It was Deion Sanders who helped Gary Harrell get his first opportunity with a Power 5 conference program, but Harrell was one of the keys to helping Sanders get his collegiate coaching career off the ground three years ago.
“I’ve been in coaching for about 22 years and in this business, you need someone that can take you places that you probably can’t get to on your own,” Harrell, CU’s assistant head coach/running backs coach, said this week. “And I knew I had a special guy when I met coach Prime. I knew he was going places based on some of the things that we implemented within a short span of time at Jackson State.”
Harrell, who grew up in Miami, knows HBCU football better than most. He played at Howard and worked as an assistant coach at four different HBCU programs before a six-year run as Howard’s head coach from 2011-16. He was an assistant at another HBCU program, Alabama State, in 2019 when he met Sanders.
As assistant head coach, Harrell will play a major role as Sanders’ right-hand man, but he’s also tasked with getting the Buffaloes’ run game going.
