W410: Coach Prime’s Key Lessons for Associations
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
Deion “Prime Time” Sanders was a force to be reckoned with as a two-sport professional athlete in the ‘90s. Today Sanders is a college football coach who still acts with flair and bravado. Love him or hate him, Coach Prime refuses to be ignored. Sanders coached for three years at Jackson State University, an HBCU (Historically Black College or University) in Jackson, Mississippi before being named the head coach at the University of Colorado in December 2022.
