When Nick Saban retired as head coach of Alabama, Steve Sarkisian admitted to briefly considering the possibility of replacing him. Sarkisian coached under Saban as his offensive coordinator. 

"Naturally, I'd be lying if I said I didn't think about it," Sarkisian told ESPN. "But it took me all of about 60 seconds to say, 'Yeah, I'm not doing that.' I had an awesome two years at Alabama and loved my time under Coach Saban, but ultimately you want to reap what you sow.

"We've poured a ton into this program for three years, and we're on the cusp, I think, of going on a run that will be epic. I believe that. Our staff does, and our players do, too, just the support we have and the culture we've created here. Why leave something like that?"

Warren Sapp has joined Deion Sanders' coaching staff at Colorado.

Sanders said Sapp would be joining the staff late last year, but the school said in January that no move had been made.

"Senior quality control analyst, it's a mouthful, and you’ll hear me before you see me most of the time," Sapp said. "But what we gonna do is, big fellas -- stance, alignment and assignment ... We're gonna pour concrete because you know I like nice stuff. And we're building mansions here, so that's why I'm here -- to help you build your mansion."

In a statement to Brent Schrotenboer of USA Today, the school confirmed Sapp is a graduate assistant and that he has enrolled in continuing education classes at the school.
