Deion Sanders' eldest son Bucky comically roasts Arkansas' allegedly edited TD clip: "Actually pretty funny"
Colorado coach Deion Sander's eldest son, Deion Sanders Jr., aka Bucky, has cut a clear niche for himself as one of the best content creators in college sports. Ever since the trio, including his brothers Shilo and Shedeur Sanders, arrived in Boulder, they have got a boost in terms of social media presence.
Sanders Jr. is in charge of the social media management team for the Buffs. He is using his Well Off Media company to show behind-the-scenes clips from everyday life on the program and promote them to fans and recruits alike.
On Wednesday, the Buffs' official social media channel posted a clip on X from the training of a pass made by quarterback Shedeur to wide receiver LaJohntay Wester for a touchdown.
Except, hawkeyed fans on X surmised that the clips were two different videos spliced together to make for a spectacular pass. Colorado's social media team captioned the clip:
"Darts only."
Various teams had fun with the conspiracy theory, with the Arkansas Razorbacks posting two different clips from their training sessions with the same caption.
Bucky was a good sport on X, quote-posting the Razorbacks' cheeky clip and captioning it with the words:
"lol that’s actually pretty funny. That’s some good stuff right there," Bucky tweeted.
Colorado later posted the two clips from the pass on X to assure fans that, indeed, quarterback Shedeur Sanders had completed the pass for a touchdown.
Bucky reveals future plans after brothers depart
Deion Sanders Jr. has been at the forefront of documenting the rise of Colorado as a relevant force in college football and magnifying the Deion Sanders effect.
His brothers, Shilo and Shedeur Sanders, will depart for the NFL next year. While his father has stated that his long-term future is in Boulder, his eldest son provided an update on his future plans during an episode of his brother's 2 Legendary podcast.
"Just building a team, expanding, you know, the brand because, you know, next year, you don’t know what it’s going to look like and actually saving some of that money because you just don’t know how long everything’s going to last," Bucky said.
“No, expand a team so like say, if I do go somewhere or have other things going on, if I do pop up on one of y’all when y’all get drafted or something, it’s like okay, cool. Somebody is still here to fulfill daddy’s page and still have the daily Colorado post on there."
Bucky has built his brand from the ground in the cut-throat world of high-tech social media management and will likely fare well without his brothers.
