There are few players who transcend eras of college football, but Deion Sanders was without a doubt one of them. His presence at Florida State was felt long after he left the program. Few cornerbacks could so brashly and completely shut down an opponent’s top receiver as Primetime did. Few athletes were as electrifying. Current Florida State fans who weren’t born until after he left Tallahassee (or even retired the NFL) still know the stories and the swagger behind Neon Deion.
