The Colorado Buffs had a great year, improving from 4-8 in Deion Sanders’ first season to finishing 9-3 overall. Despite their 52-0 win against Oklahoma State, the Buffs won’t be part of the Big 12 Championship game. This is because Arizona State and Iowa State won the right to play for the championship according to league tiebreaker rules. After the game, the Sanders family had a moment for themselves, which even Dwyane Wade appreciated. After all, even his extended family will soon ball out in Colorado.

Before we talk about the Heat legend’s family, let’s look at his reaction to Coach Prime’s Instagram post. “What’s better than this!?” D-Wade added the post where head coach Deion Sanders surrounded himself with his three sons. Buffaloes safety Shilo Sanders #21, and quarterback Shedeur Sanders #2 with the eldest son of Primetime, Deion Sanders Jr.

A family moment, that Coach captioned, “It’s a beautiful thing #CoachPrime @cubuffsfootball (posted by @deionsandersjr).” It’s not the only family moment that Dwyane Wade shared. Yesterday, the 3x NBA Champion celebrated the son of renowned basketball trainer Coach Chris Johnson’s recent achievement. Isaiah Johnson, the senior from Campbell Hall, scored his 1,000 career points. So, the 2008-09 Scoring Champion added a 4 four reaction.
