Deion Sanders Given Honorable Award

Sports Illustrated recently announced that Coach Sanders is 2023's Sportsperson of the Year.

Sanders has dominated the world of college sports. Again, I do not mean wins or loses. He has truly been the face of college football when it comes to pop culture. I spend a lot of my time watching sports talk shows. It seemed like every hour of every show mentioned Deion Sanders at least once.

I would groan watching it almost as much as the NFL's coverage of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.

Deion Sanders is a fresh and exciting breath in the world of Colorado sports and I expect him to be here a long time.

Here is what SI said.
