Deion Sanders has transformed the No. 16-ranked Colorado Buffaloes (8-2, 6-1) this season from a struggling team into one that could win the Big 12 conference and earn a spot in the College Football Playoff.

Sanders did the same when he was in charge of Jackson State, which, like Colorado, had his sons Shedeur and Shilo Sanders on the roster.

However, his sons will no longer be with the Buffaloes next season, as they are expected to be in the NFL.

This has led to rumors that Deion Sanders will also leave the Buffaloes and potentially move to the Dallas Cowboys, a team that could get Shedeur Sanders next season.

The future of Coach Prime has been a central talking point in sports this week.

On Wednesday, former NFL player LaVar Arrington gave his verdict on what Deion Sanders should do:

"It would be interesting to see what life without Shedeur would be for Prime," Arrington said. "He may be a better coach without his kids on the team. I'd like to see that."

College football fans have never seen Sanders coach a team that does not have his kids on it.

Playing with his children has allowed him to use players he knows very well to his advantage.

However, since they won't be involved in college football next season, Deion Sanders is gearing up to possibly coach his first season without his kids on the team.

Deion Sanders has already been able to bring in a suitable replacement for quarterback Shedeur Sanders.

Four-star prospect Julian Lewis committed to the Buffaloes on Thursday in a stylish video in which Shedeur handed him the keys to the franchise.

For Coach Prime to excel without his son, he requires a quarterback he can mold into his ideal player.

Julian Lewis is the right mixture of age and skill for this task.
