Deion Sanders’ sons, Shilo and Shedeur, are making a lot of money through Name, Image and Likeness. The two Colorado stars, and their older brother Deion Jr. (who goes by Bucky), took the opportunity to do something nice for their dad by buying him a late Christmas present.
They purchased him a house. Literally.
And it’s not like it’s a one-bedroom condo. It’s a full-blown mansion!
The home features a wine cellar, in-home movie theater, massage room, workout room, basketball court, and an outdoor pool. That doesn’t even include the little details, like the chandeliers, or the incredible 360-degree mountain views.
It almost provokes a tear. Look at that. It’s one thing to look at the mountains, it’s another thing to be in the mountains. We’re in them!

Of course, Coach Prime wouldn’t live somewhere that doesn’t also include a place to fish! There is lake located not too far from the backyard.
The Sanders family took a tour of their future residence earlier this week. Everybody was impressed!
It is unclear as to how the finances are going to shake out, but Shilo, Shedeur and Bucky are involved in the purchase. Deion Sanders said that they are “chipping in trying to help him.”
Perhaps his sons are covering a portion of the downpayment. Perhaps they are covering the whole thing, or paying cash to buy it outright. We don’t know.
Either way, their dad is extremely grateful. This upcoming season will be the last year that they are all together before Shilo and Shedeur head off to the NFL so it was a bittersweet moment.
For ya’ll three to want to put it together… So y’all make sure I’m straight when you’re gone is unbelievable.

Regardless of who is paying for what, the house is a direct reflection of the NIL era. Shilo and Shedeur Sanders are two of the most marketable athletes in college sports right now. Their brands are huge and they have both profited from their Names, Images and Likenesses in a big way— to the point that they can buy their dad a house!
