As a Steelers fan it pains me to say how much I respect this man and his vision of building good men not just football players. Good work Papa Prime!

[@BetterWorld0]

Shouldn’t pain you at all it’s just sports.

[@DDDD22244]

With all due respect, being a fan of a team shouldn’t matter when respecting someone or not lol.

Loved the way Coach Prime answered her question about confidence and arrogance. It's your insecurities!!

[@williebell4793]

That's right! Don't let anyone else design your world. They will always make it too small. Sayless

[@GoogleAccount00]

Ehhhh some one can always be arrogant. It wasn’t a good answer to me but….

What can I say about Coach Prime? But what a man, what a mighty good man!!

[@madboyreadynow28]

Deions daughter was suppose to be on my girls basketball team when she was 7. I was coaching my daughter’s basketball team at the time. Deiondre never showed up. I was told she was in Houston with her mother. That same year my son was born. 8 years later my son is playing against Deions sons in the FFL. We use to practice on the same field in a residential community of Little Elm, TX. My son wore #21. We played Deions team and Deion told my son to make his number proud. My son has 9 sacks that game and was never great ever again. I saw it for myself how Coach Prime and at that time that was Deions first coaching gig in the FFL. Deion made my son great for 1 game. I told my son a few months ago if he played for Deion he may be at Colorado right now.
