Deion Sanders and the rest of the Colorado Buffaloes were in the midst of a social media scrap last week as the head coach faced criticism for handling his roster overhaul.Sanders wrote on X about the critics and the hate people get and clapped back at a fan who told him to tell his son, Shedeur, to stop acting like he’s the “coldest out here” amid a 4-8 season. Sanders said that Shedeur will be a top-five draft and wondered where the fan’s son was going.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMCoach Prime then explained away his remarks.”I gotta do better on that and not ride with it, but I was bored,” he said on “Thee Pregame Show.” “I was bored, and I didn’t say nothing hurtful.

I think that was taken sideways or something else.”The war of words definitely didn’t shine the program in the most positive of lights.It may have also hurt Shedeur Sanders’ draft odds — at least for the time being.Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
