Deion Sanders knows what it’s like to rise above tough environments and economic means to become a superstar.
Growing up in Fort Myers, Florida, Sanders made a promise to his mother at age seven that one day he would make enough money that she would never have to work again.
After the tragic news of Takeoff’s fatal shooting in Houston on Tuesday, Coach Prime had a powerful message for his team about separating themselves from the troubles and circumstances of the past to get where they want to be and the value of life:
The college football world reacted to Sanders’ words on social media.
“Remember your value..” one user replied.
“This man makes me prouder by the day, we need more of this in our communities,” another fan said.
“I really like Coach Prime.”
“Kids in all sports might want to listen to this.”
“More of this in every setting please!” another tweeted.
“Gold,” commented legendary MC Chuck D.
Two minutes and 29 seconds that are certainly worth your time.
