Coach Prime & ex-wife Pilar Sanders' daughter Shelomi shows up in all-white Colorado jersey for Week 4 game against Baylor

Coach Prime had a hell of a week after his team made easy work of their state rivals, the Colorado State Rams, posting a convincing 28-9 victory. However, after the week 3 game against Jay Norvell's team, Deion Sanders found himself in off-field controversies with the media over his remark that they were jealous of his players because of NIL.

Sanders will again take over Folsom Field for his Week 4 matchup against the Baylor Bears. He'll have his family and ex-wife to support him for the game. While rocking her pigtail hairstyle, Shelomi posted an Instagram story in an all-white Colorado merch and a gold chain. Have a look:

Shelomi plays basketball for the Alabama A&M Bulldogs. She used to play the Colorado Buffaloes last season before entering the transfer portal in April, a decision her dad wasn't happy about.

This is Shelomi's third school in as many years, her first being Jackson State, where Deion Sanders also used to coach their football team.

Coach Prime at peace with daughter Shelomi Sanders' Alabama A&M move

Unlike her brothers, Shedeur and Shilo Sanders, Shelomi took a different route to fulfill her college sports dream. The 20-year-old made a decision to leave his father’s shadow in Boulder and transferred to Alabama A&M in the summer.

Initially, Coach Prime called her decision to enter the portal “stupid” on DNVR BUFFS LIVE, stating,

"You don’t enter the portal without a team."

While his initial reaction was harsh, it seems the father-daughter duo has now reached an understanding. Talking with NBC Sports, Shelomi said,

"You know, he is my dad and he's also a coach, so I think that's why he kind of just had a reaction like that. But we handled and discussed things behind closed doors so it's all good now."

Her move came after a tough season at Colorado. She barely saw the court, with 2.6 minutes of average playing time and 0.7 points per game. Struggling both mentally and physically, Shelomi looked for a change. Now, at Alabama A&M, Shelomi is ready to shine.
