What led to his trust in the coaching staff?

“The coaching staff has been on me since the start of my recruiting process and they have been so consistent with their message to me. For over a year they have been investing into me and treating me like family and that means a lot to me!”

In his own words, what type of player is Colorado getting in Josiah Sanders?

“I would describe my game as someone who can do whatever it takes to win. Getting downhill and drawing attention is for sure one of my strengths and from there I just make reads and use my IQ and make the right reads. I’m comfortable playing off ball screens and I can score at all three levels and make cross court passes that throw the defense off.”

He has a message for Colorado fans.

“A message that I have for the Colorado fans would just be to get ready to pack the house and watch the buffs turn up because we are going to do special things for sure!”
