Deion Sanders is currently the head coach of the CU football team in Boulder, Colorado. He was formerly a professional football and baseball player — he played in the NFL for 14 seasons and he played in the MLB for 9 seasons.

Although he is quite famous for his sports history, he is more than just football to a lot of people. He has accepted an informal role with UC Health promoting active lifestyles, he ran a summer youth camp, and his unconventional methods and motivational statements have made him an inspiration to youth, sports fans, and Black athletes and coaches nationwide.

Here is a clip of Sanders sharing what has led him to become a mentor for so many, as well as how some of the staff and students at FHS have been affected by him.
