Snow Falls at Colorado Ahead of First Spring Game With Deion Sanders

Going from coaching Jackson State to Colorado, Deion Sanders has to make many adjustments to his new environment. One such adjustment is dealing with snow, even during times of the year when it isn’t expected.

Boulder was in the middle of a snowstorm this week, and it received enough snow ahead of Colorado’s spring game on Saturday that they had to get the field cleared before the game. ESPN analyst Robert Griffin III was on hand to watch the game and posted a video showing how much snow was on the field before it was cleared.

Griffin also shared videos of Shedeur Sanders, Deion’s son and Colorado’s new quarterback, warming up on the freshly plowed field ahead of the game, after the skies cleared and the snow stopped falling. 

Sanders has some time before Colorado has to play competition in these Midwestern elements, but playing the spring game after a snowstorm seems like good practice.
