Sanders' ascension through coaching has been a story of resilience and an embodiment of success against the odds. Initially dismissed when he expressed ambitions of leading an NFL team, Sanders took on the mantle of coaching at historically black colleges, eventually leading him to Colorado.

This trajectory showcases a shift not only in perceptions of historically black college football but also as a nod to the overarching narratives of Black excellence in sports.
