Deion Sanders Beefs It Up After Making a Massive Claim for Shedeur Sanders' NFL Future

Colorado could be on the way to create arguably the best college football program in NCAA history, courtesy of Deion Sanders. He has completely changed the fate of the Buffs with his incredible leadership and unparalleled coaching style which is so impressive that now the No. 1 QB recruit of the class of 2025 plans to visit Boulder.

Shedeur has proven to be an exceptional quarterback for the Buffs with his 4TD 510-yard debut. His massive success as a leader and as a player has certainly brought a lot of eyes to Colorado, from star recruits and Belleville High School’s Bryce Underwood is one of them.

High School QB Talent Shows Interest In Deion Sanders’ Program

Bryce is a QB phenomenon in the making. At just 15 years of age, the 6-foot-3, 205 lbs beast, is taking over as a dominant player in High School. According to 247Sports, Underwood is a five-star recruit for the class of 2025. Hailing from Belleville, Michigan, he aims to play for Deion Sanders at Boulder.

“It was very exciting to have my first conversation [with Deion Sanders],” Underwood told 247Sports. “It was good to have my first conversation with him. Just him letting me know he wanted me there and to lead them to a national championship was exciting to hear.”

Underwood as it appears is pretty serious about CU. Bryce and his family also tried to attend Colorado’s game against Nebraska which couldn’t happen. However, the Underwoods are set to touchdown at Boulder to attend the game against USC on 30th September. There is no doubt that a place in Coach Prime’s program is a big win for any player, but for Bryce, it could mean a sure-shot stairway to the NFL.

Coach Prime Effect Brings Bryce Underwood To CU

Not just Bryce but his father Jaguan too is a big fan of Deion Sanders. In his interview with 247sports, his father talked about how much he looked up to Prime in his days in the NFL. “Prime is a legend,” said Bryce’s father, Jaquan Underwood. “When I was a kid I wanted to be like Prime. I played corner. Having that guy on the other end talking to my son, it was surreal.”

Not only that, but he honestly stated that they “really like Colorado.” Selecting candidates like Bryce has been one of the biggest priorities for Prime. Furthermore, it appears Shedeur Sanders is already welcoming him to CU as both star QBs follow each other on Instagram.
