When your coach is one of the greatest athletes of all-time who also just so happens to be an incredible talker, a fashion star and one of the most famous people in the country, he can draw you a lot of attention.
It’s no shock to anyone the level of attention Deion Sanders has brought to the Colorado Buffaloes to this point, with Hall of Famer after Hall of Famer visiting his team and rap stars, NFL stars and leaders visiting campus.
As Sanders made his coaching debut in black and gold on Saturday his son broke school records and the Buffs got their first win against an opponent ranked so highly since 2009. CU stunned the world in beating No. 17 TCU 45-42 in a thrilling back-and-forth shootout. Throughout the game legends like Snoop Dogg, Patrick Mahomes and more posted along with the action on the field in Fort Worth and after the buzzer sounded even more hit social media.
Here were the best shoutouts for the Buffs on Saturday.
Crazy to see what Deion and Colorado has done already! 💪🏽💪🏽

It cannot be overstated what Deion Sanders did today.
To turn the whole Colorado program around from what it was last season to today beating a team that played in the National Championship last season…

It’s another to actually do it.Wow.
