Nancy Lieberman isn’t one to mince words. The 1984 WABA champion and basketball legend knows a victory when she sees one, and her latest shoutout is aimed at none other than Deion “Coach Prime” Sanders. This time, it’s not about a game-winning play or a legendary highlight reel. Nope, it’s about a jaw-dropping private jet that screams luxury louder than a stadium packed with Buffaloes fans.
Coach Prime’s Sky-High Statement
Sanders, the NFL Hall of Famer turned Colorado Buffaloes head coach, recently unveiled his newest flex: a $45 million private jet. And it’s not just a plane; it’s a flying cathedral of opulence. From plush leather seats to the kind of ambient lighting that would make even the most stoic defensive lineman shed a tear, it’s clear that Coach Prime’s travel game is unmatched.
Taking to Instagram, Sanders posted pictures of the plane’s immaculate interior, accompanied by a caption that oozed gratitude and excitement:
“I can’t wait until y’all see this plane! Wow God is good! WOW WOW WOW! Thank u to all that made this happen for our young men & woman. #CoachPrime”
Among the flood of comments praising the coach’s latest addition to his empire, one response stood out. Basketball royalty Nancy Lieberman chimed in with a succinct but powerful endorsement:
“You deserve the best. Get yoself a W.”
Nancy Lieberman: The Godmother of High Praise
Lieberman isn’t just any sports figure—she’s a walking, talking highlight reel of achievements. From dominating the hardwood in her playing days to making waves as a coach and commentator, she’s earned her spot in the pantheon of sports legends.
This year, Lieberman has been in the spotlight for more than just her accolades. She recently became a central figure in a heated debate involving Caitlin Clark, the rising star of women’s basketball. Lieberman stepped in to set the record straight when three-time WNBA MVP Sheryl Swoopes claimed Clark’s record-setting NCAA performances were inflated by “40 shots a game.” Spoiler alert: Clark’s actual shot average is half that.
Lieberman’s response to the controversy? A phone call to Swoopes and a dose of tough love. “Facts matter,” she told Stephen A. Smith during his podcast, putting the issue to bed—well, almost. Swoopes fired back on X (formerly Twitter), and the basketball world collectively grabbed its popcorn.
What’s Next for Coach Prime and the Buffaloes?
While Lieberman and Swoopes duke it out over stats, Coach Prime is too busy cruising at 35,000 feet in his luxury jet to worry about terrestrial squabbles. With the Buffaloes set to take the college football season by storm, Sanders has ensured that his players travel in style, setting the tone for what he hopes will be a championship-caliber campaign.
So, whether you’re Team Lieberman or Team Swoopes, one thing’s for sure: Coach Prime is flying high—literally and figuratively. And if Nancy Lieberman tells you to “get yoself a W,” you better believe the man is taking her advice.
Because, let’s face it: you don’t need a scoreboard to see who’s winning this season.
