Video shows Colorado head coach Deion Sanders joking with team over concert attendance rumors image

Colorado head coach Deion Sanders wasn’t quite ready to let this one go. 

One week after a report from Athlon Sports suggested Sanders had forced his team to attend a concert where his son, Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders, opened for Lil Wayne following Colorado’s spring game, Sanders joked about it again on a video posted by Well Off Media — the YouTube channel run by one of his other sons, Deion Sanders Jr. 

"I'm still mad at y'all who didn't go watch Shedeur," Sanders joked. "How stupid was that? Good lord."

Sanders previously addressed the rumors in a tweet from his official X account. 

Colorado went 1-11 in 2022 and went 4-8 in Deion Sanders’ first season following a 3-0 start. The Buffaloes open the season on Aug. 29 at home against North Dakota State.
