"Everybody's got their own things to do. I've got love in my heart and a lot of respect for what they're doing. Nothing will bother me. At the end of the day, if Shedeur felt like I disrespected his father, he's standing up for him. Good for him. My son would stand up for me. I've got a bunch of players in there, they'll show up on Saturday."According to Shedeur Sanders, Rhule <a href="https://247sports.com/article/nebraska-football-coach-matt-rhule-takes-potential-shot-at-colorado-deion-sanders-for-eyeing-spring-transfers-208557783/">showed "disrespect" to Colorado's program last spring</a> after harping on the Buffaloes' uncharacteristic transfer portal philosophy."It was extremely personal," Sanders told reporters after the win in September 2023. "We got out there and warmup, you got the head coach of the other team trying to stand in the middle of the Buff (midfield logo). A couple players do it, it's fine, just enjoy the scenery. But when you got the whole team trying to disrespect it, I'm not going for that at all. I went in there and disrupted, so they knew off rip (right away) that nah, the Buffalo means a lot to me. That's what I was seeing pre-game and that's when I knew it was extreme disrespect and that's why."The coach said a lot of things about my pops, about the program, but now that he wanna act nice, I don't respect that because you're hating on another man. You shouldn't do that. All respect was gone for them and their program. I like playing against their DC (defensive coordinator), I like playing against them. But respect level, it ain't there because you disrespected us first."The "nice" act that Sanders was referring to stems from Rhule sprinting across the field to congratulate Coach Prime following Colorado's 36-14 victory over Nebraska. Rhule had previously hinted that having a camera crew document team activities took the focus away from the players.
