“Opened her eyes and bust out laughing”: Coach Prime shares hilarious moment with daughter Shelomi Sanders ahead of Alabama A&M season opener

Coach Prime shared a special moment with his daughter, Shelomi Sanders, before she was set to make her debut with Alabama A&M on Thursday. After one season each at Jackson State and Colorado, Sanders transferred to play for the Bulldogs this season.

On Friday, Deion Sanders shared via an Instagram about a FaceTime call he had with his 'Babygirl “Bossy”' before her game, during which she made a hilarious mistake.

​

"I said, 'Baby let me pray for u & she closed her eyes and I said “BABY YOU DRIVING AIN’TCha? Lololol," Coach Prime wrote. "She opened her eyes and bust out laughing. This was certainly a moment we both will never forget. At least she was be righteous at that moment."

Shelomi Sanders played for just four minutes and went scoreless in the season opener against the Alabama Crimson Tide. The Bulldogs lost the game 84-59.

Coach Prime seemingly changes his stance on Shelomi Sanders' big move

When Sanders took the coaching job at Colorado, Shelomi followed him. However, in August, she said that she was unhappy with the team and hence transferred to Alabama A&M.

​

"For me, I would say, yeah, last year during the beginning where I just came home sad every day," Sanders said. "I was sad and mad like every day. That and when I was at Jackson, like if I didn't leave when I did, I promise you I would have quit," she admitted.

"It just wasn't good energy, wasn't good vibes, wasn't enough being poured into me as a player... it was just bad. But I'm good now," she added.

However, Coach Prime criticized the move, calling it a stupid decision. There seemed to be a bit of friction between the father and daughter as her mother, Pilar Sanders, also went online and blasted her ex-husband for being harsh on their daughter.

She also claimed that Pilar had missed out on experiencing recruitment properly because of her famous father. However, since then, Coach Prime has changed his stance on Shelomi Sanders' move.

Deion shared a clip of the guard scoring a bucket in an exhibition game against Oakwood University on Monday. She had 14 points and two steals in the 96-50 win.

​

"I’m so PROUD OF U BABYGIRL & that at the end let’s them know that you’re a $ANDERS! Daboo Daboo Daboo. @blenders."

Shelomi Sanders will next face off against Eastern Michigan on Saturday.
