Deion Sanders Sets Strict Classroom Rules as Colorado's QB Race Tilts Toward Kaidon Salter

The coach links classroom standards to NIL accountability to reinforce discipline before Colorado's Aug. 29 opener.

Overview

  • Video from Well Off Media captured Sanders banning slides, hoodies and headphones in class, prohibiting back-row seating, and requiring shirts during online sessions, with staff assigned to monitor compliance.
  • Colorado has tied player compensation to academic performance under Sanders, and the team reports program-best GPAs in Fall 2024 (3.011) and Spring 2025 (2.957).
  • With first-team practice reps and local reporting favoring him, Liberty transfer Kaidon Salter is viewed by beat writers as the likely Week 1 starter against Georgia Tech.
  • Freshman Julian "JuJu" Lewis has earned strong receiver endorsements and could see package snaps, according to On3 reporting that suggests a limited platoon is possible.
  • Sanders says he is cancer-free and full-go for 2025, as the Buffaloes open at home versus Georgia Tech on Aug. 29.
