Deion Sanders Made Transfer Earn Number—and it Paid Off
Deion Sanders Made Transfer Earn Number—and it Paid Off originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Colorado head coach Deion Sanders offers something more foundational compared to other college coaches. An NFL-experienced staff and a culture built on competition. It's a big reason why everything at Colorado must be earned. When LaJohntay Wester wanted to get No. 1 last year, he earn it from Sanders, who doesn't give out his best jersey to anyone. Advertisement Sanders' message has been clear to all his players. Show up and be the best you can at all times. Tulsa transfer wide receiver Joseph Williams recently went on the record about being courted by Coach Prime while being committed to Utah. The 2024 AAC Freshman of the Year told the Reach The People Media's Darius Sanders there was another school willing to give him No. 8. But Coach Prime explained Williams it's that easy, it's not worth it. 'I'm not going to say the school, but a school made a phone call when I told them I wanted No. 8. He said, 'Yeah, reserve the number until I say otherwise,'' Williams said. 'But Coach Prime said I had to come in and earn it. That really got me. He's not going to give me what I want just because I want it. I have to earn everything. My jersey number, things I need, things I want.' Advertisement For Williams, Sanders' basis for earning the number was eye-opening. Related: Deion Sanders' Cryptic Three-Word Message Comes After Publicizing Health Setbacks 'My whole life, we didn't live the best, we struggled a little bit,' Williams said. 'My mom always taught me never take the easy way out. If you take the easy way out, nothing good is gonna come out of it. Hearing Coach Prime say that, all I heard was my mom—'No easy way outs.' That was super big for me.' Related: Lil Wayne Sends Clear Message to Deion Sanders in Tha Carter VI Sanders' message isn't for everyone. Especially with NIL deals being offered in massive amounts. But Williams is a natural fit for his mindset. He brings character to a deep WR room ready to catch passes from either Liberty transfer Kaidon Salter or five-star Julian 'JuJu' Lewis.

Texas A&M lands star outfielder and Flower Mound (TX) native from the transfer portal
Texas A&M lands star outfielder and Flower Mound (TX) native from the transfer portal Texas A&M's 2026 baseball roster will won't look drastically different, but will include several new faces from Florida Atlantic's 2025 roster, as pitcher Michael (MJ) Bollinger committed to the Aggies on Friday, while star outfielder Jake Duer, who was the Owl's best hitter before his season-ending injury, is also headed to College Station next season. With the news that Utility player/outfielder Jamal George has entered the transfer portal, Duer's addition is timely, and his Texas connection as a Flower Mound (TX) native started his career at TCU before transferring to FAU. At the same time, his elite statline included 428/.551/1.048 with 11 doubles, 27 RBIs, and 21 walks in 34 games before his injury. Knowing that infielder Wyatt Henseler is out of eligibility and junior outfielder Jace LaViolette is likely headed to the 2025 MLB Draft, it was vital for second-year head coach Michael Earley to land an elite hitter with experience, knowing that third baseman Gavin Grahovac is returning from his season-ending injury. Duer is an immediate starting option with plenty of production. However, he only hit two home runs, which is the only knock for a player hitting .428. Entering the 2026 season as a senior, this is a big year for Duer, who has his own MLB dreams, knowing that a great season in the SEC can solidify his baseball future. Star junior outfielder Caden Sorrell has yet to announce his return, but knowing that his former Marcus High School teammate is now on the team, that could all but seal the deal.

Former New Orleans Saints, Tulane linebacker earns contract extension with CFL team
The New Orleans Saints have had some very impressive undrafted free agents over the years, and whether they ended up panning out for them or for another team, seeing them succeed at the sport they love is always a nice feeling. One of the more notable pickups they had a few years ago was Tulane linebacker Nick Anderson, who they signed in 2023 but would not retain as a part of the final roster cuts. This would lead to an opportunity in the CFL for Anderson instead, who signed with the Edmonton Elks on March 11 the next year, and immediately made a name for himself there. In his first season with the team, he put together 111 defensive tackles, an interception, 3 sacks, and 2 forced fumbles. For this, he would receive the CFL Most Outstanding Rookie award, the Jackie Parker Trophy for most outstanding rookie in the West Division, and a CFL All-Star nod as well. Advertisement Not only that, but he has also earned an extension from the Elks through the 2026 season, as was reported in a recent team announcement. This will be an exceptional opportunity for the young linebacker to not only continue to improve but also to compete for the highly coveted Grey Cup with a rapidly improving team. His success has been extremely impressive to see through the first season of his professional career, and hopefully, as time goes on, he will prove to be one of the best at his position.
