Shedeur Sanders and Co. wrapped up their much-awaited spring game with heavy rain as the backdrop on Saturday, with 28,000+ fans in attendance. He finished the game with 166 yards and a touchdown, completing 10 of his 14 pass attempts. “Overall, it was a good performance,” said Shedeur Sanders, who felt optimistic and had a positive vibe around him. 

Saturday’s spring game was played without some key players from the 2023 roster who entered the portal before the spring weekend. The Colorado Buffaloes lost over 20 players in the portal since it opened on April 18. And after the game’s conclusion, nothing stopped the Buffs QB from delivering his raw opinion on the former players who hit the portal.

Shedeur Sanders calls the transferring players ‘negative energy’

Shedeur Sanders and his teammates wrapped up their much-awaited spring game, and during the post-game press conference, the Buffs quarterback gave his opinions on how they would move forward for the season. Despite the spring portal exodus, the 22-year-old remained resilient, telling BuffsTV on YouTube, “I feel like we got all the negative energy out the building so now, it’s just a positive vibe.” 

Among the players who left for the spring transfer portal, Cormani McClain and Dylan Edwards were the biggest surprises in the minds of both players and fans. McClain was a 5-star prospect who flipped from Miami to join Deion Sanders in Colorado. Meanwhile, Dylan Edwards was Coach Prime’s “special kid” whom he had coached since he was six and whom the HC had handpicked as a recruit. But after just one season with the Buffs, they decided the program wasn’t for them and it didn’t sit well with Shedeur Sanders, who is all about focused and dedicated players to win. And Deion Sanders takes the same stance.

Deion Sanders remains confident amidst transfer exodus

The mass of players leaving Colorado has put people in a state of speculation as to whether the future of Deion Sanders in Boulder can be expected. Suppositions have emerged that the 56-year-old HC might follow his sons to the NFL in 2025. But Coach Prime shuts down all speculations in his post-game speech, saying, “I lead my kids. I don’t follow my kids. So, I do not plan on following my kids to the NFL.”

Deion Sanders, as he has previously admitted countless times, expressed his unwavering commitment and love for Colorado. He reassured the fans, saying, “I have work to do here… I’m serious, I absolutely love it here, man.” This steadfast dedication to the team and the program should instill confidence in the fans, even as the team faces the departure of key players in the future.
