<p>Colorado football coach Deion Sanders has returned to campus in Boulder after recovering from an undisclosed health issue at his ranch in east Texas this summer.</p>
<p>Sanders, 57, announced it on social media July 25, just a couple of days before his team is due to report for preseason training camp. A school spokesman confirmed he is in Boulder. He also is scheduled to hold a news conference with his medical team in Boulder on Monday.</p>
<p>"Back and Feeling Great!" he said on social media site X.</p>
<p>Sanders has a history of blood circulation issues in his legs that led to surgeries in 2023 and the amputation of two toes before that. But he hasn't revealed what ailed him since suffering the health setback in May and then missing several events in May and June, including a speaking engagement in Florida and Colorado's annual high school and youth football camps.</p>
<p>Football recruits who visited in June were told he was out sick. He did appear at a Big 12 Conference media days event July 9 but declined to talk about his health.</p>

<p>He then recently left his ranch to visit his son Shilo at preseason camp for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on July 23.</p>
<p>His eldest son Deion Jr. talked about the ordeal in a video he posted from the ranch on YouTube on July 22.</p>
<p>"I'm kind of sad," Deion Jr. said of his last day at the ranch. "I'm not gonna lie to you. I learned to really actually love this place. I really never stayed out here much. … It's not even just about being here. It was like the battle that was fought here. The battle that was fought and won here. That's like the main important thing. Boys didn't left the house for two months."</p>
<p>He called it a blessing and said details would be coming soon, as documented on video, much in the spirit of the "Coach Prime" marketing machine.</p>
<p>"He's gonna tell y'all whatever he went through very soon, and I've got a lot of it recorded on video," Deion Jr. said. "So you'll be able to see what he went through."</p>
<p>Colorado opens the season at home against Georgia Tech on Aug. 29. It will be Deion Sanders' third season at Colorado after finishing 4-8 in 2023 and 9-4 in 2024. But it will be a challenge after several top players left for the NFL, including his quarterback son Shedeur, safety son Shilo and Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter.</p>
