Essentially Sports' Arunima Guchhait wondered if Coach Prime's ex, Tracey Edmonds, was taking a shot at the Colorado football head coach with a New Year's message on Instagram; on in which she wrote that 2023 opеnеd her еyеs to what she doesn't nееd to bring with her in 2024 and that she only needs to have people that reciprocate the uplifting she does.

"Could this hint at hеr rеcеnt split with Coach Primе after an 11-yеar journеy togеthеr? Edmonds’ cryptic post highlighted thе importancе of lеaving bеhind what 'doеsn’t sеrvе us and wеlcoming only thosе who rеciprocatе positivity,'" Guchhait prefaced before saying, "It sееms likе a confеssion wrappеd in Nеw Yеar’s wisdom!"

Edmonds had previously said that she was prioritizing her family moving forward, and to feel as though she is being properly respected.

“I want to clarify that it was my decision to end the relationship, despite any different narratives being presented,” Edmonds posted on Instagram, according to PEOPLE Magazine via The New York Post. “I’ve chosen to prioritize myself and my family, moving forward towards a future where I am valued, treated with honesty, and free to embrace the happiness and respect I deserve."

Coach Prime hinted at personal troubles after Colorado football Week 12 loss to Wazzu

After Wazzu destroyed Colorado 56-14 in what turned out to be Shedeur Sanders' last game of the season, Coach Prime hinted at troubles in his personal life amidst a six-game losing streak to end the season.

“This is the toughest stretch of probably my life,” Sanders said (h/t Clarion Ledger). “I’m sorry, guys. My head is throbbing. We’re still trying to figure out our identity, trying to figure out who we are in turbulent times. And I still don’t know. After all these weeks, I still don’t know.”

Evidently, a host of factors led to the downfall of what was a once-promising 2023 season at the halfway point.
