Deion Sanders says he is too old school to coach in the NFL

Deion Sanders has completely changed the way college coaches look at their teams. I mean he basically cut his entire team and started fresh. He could not do that with an NFL team. He knows that, and when he was asked by Sports Illustrated if he had any desire to coach at the NFL level, he said he is too old school to coach in the NFL.

I don’t have any desire or ambition to coach in the NFL,” Sanders told SI.com. “I have a problem with men getting their checks and not doing their jobs. I would be too tough as a coach in the NFL because I still have those old-school attributes.”

So they asked Coach Prime if he would serve as an assistant and while he did that in high school, he quickly said he will never do that again.

“I’m not an assistant coach. That is not me,” Sanders said. “I am a head coach.”

What do you think? Could Coach Prime be a good football coach in the NFL? Maybe holding players accountable would produce better results.
