To continue his legacy from the game’s most decorated players to translate that into a coaching career is a testimony of his achievements. The Buffs’ HC got candid in a never-before-seen avatar on the Well-Off Media’s recent vlog.

The Prime Time was a dominant player and one of his key strengths was his agility and speed. That Prime Time is now replaced by a limping Deion Sanders who after several surgeries possesses the same fiery passion. Recently. while he was jogging around the practice pitch, he shared a near-death experience when he was hospitalized for his clots. “I was in the hospital in Jackson State for almost a month. And this patient used to yell and scream….I was at that moment so medicated and drugged up, I’d barely be awake but I can hear him scream.”

This was the time when Deion underwent his surgeries and got his calves cut out from both sides. Coach Prime went on with his anecdote- “I can remember just extending my hand over there and praying for the gentleman. And then after I concluded the prayer, I just gave God the praise and thanks to the glory.” concluded Deion with the story. He showcased how he prayed for the welfare of his neighbor in the hospital. It shows the concern the HC has for others and the importance of praying.

This vlog came in a few days after the famous vintage car garage tour.
