Deion Sanders Avoids Reporter Question at Press Conference

In a heated news conference on Friday, Colorado football head coach Deion Sanders expressed his displeasure with CBS and The Denver Post, making it clear that he had no intention of collaborating with CBS. Sanders, wearing sunglasses, confronted a reporter from CBS Denver, stating, “I’m not doing nothing with CBS. It ain’t got nothing to do with you.” His remarks came after CBS Sports ranked him as the second-worst coach in the Big 12, a decision that may have fueled his frustration. Sanders reiterated his respect for the local reporter but was adamant about his grievances with CBS. He questioned the motivations behind the negative portrayal, asking, “Like what did we do to you?” Despite the reporter's attempts to steer the conversation back to football, Sanders remained fixated on the perceived slight, indicating that he felt disrespected by the media coverage. The tension escalated when a columnist from The Denver Post attempted to ask a football-related question, but Sanders continued to press for answers regarding the negative press. “But why? I’m asking you why? Like what did we do to you?” he insisted, highlighting his dissatisfaction with the media's treatment of his team. While the exact nature of Sanders' grievances remains unclear, speculation suggests that the CBS ranking and a recent meme mocking Colorado's promotional video may have contributed to his outburst. As the season approaches, Sanders' frustrations with the media could signal a challenging relationship moving forward.
