Ever since taking over as the head coach for the Colorado Buffaloes last year, Deion Sanders has been focused on keeping his team disciplined. With the Spring Break now at an end, the Buffaloes have hit the field again for their practice session. However, their dedication took Coach Prime by surprise, and he felt proud of how well the players maintained the decorum on the first day.

Deion Sanders’ oldest son, Deion Jr., recently posted a vlog on his channel “Well Off Media,” where he covered the teams’ first practice session at Colorado University after spring break. The video starts with Sanders addressing the players in the meeting room, before transitioning to the field where they were seen working out and warming up with intense back-to-back sprints.
When Deion Sanders witnessed how each Colorado player was excited to begin their training, he couldn’t help but praise the young athletes. In one section of the video, he even revealed how none of the players was late, absent, or made silly excuses to skip practice sessions. Coach Prime stated,
“I believe it may be the first time since I’ve been a college head coach, we can even go back to high school. When you give the young man a break, a week for spring break and every last one of them come back on time. Not late, no call and saying I missed the flight first time ever. I love it.”
That wasn’t all. Deion Sanders also shared that it was the first time, whether coaching at college or high school level, that he had seen such dedication on the first day. Sanders expressed his happiness and pride, saying that while he loved the atmosphere, seeing every single player working hard and paying attention to details, impressed him greatly.
The motivation and excitement of Colorado’s players are off the charts. Also, all of it makes sense as why would they miss a chance to learn from the legendary two-time Super Bowl champion, Deion Sanders?
