Deion Sanders Fails to Remember Names of His Own Key Players & Colorado Alum is Livid About It

Colorado finally had something to celebrate after its 27-24 overtime win over Kansas State on October 31. But Deion Sanders sparked another controversy when he struggled to recall his own running backs’ names during a press conference. For a coach already under scrutiny, the remark gave frustrated fans fresh ammunition. Running back Richard Young had just delivered his best performance of the season, rushing for 120 yards and two touchdowns on 24 carries. When asked why Young hadn’t received more opportunities earlier, Sanders offered an unusual explanation.
