The ongoing College Football season is providing some iconic moments. Several of them, courtesy of Prime Time, Deion Sanders. Along with incredible football, the 2x Superbowl winner has also brought a lot of attention and money to the Boulder program. Last year, the team generated nearly $95 million in revenue. Well, Coach Prime’s home-opener grossed $18 million for the team. Of course, they have faced scrutiny from rivaling coaches. But the Buffs have also drawn support from several NBA legends. One of them is Dwyane Wade.

As renowned Hollywood Actor and former WWE star Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson joined in on the post-win festivities, Coach Prime and his mother talked about kicking ‘a*s’.

Dwyane Wade endorses Deion Sanders’ mother’s ‘sassy remarks

The Colorado Buffaloes beat Colorado State 43-35 yesterday. Interestingly, in the buildup to the game, rival head coach Jay Norvell had insulted Coach Prime and his dressing sense. However, following their comeback victory, Sanders addressed the media. Deion stood at the center of the room, with the camera focused on him. Along with his mother, Prime Time was also joined by Dwayne Johnson. The Rock was among the various celebrities who attended the highly anticipated matchup in person.

During the post-game session, Deion Sanders touched base on the recent jab by Norvell. Sanders stated that by insulting the way he was raised, Norvell indirectly took a jab at Sanders’ mother. This was something that would not play well with the 56-year-old.

From the looks of it, Connie Sanders was also prepared with a response in her mind. “I raised him right!” she said.

Onlookers cheered and even Johnson started to applaud. “I also told him to always be yourself. If you have to kick a*s, KICK A*S!” The last statement made by Sanders’ mother made the crowd wild, with cheers booming from every corner of the room.

The reel caught the attention of Miami Heat legend Dwyane Wade himself. The three time NBA champion has never shied away from providing his endorsement to the NFL legend. Most recently, Wade had highlighted Sanders’ iconic SNL moment on social media.

This time, he promoted Deion and Connie’s triumph over Jay Norvell.

Jay Norvell’s jab at Coach Prime

Interestingly, Norvell’s criticism was not aimed towards Sanders’ coaching skills or even his earlier stint in the NFL. It was aimed at his dressing choice.

“I don’t care if they hear this in Boulder. I told them (ESPN) ‘I took my hat off, and I took my glasses off.’ And I said, ‘When I talk to grown-ups, I take my hat and my glasses off. That’s what my mother taught me,’” said Norvell during his weekly radio show.

From the looks of it, however, it seemed like it was Sanders who had the last laugh in the end. Not only did the sales of his iconic sunglasses line rose, he won the game and called out his opponent with his mother and The Rock by his side.
