Coach Prime's ex-wife Carolyn Chambers gives a shoutout to him for his heartwarming prayer for Deiondra Sanders & Jacquees
Colorado Buffaloes coach Deion Sanders aka Coach Prime has fulfilled his pre-season promise to fans by leading the Buffs to bowl-eligibility for the first time in eight years.
Meanwhile, Sanders used the Buffs' bye week ahead of their game against the Texas Tech Red Raiders in Week 10 of college football action to visit his firstborn daughter, Deiondra Sanders, her fiance Jacquees, and his grandson.
On Friday, the Buffs coach posted a clip on Instagram where he said a prayer for his daughter and her family.
On Saturday, Coach Prime's first wife and Deiondra's mother, Carolyn Chambers, whom he divorced in 1998, reposted the clip of the coach saying the prayer for their daughter and her family.
Coach Prime supported Deiondra Sanders throughout her pregnancy
When Deiondra Sanders first announced the news of her pregnancy, her father, Coach Prime, in an interview with 'PEOPLE', revealed that he was not ready to be a grandfather but later softened his position as his daughter's due date grew closer.
When Deiondra documented on an Instagram post the difficulty that she had to go through to conceive, her father supported her wholeheartedly with a wholesome comment.
"PREACH BABY PREACH, and u having this baby to make me a darn GRANDDADDY even though I'm YOUNG! I Love u baby, and I'm glad u said u ain't having a baby to keep a man. You've always had a MAN in your life that u call DADDY & ain't gon ever ever let u DOWN especially when I'm UP," Deion Sanders wrote.
Even before his grandson was born, the Buffs coach was already making plans for him. In a clip posted on the "Well Off Media" channels, Deion Sanders showed his support for Deiondra and the plans that he had for his grandson.
"Much love, much respect and I'm proud of my big baby girl, she's gonna have a little boy," Coach Prime said. "So the little engine is gonna be a little boy which I'm excited about. We've already signed him up for soccer lessons, we've already got him enrolled with some of the best soccer coaches and she's saying that he's gonna be tall but they said the same thing about Bucky."
During the Buffs' bye week, Coach Prime first visited his daughter and her family, detailing a hilarious experience with Baby Que (Deiondra's son), who had a misadventure in his nappies when the coach was carrying him.
