But Shedeur remained undeterred: “All the other kids were going big you know power five and they went to Big 6A Texas 6A schools and stuff I don’t see those same kids around I don’t see them excelling in their programs and whatever they’re do doing. So I always been against the odds like in different ways.” This opens up the discussion about Coach Prime’s aspirations for his son in detail.
