Deion Sanders once said, “I don’t follow trends – I set trends.” Now, it looks like the 56-year-old coach’s fashion statement has set a trend for Colorado’s police department! With his growing influence in Boulder and his trademark style, looking the best opens up many avenues.

One of the most memorable fashion tips Deion Sanders shared with his followers is his signature quote: “If you look good, you feel good. If you feel good, you play good. If you play good, they pay good.” The CU Boulder Police have embraced this message and are crediting Sanders for the new style.

CU Boulder Police adopts Deion Sanders’ Cowboy Hats style

In his latest Instagram post on July 9, the CU Buffs head coach, known for his classy fashion sense, shared a screenshot of a tweet from CU Boulder Police featuring “Ofc. Simon” sporting a black cowboy hat. The tweet reads, “Thanks for the fashion tip @DeionSanders! Our dress code now allows for certain #CowboyHats!… We bet you’ll see more hats on other officers and RSOs soon!” With a heart filled with gratitude, Deion Sanders captioned the post, “Grateful.”

The CU Boulder police adopting Coach Prime’s signature cowboy look indicates his growing influence in Colorado as he prepares for his second season. To show his appreciation for the support from the police force, Sanders proposed supplying an “Official Police Cowboy Hat” to the “entire staff” if needed. Coach Prime has genuinely shown incredible generosity. Known for his everlasting fashion sense as evidenced by his Nike shoe designs and classy, branded gear, may go above and above to produce some of the best styles if the police staff agrees to his idea. However, his fashion statement isn’t the only aspect that’s winning hearts. 

Coach Prime effect gives Colorado the upper hand 

Not many head coaches receive as much hype as Deion Sanders, despite a 4-8 record last season. It’s because he has something others don’t – the “Coach Prime effect.” Thanks to his team’s marketing moves and promotional campaigns, the Buffs’ fame has skyrocketed, leading to a sell-out of tickets for the upcoming 2024 season.

Sanders’ influence has also given Colorado fresh hope in recruiting 5-star QB Julian Lewis, who is highly sought after by programs like Auburn and USC, to which he is currently committed. “Coach Prime is super positive and motivating,” Lewis said. The upcoming season, starting with a game against North Dakota on August 29 could solidify Sanders’ impact in Boulder.
