Colorado Buffaloes players are not just receiving guidance for their on-field skills, but also for their financial future. Deion Sanders, known for his unique take on life, leads the Buffs in a class that challenges their perception of wealth. For Coach Prime, wealth is not a mere ‘money bag’, but a ‘real bag’ that requires more than just financial success. 

Earlier, Deion Sanders took big names like Magic Johnson and Michael Jordan and talked about how they worked to give a reality check to the college athletes who often get lured by NIL.

Coach Prime’s pep-talk on being wealthy

The Buffs millionaire HC threw an important question at the players about their notion of wealth. When the answer came from the crowd, Coach Prime got carried off by sharing his principles on financial success. He claimed, “You want it, you got to work it.” For a better understanding of the Buffs players, Sanders broke down the vast topic of wealth, “How you going to work it and get the wealth because wealth don’t just come because wealth is more than rich, wealth is just longevity, wealth is consistency, wealth is a real bag, wealth is something that’s generational.”

The Buffs HC believes that not every player is willing to do the hard work that would make them wealthy. He fuels the locker room with advice that appears to be an extension of the motivational anecdotes he shared a few days back.

Deion Sanders takes big names to prove his point

Earlier, Deion Sanders expressed dissatisfaction with the players who run after instant gratification, which is common in a world enamored with the allure of NIL deals. Coach Prime decided to take things into his own hands. The Buffs HC tried to differentiate between the expectations of the present generation of players against the hard-earned success of big names like Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson. 

Giving a clear idea of the real scenario, Sanders spilled some hard-hitting facts. In a YouTube interview, the coach claimed, “You know Magic had to be Magic several years down the street before he got whatever he had now. You guys want it right now and you can’t really handle that light and handle the adversity and handle the trials and tribulations and you’re not really ready for that because you just came out the womb.”

Deion Sanders’ key advice to the players is to focus on their work and not be swayed by the allure of instant wealth. He emphasizes that true success is a journey, not a destination and that wealth is earned through hard work and longevity, not instant gratification.
