Deion Sanders’ 60 Minutes answer to who is the best coach in college football was so perfectly Prime

I would venture to say most college football coaches think highly of themselves, and Deion Sanders is no different.

However, coach Prime wears that confidence in himself on the outside, and he has a track record to support his belief; he’s 3-0 in his first season as head coach at Colorado after going 27-6 in three years at Jackson State. That’s before we get into his accolades as a player.

So, his answer on 60 Minutes, when asked who is the best coach in college football today, should surprise nobody. And, yet, it was still hilarious to hear.

“Let me see a mirror, so I can look at him,” Sanders said.

I’m sure 60 minutes got exactly what it was looking for with that answer. I also think most other coaches would have similarly said themselves, though they might not have done it with as much charisma as Sanders.

That answer will probably turn some people off, because for some reason, people hate when other people believe in themselves. But it’s hard to argue with the results. Sanders also still paid homage to his friend Nick Saban, who is probably the answer for most fans. So, good for him.
