The Colorado Buffaloes are back from the Spring Break and so is the grind. Coach Prime is back marshaling his boys to the Black and Gold weekend festivities that are set to happen this April end. Leading up to the spring game, the CU Buffs players are being grilled on a day-to-day basis by Deion Sanders as seen on his son’s channel Well Off Media regularly.

However, things took a dramatic turn today when Coach Prime read out an e-mail from a college professor about his student-athletes. In the message to Sanders, the professor was seen expressing his concern and pain caused by the student athletes’ unwillingness to attend classes.
The professor noted that the semester has been extremely tough on him because students are barely showing up to the online classes. Even when they do, they don’t seem to be present mentally. They are just there to be there. This has hurt the professor a lot and he called it the most “disrespected” he has felt in his 10 years of teaching.
“This semester has been extremely challenging for me as a professor. I have never felt so disrespected in my 10 years of teaching. Students do not follow even minimally and it slows down my class so much that they make it clear that they don’t want to be here and they have very little personal responsibility making me responsible for their grave.”
“I’m a little frustrated. I’m a little angry right now because we in this new collective in a NIL state of mind, we have youngsters who are all in on one side of the game. 90% % or 95% of your roster ain’t going pro. So as coaches, we have to emphasize education. We have to emphasize life. We have to emphasize the next step, the next elevation. If it doesn’t work in the game, come in. So today was not wonderful, but I’d be damned if I allow these kids to get out of here without something because this life they getting ready to live, you got to win with your mind not your athleticism.”
