[@classicreaction5340]

So many young people have no clue what it was like when Deion Sanders stepped on the football field in the 90s. He was like watching electricity on two legs. He was THE most-feared cornerback and return man of all time. Anytime he touched the ball he had a chance to score, because it seemed like he was in a different gear than everyone else on the field. You'll see guys get interceptions and make great returns, but nobody has come close to what Deion was back then.

[@dawns505]

Nobody has come even half way close!!!!

[@tqwrd]

My favorite athlete of all time

[@adrian4565]

They say he don’t have the stats because they wouldn’t throw the ball that way

[@samoramachel55]

If anyone can't see what he's showcasing for young men - of all races to be successful - then you've got issues that don't align with love for your fellow man. Great interview. Undisputed Truth.

[@newmediarules]

You wanna know why they hate Deion Sanders so much? They hate the fact that so many people love and admire him. They want the world to hate Coach Prime like THEY do; even though they don't have a legitimate reason to hate him...and they KNOW they don't😅 But they will never admit to this. They can't. It has to be frustrating asl. Glad I'm not a small petty hater😎

Coach Primes entire family and anyone else who connected to him and CU are truly blessed indeed. He’s feeding a lot of families all across the world because of his Love for God and his servitude. He truly loves helping people and not only the kids but all people no matter the the race or gender. How could anyone not like him and he’s so positive it’s just contagious.

[@Michelle-uw2im]

I’m glad to hear from Coach Prime about how he is accepting accountability for both the good and bad times in the past season. There were quite a few ‘hurt’ kids who were at Colorado who had their dreams dashed in short order. I definitely expect to see change from what he learned this past season. I’m cheering Coach Prime to fix many of the things that he didn’t foresee last season and be better next season. This is a journey and I surely don’t expect perfection since we are all human. Blessings!

You never hear Coach Prime speak negatively of other programs and people, yet he has SO much hate going his way smh.

Colorado should have won the Stanford game without question up 29 at the half and up 7 going to the 4th quarter vs Arizona to finish 6-6.
