When Jim Harbaugh took over at Michigan, he gave two options to those who skipped class: 2am study session with coach, or 4am conditioning. Good to see coaches still making school a priority for student athletes.
At the end of the day, everybody ain’t going to the league. Gotta prepare these men for the real world
@@vince11harris Absolutely. And those who are going to the league won't be there forever.
School does wanders for student debt

@@zatchg1212 make fun I was retired right after highschool and it’s magical to have 30-50 grand deposited by wires every month so college boy take out a hundred k loan and still be the dumpster man LMFAO THIS CLOWN
I love that the professor threw in the "when he is here he is kind and respectful" before saying all the negative stuff as well. Some people just dont wont to learn, which is fine we are all humans with flaws. But still being respectful in that moment goes along way in how you will be treated back.
You have made an excellent statement.
If you don’t want to learn, you’re taking a spot from a deserving student, who does.
It's not _'fine'_ These are supposed to be institutions of higher learning and they are not mandatory to attend. These professional athletes should not be enrolled in these schools and instead belong in a minor league system directly operating under the auspices of the NFL or similar body.
@@tommyriam8320 100%.
@@colonialstraits1069 he isnt taking the spot of anyone, he’s there because of obligation
See this, y'all? THIS is a coach that genuinely cares about his players well being.
All coaches need to be like Coach Prime.
Judge a man - not on what he says but on how he lives his life - Deion totally fails on that criteria
… unless a better opportunity comes his way. He’s not the second coming of of the Messiah, he’s a college football coach.
Where was this lecture about education when he ran 70% of the student athlete football players off last year?
Not all. But more
Cares about his players, yet released 80 of them when he got to Colorado
This should be viewed by ALL college players.
And almost as importantly all coaches and parents as well.
Even Alabama?
Yeah why not@@richardm3023
…As a great example of a scripted PR stunt to mask how horribly Deion has treated his players
@@samuelking4723 how do u know
I have been the first to be critical of Prime in the past. This man has done nothing but prove me wrong, mor than once. Much respect
Me as well
same here
Glad y’all haters seeing the truth
@@Tri.dawg1 being critical or criticizing someone doesn't make you a hater 😂
He's proven me right, in that he's failing already and it will only get worse. His own behavior is what led his players to act like this. He has zero class himself and they follow suit.
We need more coaches like that, not just making these guys great players, but making them men as well.
I’m famous mom
😂😂😂
Haha you're a retard
Just to go 4-8
Dabo, but everyone hates him "because religion", lol. Look, I'm probably the least religious man you will ever know, but you know what? Dabo does it right, as do ALL coaches with the same mindset. The NFL is probably NOT in their future. Preach getting good grades and learning how to live a life OUTSIDE of football.
Deon is a thug and so are his players. You can see the way they act on the football field. Not surprised at all.
This clearly shows why this man is successful where ever he goes. Keep up the good work coach.
He was a terrible student. Literally did not go to class.
It’s funny watching him harp on players now, when he did the same things they did, and he doesn’t talk about that.
Success?
he won 4 games...1 conference game...come on
@@willl7780you are forgetting he had to literally rebuild an entire team. The year before he got there they won 1 game, he had a whole new roster. Give him his time
@@claytron3000 That's redundant. He's not their peer, he's their coach, and their academic performance affects the team. What do you want him to say "yeah, I did that too" or do you want him to address the issue? Dude just can't win with people like you.
I've had group projects made way harder than they needed to be because I got a football or basketball player in my group.
In college I worked at the football practice facility of a major power 5 school. Mind you going in I was a lifelong fan of this team, so I thought they could do no wrong. Oh boy how my opinion changed. After 2 years working in this facility I learned one thing, 80-90% of the athletes who walked through those doors felt like the entire campus should worship the ground they walked on. Therefore they acted as such, not paying attention in class, trashing their locker room, and showing no respect to me or my coworkers.. amongst other things. And that lack of accountability and discipline showed up on the field, as they failed to meet expectations year after year. So when I tell you I LOVE seeing this I mean it. Because too many of these college athletes are allowed to skate by without any consequence, and therefore learn nothing while in college. So props to coach Prime, he’s setting ALL of his players up for success.. whether they become professional football players, teachers, or doctors. Keep it up!
I can only imagine it's gotten much worse for any athletes who earn NIL money however I don't believe coach is doing anything other than performing for the cameras.
@@TP-pq9xx Yes It's not like he was giving this speech last year.
@@TP-pq9xxto be fair. Sometimes you don’t know it’s a problem until someone brings it to your attention. He was alerted and is addressing it.
Its Boulder not Tuscaloosa.
@@TP-pq9xx culture change takes a while and completely overhauling a program is a large task. Better to wait and see what comes of this in the years to come rather than judge based on his first year.
Personal responsibility….the lost art of a civilized society.
Is a million dollar coach who assembled a roster of transfers putting them on blast "personal responsibility"?
@@johnbragg2652Absolutely. And I’m not a “king of self promotion” Deion Sanders fan. What say you John Bragg?
@@johnbragg2652if they aren’t going to hold themselves accountable, someone will. And they know going in that there are cameras everywhere. 1+1=2
Accountability is a lost as well. 😔
Like ABORTIONS?
Way to go COACH!! Much love to you for standing tall and strong with these young men. Tell it like it is, because this is LIFE.
Only problem was he kinda of caused this this goes to show is lack of leadership
amen.
Deion has done A LOT of growing up since his days in the NFL. WOW! 👊❤️
What a beautiful mix of calling out the players, the coaches, and the system.
Big ups, coach!
4-8😂🤣
He wasn’t really calling out the system, just acknowledging it as a cause
@@TheRealAwesomePossum didn't make varsity 😂😂
Amen! Make these young men accountable for something in life
The buck stops at him, so it's in his best interest to be a coach! Let's hope he can coach, the product this fall will be the evidence!
This is what Coaching should all be about
Really? Never missing an opportunity to be in front of the camera.
4-8
its what all coaches do when they find out stuff like this is going on in the classroom unless they TRULY dont care about their players but thats very rare.
Except it's all lip service. Coaches don't care when you miss classes to go play in a mid-week tournament. I played college Basketball and coaches care just enough to make them look good. Tell them you need to miss practice to study more and see what they say.
@@jongordon7914imagine having to pay just so you can learn
"At the mall and no money" that one stings 😂🤣😂🤣
Amen! Preach it Prime. So much truth he’s speaking. I love how he speaks into the lives of his players, students.
I certainly agree with you, Coach. As a parent, I would be very upset if one of those students were mine. Parents send their children to college in hopes that they will create a better life for themselves. ❤much love to you Coach for what you’re doing for those young men. I pray that they will have a change of heart about their lives.

I’ve been a fan of Deion sanders since his first day in the NFL now I’m a super fan and what he’s doing coaching the young players well done my friend
This is a good man being a coach to these guys.
He iight
Coach Sanders your emphasis on effort and responsibility will benefit your players and young students who follow you.
Team is absolute trash. His son doesn’t even attend classes on campus. They a lot about flashing watches and acting hard while going 4-8 😂
God Bless you Deion!
What. A. Quality. COACH.
There’s really no point in investing so much in sports if no character is built.
Totally agree bro
There's a certain irony in Sanders, a famously apathetic student who finished his final semester of college with a 0.0 GPA, now holding a position of power at a prestigious academic institution, but that's a topic for another day.
@@jonr7364almost as if people learn from their own mistakes and want to help the next generation not make the same mistakes they made when they were younger.

@@user-em7dv9wg7y fair enough. We shall revisit this topic in December.
this coach is so good and responsible. Also this is just like my coach in high school. This talk is definitely going to help me.
Great message, Coach Prime! 🙌🏾 A true educator
They are _still_ student-athletes, first. It's actually closer to 99% won't play in a player-paid league and college will be the end of their sports career as they know it. Well said, Coach!
That's why NIL money shouldn't be allowed. They are students.
@@KK-pm7udthey’ll just spend it on chains & rims…
@@KK-pm7ud Fair point but the horse has bolted...
@@KK-pm7ud The schools should give back the tv checks if they're just students.
@@nachobroryan8824 Nope. That should go to the students who actually go to class and learn. And there should be a cap on how much administrators make and the size of an administration. And all of the coaches and support staff on the college teams should have their salaries capped. It's an embarrassment.
Thank you coach Prime for caring enough to provide discipline when it is needed. You have gone from being just one of my all-time favorite athletes to one of my all-time favorite human beings. God bless you.
You Go Prime! Well done and more importantly well said my Brother. 🎉
We need more like him! I've always been a fan, but now I'm a fan for life... Not because of what he's accomplished but because of who he is and the things he's requiring from his players. That's a real Leader.
God bless you, Deion. Keep on what you are saying and doing.
Thank you thank you Coach!
them boys ought to be privileged to have a coach that passionate i wish i had a coach like that when i was playing
Reminds me of Ted Lasso; wants to make these young men the best they can be on and off the field. Respect from a CSU student ✊
Keep pressing, Coach! God bless you, your staff and your players
Hey coach,
You’re the best. May God continue to bless you and keep you in the game. You’re wisdom and motivation is what makes this world better.
Get em Deion! 🙏🏼
If u aint gonna go pro you better graduate with a 2.5 gpa, and parlay that college fame into a real job. Guys do it all the time, hey don5 make it pro, but they get a C and a degree. We all know the saying it aint what u know its who u know, all it takes is a alumni that watched u play to hire u, and your foot is in the door. That is what he means, we've all seen guys dominate in college, and dissappear in the pros.
LMAO 2.5 that's barely even showing up. Way to set goals
Very true about an alumnus who watched you play giving you a shot.
@@gabrieldean9559You realize how hard it is to get a 4.0 playing football? College football is a lot harder than a fulltime job especially when you're playing to stay on a roster every season, and you have to go above and beyond in the classroom too.
Nobody cares about grace you got in college most companies know that an college person can’t even do the job they hired them for lol
@@GoldenboySteroidlol bro it’s twenty hours an week not counting the travel time which means you have eight plus hours per week not counting the 12 to 15 hours you are in class to study lol

Thank you for making this point!!
This is great to hear and I sure hope all get on board with what has been said in this video!!
I retired 18 mo ago and my last five years before retirement was such a loss I productivity from the new generations was heart breaking. The majority feel they are untitled and want everything handed to them.
Mr. Sanders thank you for wanting to teach life’s skills!!
As a college instructor and a sports fan, this is great. 👍
I'm a 43 year old graduate student at an SEC school. I usually wind up with 3-4 college athletes in every class (online). Sometimes football, some baseball, equestrian, softball, whatever... Every one of those kids have been the best students, best classmates, and best leaders with NO exceptions. Their schedules are insanely difficult at times, but they always persevere. It is pretty impressive to witness.
Given that they are student athletes, for the most part, I doubt they are majoring in anything too difficult like chemical engineering. Probably communications or physiology. Not hard to be the best student there. Your use of caps lock makes the statement overtly exaggerated.
@@xhesitase9729 You must have missed the GRADUATE SCHOOL part of my statement. There, I capitalized it for you.

The world is a little bit better having this man as a coach and mentor... Just imagine how awesome it would be if EVERY coach had this same mentality ... Keep it up COACH, your doing GREAT !
Thank you so much Coach Sanders. Young people have never been so confused and wrapped up in a fantasy of what life is really like with no skills or tools of survival as they enter the real world outside of Facebook, Instagram, x etc.
So much respect….
C'mon Buffs. If you're under some life pressure as these are some tough times, please use the support personnel on staff available to catch yourself. They have thought of everything and made it available for you to cross the finish line well. No cap.💯
No more online learning, or not learning. Require they attend class in a person. Not just one but everybody in their position. The team wins together or the team lose together. Easy.
Lol..Deion WON'T do that, because he thinks he and his players, especially his sons are TOO good to be regular students..
This was difficult even as a high school athlete. In college, they have out of state games and daily practices.
they have online classes for a reason bro & its not because they're too good for them
I don't think that's it chief lol
Considering a large portion of the workforce has moved to a work-from-home model, taking online classes is a norm and making people go in-person won't improve anything. That's such an archaic point of view.
"This life they are getting ready to live - you've got to win with your mind." Truth!
Wow. That gave me full respect for him!!!
always spitn facts..neon deion
Deion is a good coach and person! He cares about his players! Tough love!
So many people here are so naive. Deion Sanders cares about one thing and one thing only: Winning for his own sake and ego. Chewing out his players to keep them in class, and therefore in school and on the team is just one way he accomplishes that goal.
he is just so awesome
Spent 20 years working in a community college administration. Went through multiple head coaches during my employment. You could tell the difference campus wide when all head coaches in all the sports adopted this type of attitude. Life is not about athletic ability. It’s the mind that wins in real life.
I was at a college that didn't have football but basketball was the big sport. I had a class that included several basketball players and they were always shuckin' and jiving' during class and you could just tell by the look on the professor's face that they disdained them.
Shuckin’ and jiving…. 🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️ you can do better with your choice of words.
Even when Deion says the right things, casuals will still find a way to b*tch
4-8
Didn’t his own son just a few months ago say he has never attended a class at Colorado? I watched the interview. He’s very much sneering at the idea that classes are even remotely necessary for him to play football.
That’s why even when Prime says very good things, its very hypocritical. His son will get drafted so the advice in this lecture dosnt apply to him. I just don’t know how to take serious a man that says one thing and allows another to take place right in front of him.
@@josephbridges7470 ever heard of online courses? He doesn’t go in person like most high profile students.
Because they just look for any reason to hate. Losers have to hate on the ones doing the work.
@@josephbridges7470 he doesn’t go in person. His classes are online. Don’t be a casual.
I watched him play, but this is the most respect I have ever had for Deion.

THEY NEED TO GROW UP. TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY FOR YOUR ACTIONS.
Fatherless behavior

@@jonr7364you already commented this bro
@@jonr7364 Do you not understand the process of redemption? or simply that he recognized his mistakes and realized that he has to help these young men understand that there is more to life than football, especially if they don’t intend on becoming a coach like him. I’m sure he understands that many of his opportunities outside of ball and celebrity related money grabs are limited because he didn’t take his education seriously. When you realize that you dropped the ball, the best thing you can do is help others not do the same.
Amen so proud of Deion

@@kevindukes8185 He wont answer. How can one not be a fan of Prime?!

I’m not a fan of him because he’s a narcissist. And that’s fine, you can get far in life with that mentality, I just personally don’t like narcissists
@MrShanester117 But without education, you not gonna make it far in life by just skipping classes
You clearly don’t know the definition of narcissist. If he was so selfish why do he care about his players doing well in class.? If your a man don’t use words feminist use lol
Can't wait for the season Mr Sanders thank you
He’s got my respect, now that is a great coach not just football but life.
Amen Deion, thanks to you
I love Coach Prime
Bet does who love you.
Much respect for you Coach Sanders!
My respect for deion just went back up again. Every coach needs to be like this.
Excellent

I Love this Brother ❤️🖤💚
Got to give credit to Deion for showing those young men he cares, our youth need guidance now more than ever.
God bless you Mr. Sanders.
Well said Coach prime you are one hundred percent right
Coach Prime is the best motivator I’ve ever seen.
This man has his head on straight and is leading the next generation to good things. I think I’ll root for his team a little more next season
Now that is a true professional. I appreciate Coach Sanders. 👍
Thank you coach Prime from instilling a sense of responsibility and values in those young men. We need more people like you to lead our youth.
Thanks Coach!
Thank you coach.
I think making them realize that not everyone is going pro is the most important thing
As a college graduate, I'm relieved that Prime is getting on his players who aren't paying attention in class. He'll make men out of them in no time.

@@jonr7364 The coach looks like he's at least 50, that would make his time in college at least 30 years ago. Do you really think people don't change over that amount of time? If he had just graduated and tried to put himself on the high horse, I would agree, but not in this case. Are you the same person you were 5 years ago? Or 10?

“Since your not a great football player…”😂, now I’m a fan
Lol. GULLIBLE
Gotta hear the hard things to grow. Love this
Deion just earned so much respect from me for this! That's a head coach who knows what's up
I've been a fan of Deion since I was a kid growing up in Tallahassee watching him play at Doak. His haters don't understand him. At all. He has a huge heart, and his cockiness is always relegated to the sport. He is actually very humble when it comes to real life. In sport, on the field, there is nothing bigger than Deion. He commands the spotlight and then 9/10 times he delivers. But in life he recognizes that there is something much bigger than him. If I had a son I would be honored for him to play under Coach Prime.
This is what I’ve always wanted to see from coaches. Inspiring kids to be great athletes AND great students/citizens of the community.
If he stays consistent off camera with this approach he's doing right by everyone involved and witnessing.
Hate on 'em if you want but I'd send my kid to a coach who proves this is the way he thinks, and lives it out loud 24/7.
Deion is an absolute legend!
This is why I like Deion's coaching style.
It’s hard to take the streets out of those kids . But he is a true leader maybe he can .
True leader? Lol..He's a narcissistic clown, always looking for attention, just like in this video...
This is exactly why Coach Saban left the game. Its good to see another great coach pick up the reigns and try to turn these kids into men. Good luck Coach Prime!
Reins😑
Sabin could have said and done the same. But he chose not to. Says a lot about the man. Prime has done more for the sport in a couple years than Sabin has done in a lifetime. Sabin is the poster boy for white privilege. Another American teaching point lost due to prejudice and bigotry.
I think Kirby Smart has shared the reins for several years now. Kirby is now in control for best coach this year, and maybe upcoming years.
That’s a great role model, father figure, coach, mentor, that’s a man you want to look up to. Keep on truckin coach prime!
