Coach Prime effect on Livingston

On being asked about the challenges and opportunities while working in the iconic presence of Deion Sanders, the latest YouTube interview on Three Pregame found Livingston to be positive about Coach Prime. Besides Sanders, the Buffs DC touched upon defining the defensive identity with a quote from Colorado DC, Jonathan Ganon, “When he was introduced in Philadelphia his quote at the introductory press conference which probably didn’t go over great in Philly because nothing does is “You know, I don’t have a playbook. I will do what the players do well,” and “that’s kind of our rally and cry.”

Now that everyone abides by the motto of not following a playbook, including Sanders himself, it has been a novel experience altogether.
