Colorado coach Deion Sanders announces dismissal of several players after 41-7 loss
Colorado head coach Deion Sanders said multiple players have been removed from the football program following a 41-7 defeat to Northwestern, citing ongoing conduct issues.
Colorado head coach Deion Sanders said on Tuesday that several players are no longer part of the Buffaloes football program after the team was beaten 41-7 by Northwestern on Saturday. Sanders did not identify the individuals or specify the infractions, but emphasized that the dismissals were not the result of a single incident. > "When you start being conduct detrimental to the team, that would set us back and things you’re doing that you don’t care about the team, you care about you, I have a problem with that," he said. He added that he had been less strict with discipline the previous year, which he believes contributed to problems that later escalated, and that he will enforce stricter standards this season. The university issued a statement indicating that roster changes have not been finalized and that an updated roster will be released later in the week.
