMU Mustangs
Arizona Wildcats
Arkansas Razorbacks
Colorado Buffaloes
Colorado State Rams
Duke Blue Devils
Georgia Southern Eagles
Incarnate Word Cardinals
Maryland Terrapins
Pittsburgh Panthers
San Jose State Spartans
UNLV Rebels
Utah Utes

Will Colorado win this week?

Before the potential recruitment of Leinart, the Buffaloes have to play on the road against Texas Tech. The Buffaloes (6-2, 4-1 Big 12) are listed as a 4.5-point road favorite for this game. The Red Raiders (6-3, 4-2) have been playing very well but with the off week for the Buffs, Texas Tech will have its hand full against a team that had some time to get healthy.

Both Shedeur Sanders and Behren Morton have been playing well under center and the Red Raiders are going to depend on running back Tahj Brooks to take control. However, the Buffs have been an excellent defensive team as they are only giving up 22.0 points per game, which is tied for 43rd in college football.
