The arrival of Jordan Seaton at the Colorado Buffaloes was courtesy of head coach Deion Sanders. "Coach Prime" secured the services of the coveted five-star offensive tackle in December 2023, and the addition fortifies the team's offensive line.

A prospect from the IMG Academy, Seaton expressed his admiration for Sanders' direct and honest approach during the recruitment process. Unlike other coaches, Deion Sanders, who has a net worth of $45 million per Celebrity Net Worth, didn't sugarcoat his feedback but instead offered specific areas for the OT’s improvement.

“He told me I need to bend my hips a little bit more, so I’m like, 'I can work with that.' Right now, you’re trying to elevate me, and I’m not even here.

“You’re invested in me and just want me to win, and I haven’t even come to your school yet. So that kind of stood out to me the most.”

Fans were moved by Seaton's take on Sanders' methodology and his plans to succeed at Colorado. Let's have a look at what some of them had to say:
