When it comes to sports in the family, sometimes everyone’s voice is taken into account. Coach Prime’s youngest daughter, Shelomi Sanders, decided to take the opportunity to tell the truth and explain in detail why she left Colorado for warmer climes. She seems to have found happiness when she transferred to Alabama A&M to play for the women’s basketball team.

Deion Sanders also didn’t think much of his daughter entering the transfer portal. He publicly stated that it was “stupid” of her to make the move back to an HBCU. Coach Prime believes in old-school parenting, wished his daughter luck and added that his children should follow their parents and not the other way around.

Shelomi felt it was time for her to break away from the rest of the family in Boulder and forge her own path by becoming a college athlete on her own terms. She recently jumped on a Live interviewsaid the last year had been difficult. After getting feedback from her mother, Pilar Sanders, she concluded it was time to go.

“I don’t want to say anything too bad,” Sanders said in a livestream. “It just wasn’t good energy. It wasn’t good vibes. There wasn’t enough investment in me as a player and a young lady. If I hadn’t left when I did, I promise you I would have quit.”

This is the third stop in Sanders’ young college career, which began at Jackson State. She played 11 minutes in five games for the Buffs last season. Sanders went to JSU after averaging 16 points per game and was named to the first-team All-District for District 10 6A in Texas as a senior at Rockwall-Heath High School in 2022.

Shelomi Sanders transferred to Alabama A&M to play for the Lady Bulldogs basketball team in her first year as head coach of the women’s basketball team under Dawn Thornton. He has two years of eligibility remaining. Hopefully Coach Prime will be there to cheer Shelomi on when the Buffs football season is over.
