It’s safe to say that Deion Sanders has a unique approach to coaching a football team. And since he’s become the head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes, it seems that not everyone likes that approach.
This week, Deion Sanders was involved in yet another controversy when transferring player Zachary Courtney claimed on Twitter that Sanders was barring him from sharing his practice film with other schools.
“For the coaches who are trying to recruit me. I am sorry but I will not be able to get y’all my film from my practices last season since I am not allowed to have it because the head coach at CU won’t allow it. This is very unlucky and if you have any questions just text me!” Courtney said in a tweet. “Again this is not a shot at Deion I just wanted coaches to know I have no film for them!!”

Courtney’s tweet seems to have caught the attention of UConn Huskies head coach Jim Mora, who absolutely blasted Deion Sanders in a tweet without actually mentioning him.
“Any coach that won’t allow a transfer to access film is operating from a place of complete paranoia. You really believe an opponent can gather info from random clips? @Realrclark25. Part of the job of a COLLEGE Coach is to advocate for your student-athletes…current and past!” Mora said in a tweet on Wednesday.

It’s safe to say that Deion Sanders is already creating some enemies in the college football world.
