Because of this situation with Prime, I actually watched all of the games and now watch many other college football games. I never watched games in college at all. I am 65 and just started to enjoy college football because of what Prime brings to the kids. He lost games, but they came close, and never gave up. Many of the games were close. He did not start with all the winners

If Even when I’m losing, I’m winning! was a person🙂 Congrats to coach Prime & CU Buffs!

Haters don’t realize they are equally apart of why he will always WIN. I admire people like him who will never let haters keep him from chasing his dreams and his passions. He will never let haters keep him from being his authentic self. He has inspired so many and will continue to do so. All of us who believe in the underdog, that is Colorado and that is the average human, will be rooting him on no matter what the haters have to say.

Sports Illustrated is a survivor and so is Coach Prime!

They chose HIM. He brought Colorado Buffs and Boulder to a who other stratosphere that they could ever imagine. Buffs football will be a powerhouse under Coach Prime this is just one season, and I don’t think y’all understand what he is capable of one thing for certain and two things for sure Deion Sanders won’t ever doubt God or himself to show the world what greatness looks like. You best believe that.

That was a great article on Coach Prime by Sports Illustrated! Well deserved!

I've never been a football fan, but I know the name of EVERYONE in that cover photo - that's the power of effectively utilizing social media. Congratulations Coach Prime!!! You deserve this honor. You're a true force to be reckoned with and I enjoy following this Colorado Buffs journey. Your family, team, & staff have so much personality and are so fun to watch. Praying huge success for you all.

Congratulations Coach Prime!

One thing nobody can take from Neon Deion, Prime Time or any other name , he is a born WINNER consistently. I am a proud fan from his Atlanta Falcons Days (I’m from Atlanta), Reality shows, Coaching Truth, and now Coach of the Buffaloes 🦬 Can we all just yell…… HEY HATERS.
-
Congratulations Coach Prime. Well Deserved

Sportsperson of the year for bringing life to a college campus and transforming a community never seen anyone in my 50 plus years of watching sports get an award like this but hey congratulations.
-
It’s “Prime Time” in Colorado, he’s got everyone believing and on the move to achieving. This is one of the all time great college football stories. If you aren’t inspired to be a winner with Deion as your mentor you will never be inspired to succeed. This team is only moving up the ladder now. Im a Bama fan up in Canada but couldn’t help but smile when I saw what was happening in Colorado. Good luck and wishing you all the success in the world. Congratulations Deion!!!
