Colorado pulls off opening shocker in Deion Sanders' debut, 45-42 over No. 17 TCU
Jean-Jacques Taylor, author of the upcoming book "Coach Prime: Deion Sanders and the Making of Men", sat down with FOX 4 on Sunday night to talk about how Sanders is changing the tone of a team that won a single game a year ago. Taylor says the same attitude that Sanders brought to Jackson State will allow him to be successful at Colorado."A lot of people motivate, and they push people to try to get him there. What [Sanders] does is he pulls you," said Taylor. "I set a standard that's up here, and then I take you and make you reach that standard and I don't allow you not to reach the standard. If you're willing to work and try and put forth all things to get there.
"Not only were there no restrictions, he didn't ask, he didn't care," Taylor said. "He figured, if I got you in here and I trust you, you'll talk to the people you need to talk to, and you'll do the things you need to do, to make the book a success, and tell the true story of Jackson State."The head coach said he kept receipts on media members who had publicly doubted Colorado.
