Deion Sanders faces pressure to extend his contract with CU Buffs amid NFL interest

Deion recently said he loves Boulder and everything about the Buffs. He’s got a good thing going with the team, the coaches, and the community. But then, why hasn’t he signed an extension yet? It’s all part of the game. Negotiations are happening through the media, and both sides are playing it cool.
There’s been talk about how much he should be paid. If Indiana’s coach is making big bucks, shouldn’t Deion get a fair deal too? But here’s the catch: Indiana has a lot more cash flow from their conference. CU’s revenue isn’t quite on the same level, so it’s a tricky situation.
Rick George, the athletic director, has joked about how much he’s already spent to bring Deion on board. They’ve given him bonuses for his success, but how much more can they stretch their budget? It’s clear they want to keep him, especially with the way he’s turned the program around.
The Big 12 is looking for a standout team, and CU is in a good spot. They’ve got a chance to shine without facing the big-name teams that usually dominate. It’s a more manageable path to success.
Meanwhile, Jerry Jones is feeling the heat. The Cowboys haven’t been performing well, and fans are getting restless. Deion’s buyout is dropping, making it easier for him to leave if he wanted to. But he’s made it clear that he loves CU and wants to build something special there.
In the end, if Deion really loves Boulder and the Buffs, he’ll sign that extension. The Big 12 needs a leader, and he’s the perfect fit. Let’s see what happens next!
