The 2024 college football season marks the last one of Deion Sanders being able to coach his sons at Colorado. And it is only fair for him to have some departing advice for his sins as they gear up for the NFL. While it surely states the obvious to play well, it has some additional pearls of wisdom for his sons, which coincided with the recent display of their interests outside work, haute contour.

Shedeur Sanders and Shilo Sanders might have garnered some criticism for the records they had in the 2023 season, but their collaboration with Louis Vuitton’s Pharrell Williams for the men’s fall/winter 2023 collection was one for the books. Donning the orange checkered signature Willams outfits, Shedeur Sanders and Shilo Sanders made headlines for their diverse ventures. Well, ‘When you dress good, you play good,‘ is the motto that Deion Sanders propagated during his appearance for the Blender Shades show. “Look good, feel good. Feel good, play good. Play god, they gon pay good,” Sanders said, deriving the inspiration straight from his sons.

Per reports, Shedeur Sanders and Shilo Sanders got paid a hefty amount for trotting down the ramp walk for Louis Vuitton. However, it was a bit less than the recognition they brought the Sanders brothers. “It’s the details, bro. That’s a lot of things you don’t undеrstand about thе dеtails. People just don’t know fashion,” Deion Sanders proudly flaunted his son’s achievements. Well, his sons have come far since then, reaching a level where they were about to gift their father a pristine retirement home. But Deion Sanders had other things planned for his retirement.

Deion Sanders’ retirement plans

Right now, we just purchased like almost 200 more acres behind the acres that we already have,” Deion Sanders revealed in his podcast with NFL. Well, Sanders was wary of his sons gifting him a $7.2 million mansion, stating that it goes against his values. Rather, he added the land to his existing estate, highlighting his plans for it. “ In the long run, I want them to build homes right there,” Prime said. He also mentioned communicating the same to his sons through an Instagram group. It didn’t end up the way he expected.

“I sent them that. I said, ‘That’s what I want for y’all.’ And Shilo’s like, ‘I don’t want to live with Shedeur,” Prime confessed, revealing the unknown public tension between the two brothers. Will this tension between the two ruin Coach Prime’s retirement dream? Or will the two end up building the houses together for their father? Only time will tell.
