Atheist Group Goes After Colorado Football Coach Deion Sanders for Conducting Prayers with Student-Athletes

The University of Colorado’s new head football coach may want to engage in “religious exercises” with the team’s members and staff, but a group that supports the separation of church and state wants the university to censor any such activities. In a letter, last week to the University of Colorado Boulder Chancellor Phil DiStefano, the Freedom From Religion Foundation alleged that Sanders had been engaging in “inappropriate and unconstitutional actions” by “engaging in religious exercises with players and staff members.” Sanders only took over as Colorado’s coach in December, but the letter from FFRF specifically mentions that period.

It’s always ‘a few people are butt-hurt…’ so stand down and change the rules for everybody.
