Deion Sanders, also known as Coach Prime, has done an excellent job of turning around the Colorado Buffaloes football program. Before he arrived two years ago, Colorado was viewed as one of the worst Division I programs in the country. However, he brought a new culture to the team that he brought to every NFL team he played for during his playing career. He is a motivational coach, and he tweeted out some words of wisdom on Thursday, Jan. 23.
Coach Prime Releases a Motivational Message on How To Succeed
Whether it was as a player in the NFL or a coach in college football, Sanders has always been successful. So, when he talks about how you can change your life to succeed, it makes sense to listen.
“We’re where we are is because of Hard work, focus, sacrifices & commitment or Laziness, complacency, blame & dysfunction. Regardless of your location good or bad, it’s YOU! Stop right now & take responsibility of YOUR LIFE! It’s YOU. Your ISSUE IS – YOU! 2025 = CHANGE.”

Coach Prime will often post motivational or introspective content on social media. However, one thing he is unlikely to comment on via social media is his status for next season. There are rumors that Coach Prime could take his services to the NFL in 2025.
Rumors have circulated in recent weeks that Sanders would accept the Dallas Cowboys head coach job if it were offered to him. Ed Werner reported the news on Jan. 16 on X (formerly known as Twitter).
“Regarding Deion Sanders: I’m being told that he would almost certainly accept if Jerry Jones offers to make him the next Cowboys head coach, that those around him are encouraging him to pursue it and that Jones is enamored with the idea.”

However, these rumors come after Sanders has stated several times that he is happy in Colorado and does not intend to leave. It is not clear whether he meant it or only said it publically to save face with the media. Regardless, the rumors have heated up, especially now that the Cowboys have let go of head coach Mike McCarthy.
Dallas will likely hire a new head coach in the coming weeks, and Sanders could be an option, though recent rumors seem to point elsewhere as there are no scheduled interviews between the two parties. Coach Prime was once known as Prime Time during his time with the Dallas Cowboys as a player. It would be interesting to see him return as a coach.
