Colorado’s Deion Sanders Poised to Become Grandfather for First Time
Colorado football coach Deion Sanders is preparing to become a grandfather for the first time, as his oldest child, Deiondra, announced her pregnancy on Friday.
The 56-year-old coach clearly was excited about the news when he commented on his daughter’s Instagram post announcing the news. He had to emphasize how he will be a relatively young grandfather, too.
“PREACH BABY PREACH, and u having this baby to make me a darn GRANDDADDY even though I’m YOUNG! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂” Sanders commented.” I Love u baby and I’m glad u said u ain’t having a baby to keep a man. You’ve always had a MAN in your life that u call DADDY & ain’t gon ever ever let u DOWN especially when I’m UP. #OWWA”
Colorado football coach Deion Sanders is set to become a grandfather for the first time as daughter Deiondra announced she’s pregnant.
In Deiondra’s post, she discussed how difficult it was for her to get pregnant. She wrote that she underwent four myomectomy surgeries and was told her pregnancy could cause health risks. So she calls the baby her “miracle.”
Sanders has five children: Deiondra (31) and Deion Jr. (30) with ex-wife Carolyn Chambers, then Shilo (24), Shedeur (22) and Shelomi (20) with ex-wife Pilar Biggers-Sanders.
Deion Sanders says NFL will have a huge problem with Travis Hunter
According to Coach Prime, the dual-threat player has the potential to revolutionize the sport.
Travis Hunter’s prowess as a playmaker has garnered the trust of Deion Sanders, motivating him to join Coach Prime in Colorado. With unwavering confidence, Sanders is convinced that this two-way sensation will continue to flourish and eventually compel NFL teams to contemplate his tactical incorporation into their strategies.
During a recent moment captured by Well Off Media, Sanders stated that the league will now have to acknowledge Hunter as a genuine two-way threat, proficient in both cornerback and wide receiver positions.
“The NFL has a dilemma of how to draft him since he’s capable in both offense and defense,” remarked Sanders. “He holds significant value on either side.”
Even Coach Prime agrees that Hunter is likely to push for playing on both sides of the ball, and he may be right. Although this might not continue throughout his career, Hunter’s desire to succeed sets him apart from previous players who played multiple positions. Additionally, he will expect higher compensation as a significant contributor in most snaps.
During his debut season with Colorado, Hunter achieved the distinguished accolades of being a consensus All-American player and recipient of the 2023 Paul Hornung Award. Despite encountering an injury to his liver preceding their schedule against Pac-12 opponents, he managed to participate in nine games for Buffs while successfully recording impressive stats on both sides – garnering 57 receptions resulting in 721 yards and five touchdowns as well as securing thirty-one tackles alongside five pass deflections and three interceptions while playing defense.
On Saturday, Hunter received his hardware in Louisville, KY at a ceremony. Despite being based in Boulder, he took a break to show support for the children present. It was heartening to witness him showcasing our program beyond its usual context.
CU’s Black and Gold Spring Game on April 27 marks the beginning of Hunter’s final stage in his collegiate career.
