Deion Sanders on Colorado’s Campus FOR THE FIRST TIME: Tours Football Facility & Stadium

[@kdogsolyte]

I thank Coach Prime for showing JSU and the entirety of HBCUs what is possible. He achieved more in 3 yrs at JSU than many coaches do in 10 or more. Perfect season - 1st time ever. College GameDay at JSU - 1st time ever. GMA appearance. New facilities, new practice field, and more people talking about HBCUs than I've seen in quite a while. This was never about him becoming an HBCU coach til he retires. He blessed us with showing just what's possible.

You were the first NFL player who’s name I knew. I’m saying all this because I’m so happy a childhood hero of mine has been so blessed and still can be confident yet humble in a way not too many other men can. You’re an inspiration to us all sir.

HBCU's have a lot of alumni but most aren't millionaire billionaire donors to leave money to build major facilities or pay coaches on par with the Major Schools. That's why no HBCU fan should be complaining about Deion leaving. He delivered the championships, the exposure, and his own money at times when many HBCU graduates and fans don't give a dime or time to HBCU's.

We don't need to model our HBCU sports facilities after white folks shit. We should make our facilities look better than there's.

[@redzoom7857]

That facility is bonkers, everything is top notch! Congrats on the opportunity Coach Prime. 😎

[@WAbrown100]

And honestly: for a d1 program they aren’t ant where near middle if ye pack in facility quality… not even close

With all this man has seen done as a player and now a coach, he still is very humble

[@DDMF9]

Hahahahahaah this made me laugh

[@preciousone9377]

He turned Jackson state all the way around. He did it with honor and commitment. Big ups to coach prime. Good luck with the new team and future endeavors. You deserve it, may God continue to bless you.

CU is mostly a white school but not racist when hiring head coaches...including Coach Sanders, four of CU's last five head coaches have been black. Everyone, including the black players who are a majority of the team, believed Mel Tucker was there for the long term, but he bolted in the middle of the night for the $$$ after one year. Not CU's fault.

DEION deserves this just as much as any coach out there his talents will be measured on the field as before & DEION is always up for the challenge let's go get it Coach!!💯 🏆 Congrats 🎉

[@samoramachel55]

I am so glad that he's sharing this journey with all of us who've been a fan of his for many years. We should not begrudge anyone who's blessing young people, especially in these times to become better men and woman. Everything he's done in football the last three years has been ordained by his belief in a higher power. I am so happy that he's moved to the next level and taking this entire country along for the ride!

True because he cut be like some and cut them out..I love that it DONT STOP.

We love you Coach Prime, and that'll never change! What's understood doesn't need to be explained! Congratulations to you and your Family!

He never said he was not going to entertain offers. He did say, "I'll be a fool not to." Although I'm sad to see him go, he has and will continue to open up doors for others. He has truly poured into the lives of these young men. I pray they take the life lessons he bestowed on them and finish the race strong. Both in sports and academics.

[@Vee316]

Yes!!! I believe this will open more doors for diversity.

[@ForeverE12]

@@Vee316 so you would rather pwi’s, schools that didn’t even allow POC into their schools, to have diversity than to uplift & grow our very own hbcu’s? Whew all skin folk ain’t kinfolk fa sho.
