A very interesting rumor/report has hit social media.

Su’a Cravens, a former linebacker/safety hybrid for the University of Southern California, is now a sports analyst at CBS Sports Central. He is reporting — via sources — that Colorado not only has Coach Deion “Prime” Sanders as a ‘done deal’  but Sanders plans on bringing a defensive coordinator from Alabama’s staff. An announcement is supposed to come from Sanders or Colorado this weekend or early next week. Some Alabama fans would hope this is the call for Pete Golding, but that is not the case.

According to close sources, Touchdown Alabama Magazine is being told that Freddie Roach and Travaris Robinson are the ones targeted for the opportunity to join Coach Prime.

We will see what happens, but the speculation is Sanders will get a defensive coordinator from the Tide’s staff.
