Despite Colorado football coach Deion Sanders’s high profile and strong personality, he’s just like any other father in at least one regard. He wants the best for his daughter.
Shelomi Sanders, 19, is a redshirt freshman guard going into her first season at Colorado. Asked about the women’s basketball team beginning practice this week, Coach Prime quickly made it clear how protective he is of his youngest child.
“That’s my baby girl and my heart,” Sanders told reporters during his weekly press conference. “I love all my kids, but I love them differently as I tell you all the time.”
