Deion Sanders ends rough Colorado Buffaloes spring football practice early

With the Buffs just days away from the spring game, Deion Sanders blew the whistle on a sluggish session and told the team to hang it up. No more reps. No more drills. Just conditioning and a walk-through.

Let that sink in — conditioning, in mid-April, because the effort wasn’t there.

“This is the worst practice I’ve ever seen here,” Sanders told the team, as caught on Well Off Media. And honestly? You could feel it through the screen. Guys weren’t finishing plays. Nobody looked locked in. This wasn’t the hungry, chip-on-their-shoulder squad that torched Utah 49–24 or blanked Oklahoma State 52–0 to close the 2024 season.

With Shedeur, Travis, and Cam’Ron off to the NFL, we’re looking at a locker room in transition. New leaders like Jordan Seaton and Arden Walker are stepping up, but the learning curve is steep — and Tuesday was a wake-up call.

Warren Sapp and Marshall Faulk were on hand and visibly disappointed. If those two Hall of Famers think your D-line is a mess, it probably is.

Still, this kind of adversity in April is exactly when you want it. Let it humble you now, so it doesn’t break you in September when Georgia Tech rolls into Boulder.
