“Almost 100 attempts in 10 qtrs with 0 turnovers. #TrustGod #KeepWorking.” On November 23rd, Lewis’ father, Carlton Lewis, took to X to celebrate his performance. In those 10 quarters, Julian Lewis threw for 428 yards and three touchdowns, all without any interceptions or fumbles. His calm, mistake-free play made the offense more organized and efficient. Fans noticed a big difference in how the team played, and it gave everyone hope for the future. Yet with the team still searching for consistent results, speculation about his future began to grow. But his family has made it clear that he is staying put.

Even after a tough loss to Arizona State, Julian Lewis confirmed his commitment: “I’m a Buff through and through. All my guys are here. I don’t see any reason to leave.”

Even after the Buffaloes lost to Arizona State, Julian Lewis made it clear he was staying with the team. He said, “I’m a Buff through and through. All my guys are here. I don’t see any reason to leave.”

His commitment would have a domino effect. If he were to leave, Colorado might be looking at another two to three years of rebuilding. With Julian on board, you can expect many players, current and future, to stick with him. The Buffs’ 2025 campaign might be technically over already, but this commitment is absolutely massive for Coach Prime and the entire program.

Having their most important player locked in sends a simple message to other recruits and potential transfers. Now, the staff can finally shift their focus to building the roster around Lewis, especially by bringing in more offensive linemen and offensive playmakers to fully unleash his talent. This stability gives Colorado something they haven’t had in many years: a foundation it can actually build on.

Has Deion Sanders hit his limit?

After Colorado’s tough 42-17 loss to Arizona State, Coach Deion Sanders made it clear that his frustration was aimed at his own team. Despite a respectful handshake with ASU’s head coach, Kenny Dillingham, after the game, Sanders wasn’t holding back in his post-game comments.

He said, “I’ll let you guys do that…I’m happy for him… I’m not gonna shower the other team with roses when we were right there in the game. We shot ourselves in the foot.” Sanders was clearly upset that his team couldn’t finish strong, especially after being only four points down in the final quarter, but ultimately getting outscored 21-0.

That fumble seemed to seal the loss and was a big reason for the blowout in the final minutes.

The loss and the way things ended left many wondering about the future of Coach Prime’s program. With a disappointing 3-8 record and the lowest attendance at Folsom Field since 2022. Some fans are starting to question if expectations for Colorado are starting to fade. The loss to ASU and Sanders’ frustration have led to speculation about whether the excitement around his “Coach Prime” era is beginning to wear off. Is the magic of his leadership starting to fade, or is this just a tough stretch in an ongoing rebuilding process? Only time will tell.
