WATCH: Deion Sanders facilitates intense swimming pool training session for Colorado Buffaloes
Colorado head coach Deion Sanders isn't leaving anything to chance this time. After a humbling 4-8 season in his first year at Boulder, Coach Prime is hell-bent on proving his haters wrong, and he's putting his team through intense training sessions to prepare them for a challenging 2024 college football season.
In an Instagram story uploaded by Coach Prime's eldest son, Deion Sanders Jr., Colorado athletes can be seen giving their best while training in the swimming pool. The sides of the swimming pool are occupied by athletes doing pushups and pullups, while some of them are using the gym cycles on the upper deck.
The Colorado Buffaloes have bolstered their roster in the transfer portal, especially strengthening their offensive line to protect star quarterback Shedeur Sanders, who was sacked 52 times in the 2023 CFB season. The Buffs open their season at Folsom Field on August 30 against the North Dakota State Bison.
