Diego Pavia arrives in Boulder and says he’d love to suit up for Coach Prime – Glory Colorado

Diego Pavia came to Boulder to support Deion Sanders and his Colorado friends. With the Buffaloes facing major quarterback issues ahead of their game against Utah, one comment from Pavia’s live stream carried extra weight.
“I do wish I could, you know, play for Coach Prime,” Pavia said live on Twitch.
Coach Prime recruited Pavia coming out of high school, and Pavia said that opportunity helped open doors in his football career.
“I feel like when you get offered in football, more offers come,” Pavia said. “So, in a way, I wouldn’t be here without, you know, Coach Prime’s offer. So, I came to support him, his team.”
Pavia made clear that he still values those relationships, even though his football career took him elsewhere. Diego was a Heisman finalist last season and won the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award. He also led the Vanderbilt Commodores to their first ever 10-win season.
After going undrafted last April, Diego signed with the Baltimore Ravens. He was later released during training camp.
“There ain’t no bad blood ever,” he said. “At least that’s how I feel. You can support your friends wherever they go.”
Pavia took the field at Colorado and recorded Instagram footage captioned “big day tomorrow.” His Twitch stream gave viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the program, including the football facility, indoor practice area and weight room. He promoted the stream on Instagram with a Story captioned “streaming live at Prime's house."
He also weighed in on the matchup. Pavia said he had not watched much film on Utah yet, but he expected Colorado quarterback Isaac Wilson to have a good game against his former team. After meeting Wilson, Pavia described him as “super locked in” and said he reminded him of himself before game day.
The former Vandy QB backed Colorado’s ambitions, too. When viewers asked whether the Utah game was a must-win, he said, “I don’t disagree, but we just have to make the Big 12 championship. And, you know, we’ll get there.” He also said Colorado should have beaten Texas Tech and called a 14½-point spread against the Buffaloes “disrespectful.” Pavia said he wanted to see Colorado win comfortably against Utah.
Utah looks to improve their record to 6-0, while the Buffs try to win their Big 12 game this season. Kickoff is scheduled for 8:15 p.m. MT (10:15 p.m. ET) and will air nationally on ESPN.
