Deion Sanders gives hints as to who might be next at the top of his rankings


Deion Sanders gives hints as to who might be next at the top of his rankings

Colorado Buffaloes head coach Deion Sanders recently gave a playful update on his “Kid Rankings,” a lighthearted tradition in which he publicly rates his five children.

During an appearance on FOX’s Big Noon Kickoff, Sanders said his daughter, Shelomi Sanders, showed him a T-shirt that put her at the top of the rankings. The T-shirt was a clear attempt to claim first place, but Coach Prime did not reveal if it had any influence on his decision. Staying true to form, he did not give an official update on his current rankings. But he did say, “Shilo worked his way down.”

This playful family dynamic is a recurring theme for Sanders, who often jokes about the rankings of his children, which include Shedeur, Shilo, Deion Jr., Deiondra and Shelomi. Both Shedeur and Shilo currently play for him at Colorado, with Shedeur excelling at quarterback and Shilo playing a key role on defense. Deion Jr. is also involved in the Buffaloes’ program and runs some of CU’s social media efforts, keeping the family close in their professional and athletic endeavors.

Sanders’ eldest daughter Deiondra now lives in Atlanta and recently became a mother. She welcomed a baby boy with R&B singer Jacquees. Although not directly involved with the Buffaloes, the entire Sanders family remains an important part of Coach Prime’s life and his public persona.

With his family by his side, Coach Prime and the Colorado Buffaloes prepare for their Big 12 Conference debut, taking on Baylor this Saturday at 8 p.m. ET on FOX. As always, all eyes will be on Sanders, his coaching and his sons’ performance on the field under his guidance. Whether Shelomi will climb to the top of the rankings remains to be seen, but the family’s playful competition keeps fans entertained alongside Colorado’s rise in college football.
