Deion Sanders was not happy with Shelomi Sanders’ transfer portal decision
During a recent interview with DNVR Sports, Coach Prime talked about Shelomi’s decision to transfer from the Buffs. He said that the decision taken by his daughter was ‘stupid’ and questioned her evaluation to enter the portal.
“It was stupid. You don’t enter the portal. You get a team before you enter the portal. That’s what I would advise a child. And I know, “Well it’s illegal…C’mon man”.
Coach Prime also stated that despite Shelomi’s decision to transfer, he will continue leading the Colorado Buffaloes on the field.
“You got to understand I’m a father man. I’m a real father. I’m a real man, I’m a real dad. Where I come from histrorically, kids follow their parents. When do parents start following their kids? That don’t work in my book. That don’t work where I am from. I am the leader of the family. I’ve been dictating where my kids go not them dictating where I go. I’m happy, I’m cool I’m sound in Boulder and we’re gonna build a monument.”
It will be interesting to see how Shelomi Sanders performs with his new team this upcoming season.
