Deion Sanders Wants College Football Award To Be Named After Himself

by Larry Leo

November 21, 202419 Comments

The Thorpe Award has been issued to cornerbacks and safeties over the years, but Deion Sanders thinks there should be a separate trophy for the best cornerback in the country, and he knows just the person it should be named after...himself...

"Prime" has dropped to well below "Choice" probably more around "Spoiled"

Great player...no doubt.... BUT...really not as good as he THOUGHT he was!
Lost him when he was a senior and he said he was more popular than Jesus!
Also...NEVER...EVER was a good tackler!

Sure, and the trophy could be the image of Bo Jackson throwing him like a rag doll.

What an idiot.

I'm not Sanders apologist but if he were serious (he's def mostly joking here) he wouldn't be wrong. Not sure who here is old enough to have seen him play in the NFL but he was so good in pass protection that his quarter of the field was completely unapproachable via the pass. And God help you if you tried and he got the pick because he ran like a HOF tailback. Dude was special (even if he is an a-hole)

Those dudes from Miami said they knocked the Jheri curl out his head.

Agree, he was a special player at corner and as a kick returner. He wasn't Rod Woodson as far as being physical but FSU didn't ask him to be. When he got his hands on the ball lookout....except against the Hurricanes. The funnest players to watch in my life were Johnny Rodgers, Rocket Ismail and Deion.

That's the game where he dominated Michael Irvin, right?

What an idiot!! But they will give into him and do it or he will cry racism!!

The guy says it joking and lightly and look how angry you guys are lol. As if he isn't known as the best CB or one of the best CBs in football history

Hubris is a trait that draws the ire of others. Deion has built an entire image on Hubris. And its like the dude cannot ever take the high road. His nickname should be FIGJAM, instead of prime time.

Yeah right. I've seen Sanders go out of his way to avoid making a tackle just to keep from making a hard hit tackle. Ronnie Lott puts him to shame in that department.

You think he's joking?

I guess the award will go to a fragile bitch that is afraid to tackle.
