- Sanders signs extension after two-year turnaround
- Buffaloes coming off 9-4 season and bowl appearance
Colorado coach Deion Sanders has received a contract extension through the 2029 season after turning around a downtrodden program in just two seasons.
The school said the extension increases Sanders’ yearly base salary to $10m this year, making him the highest-paid football coach in the Big 12. The deal was reached with three years remaining on Sanders’ existing five-year, $29.5m deal he signed when he was brought in from Jackson State.
