In pics: Coach Prime's daughter Shelomi Sanders turns heads with her stunning all-black dress via latest IG post
Shelomi Sanders is looking forward to starting the 2024-25 college basketball season with her new team, the Alabama A&M Bulldogs, next month. However, for now, Coach Prime's daughter is enjoying the offseason, attending Colorado football games, hanging out with her mother, Pilar Sanders, and wowing social media fans with her looks.
The Alabama A&M guard uploaded a picture on Instagram for her 457K followers in a stunning black gown, which she complimented with a necklace and bracelet.
The former Colorado Buffaloes athlete has been in the public eye lately. On Sept. 22, she attended her father's Big 12 debut game in Week 4 against the Baylor Bears.
Shelomi witnessed her brother Shedeur Sanders' heroics in that game and documented moments from the matchup in her YouTube vlog. She also participated in the celebrations when Colorado fans stormed the field after the 38-31 victory.

Coach Prime and Shelomi Sanders bury the hatchet over Alabama A&M move
Shelomi’s decision to transfer to Alabama A&M in April was unexpected. Her father, Deion "Coach Prime" Sanders, initially called the move "stupid." However, the father-daughter duo has since made peace with each other.
In an interview with NBC Sports in September, 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." [06:05]
The main reason Deion Sanders’ daughter transferred was that she was underutilized at Colorado. Last season, the 20-year-old played in seven games but averaged 2.6 minutes per game. Her struggles on and off the court drove her to seek better opportunities.
“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,” Shelomi said in an IG live video in September.
Now at Alabama A&M, Shelomi hopes to thrive under coach Joni Taylor and show off her 3-point shooting abilities. Back in high school, Deion’s youngest averaged 16 points per game. The 2024-25 college basketball season will be a fresh start for Shelomi.
