Kordell Stewart would like to join the Colorado coaching staff
Former Colorado quarterback Kordell Stewart, who spent 11 years in the NFL after a 1994 Hail Mary to beat Michigan became one of the great plays in college football history, would like to return to Boulder as a member of Deion Sanders's coaching staff. “When you’re ‘Slash,’ you do a whole bunch of stuff,’’ Stewart told Chris Tomasson of the Denver Gazette . “Coaching is something I love to do tremendously.
I would love to have it be at my institution , to be honest with you, because I just love being here. " Stewart was back in Denver for his induction into the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame. He's currently starting his second season as the offensive coordinator at North Forsyth (Ga.
) High School. Before that, he was an assistant for five years at North Atlanta High School. Stewart nevertheless wants to return to his college program.
“We’ve had conversations [about a possible job], but [Sanders] has to do what he has to do,’’ Stewart told Tomasson. "He’s a friend more than anybody I need to have hire me as a coach. And if it’s time for me to have that opportunity to be here with him or anybody else, I’ll bite on it real quick and come in and do it.
" Stewart is fine with whatever happens. “He’s got a great staff since he’s been here,’’ Stewart said. “He doesn’t owe anything to me.
