Paul Finebaum wasn’t impressed by Colorado coach Deion Sanders’ decision not to take questions from Denver Post columnist Sean Keeler anymore and he went as far as to call Sanders a “bully” during an appearance on ESPN’s “Get Up.”

The news that Keeler was banned from asking questions has made waves in journalism circles and naturally was a topic of discussion on the World Wide Leader. 

In a statement last week, Colorado claimed that Keller had written a “series of sustained, personal attacks on the football program and specifically Coach Prime.”

Finebaum saw the situation a bit differently. 

“Coach Prime is showing he is not ready for prime time, Greeny,” Finebaum said during the program to host Mike Greenberg. “I find this whole thing to be disgraceful. Deion may want to talk about love and joy and that’s been the cornerstone of what he seems to be spewing out. But treating reporters like this seems like we’re in some autocratic country. This is not America. And the fact that it’s in his contract is really even more absurd.

“But don’t forget he did this at Jackson State. This is a trait of Deion Sanders. He wants to have it his way and I find him to be a bully and a hypocrite. And quite frankly, as someone who has been a fan of his throughout his entire career, even at Colorado, I am mortified by his actions.”

Sanders hasn’t appeared to directly address the controversy but spoke to reporters on Saturday and talked in general about how he deals with criticism. 

The Colorado coach and former NFL star also said that he’s “not a hateful guy” and that “I come with love,” which Finebaum seemed to reference while on ESPN on Monday morning. 

While Finebaum took to criticizing Sanders, fellow ESPNer Dan Orlovsky defended the decision and expressed an understanding of where the program and coach were coming from. 

“I don’t mind the fact that he’s trying to control a little bit of the narrative, both him and the institution,” Orlovsky said. “We can sit here and say ‘because of the seat that you have, you just have to sit there and take it.’ But we also do live in a time where at some point, some of these people are allowed to stand up for themselves and not just constantly get dragged.”

The Buffaloes open their season on Thursday against North Dakota State.
