Colorado head coach Deion Sanders discussed his recent social media comments in an appearance on Thee Pregame Show.

"I gotta do better on that and not ride with it, but I was bored," Sanders said (14:30 mark). "I was bored, and I didn't say nothing hurtful. I don't attack people."

"Most of the time, I let it go," he added. "Sometimes, I'm having fun. Like, I was bored yesterday."

On Wednesday, Sanders responded to a fan on X that criticized Shedeur Sanders. After the fan called the Buffaloes' quarterback "the coldest out here" before adding that he'll "put up a 4-8 season," the elder Sanders replied.

COACH PRIME @DeionSanders

He will be a top 5 pick. Where yo son going ? Lololol I got time today. Lololol <a href="">

The criticism by the fan stemmed from Shedeur's comments regarding Xavier Smith, a former Colorado player who entered the transfer portal. Smith wasn't pleased with the way Deion recommended players to hit the portal after he joined the team as head coach in Dec. 2022.

"He was destroying guys' confidence and belief in themselves," he said, per Max Olson of The Athletic. "The way he did it, it could've been done with a little more compassion."

Shedeur responded to the story with a post of his own on X, leading to the criticism that was directed at himself as well as Deion.

It's clear that the elder Sanders isn't taking the social media comments too seriously, and is entertaining himself as he prepares for the 2024 season to begin. The Buffaloes will look to build upon their 4-8 record in 2023 with Shedeur and two-way star Travis Hunter returning to the program.

Colorado also secured the No. 7 transfer class in the 2024 cycle, per 247Sports.

After putting the social media back-and-forth behind him, Coach Prime and the Buffaloes will gear up for the team's 2024 campaign.
