No one can relate more to flexing sunglasses in college football than Colorado Buffaloes coach Deion Sanders. However, when he faces Georgia Tech for the 2025 season opener, he will use another pair of flexing sunglass.
Yellowjackets coach Brent Key was asked on Wednesday if he will have something to cover his eyes like Deion does. Key, amused by the question, went on to flex his collection a little.
"I have one pair of nice sunglasses," Key said. "Okay, and I realized about a month ago that I've had that one pair for 12 years, and I probably needed to buy a new one because they were all crooked on my head. They were like, 'You can wear them with something nice, I guess,' but then I've got about 10 pairs of Costas."

In 2025, Key will enter his fourth season with the Yellowjackets. Key has led Georgia Tech to similar records (7-6) in the last two seasons. The only difference is that he led the Yellowjackets to a win in the 2023 Union Home Mortgage Gasparilla Bowl against the UCF Knights. Last season, the Yellowjackets lost the 2024 Birmingham Bowl against the Vanderbilt Commodores.
Meanwhile, Deion Sanders turned around the Buffaloes from a 1-11 season in 2022 to 4-8 in 2023 and 9-4 in 2024. The Buffs played their first bowl game since 2020 but lost to the BYU Cougars in the Alamo Bowl.
