Inside Deion Sanders’ first 4-star flip to Colorado: ‘Nobody is safe’
New York TimesWhen four-star running back Dylan Edwards of Derby High decommitted from Notre Dame shortly after reporting a Colorado offer from the freshly hired Deion Sanders, the general assumption was this is how quickly Prime Time works. Coach Deion’s plan here is worth coming to look at, and recruits are going to want to do that.” Sanders immediately became a legitimate Power 5 coaching candidate the second he convinced Travis Hunter to sign with Jackson State. “When you go to the Power 5 and you have those resources to do what you need to do, it’s a no-brainer when that team is coached by Deion,” Edwards said. And so that’s what he said, ‘I’ll put the ball in your hands for you to be great and I want you to do it with me.’ If you know, he’s Deion Sanders. That’s what you have to do.” Edwards does take pride in being the first blue-chip prospect to join Sanders’ Colorado squad.
