About this listen

On the latest episode of Locked On Buffs, host Kevin Borba broke down the viral moment of Deion Sanders yelling at five-star quarterback commit Julian Lewis during a Colorado practice. Borba emphasized that the intense exchange wasn't personal but reflected Coach Prime's demanding leadership style. He explained that Sanders expects accountability and toughness, even from top recruits. Borba noted this moment highlights the culture Sanders is instilling in Boulder—one that prioritizes mental fortitude and high standards. He also suggested Lewis' reaction could influence his future decision, showing how pressure and coaching style factor into elite recruit commitments. Borba also praised Deion Sanders for allowing lesser-used Colorado players to get valuable scrimmage reps to build game film.

Borba highlighted the move as both selfless and strategic, noting that it gives backups and scout team players a chance to showcase their skills for potential transfer opportunities or future depth roles. He emphasized that Coach Prime is committed to helping his players succeed beyond Boulder, even if they’re not regular contributors. Borba called it a player-first approach that aligns with Sanders' message of development, opportunity, and exposure—an important gesture in today’s transfer-heavy college football landscape.
