Coach Prime's daughter Shelomi Sanders defends dad Deion Sanders' SNL skit: "They're kind of getting him wrong. But it was funny though"

Deion Sanders is everywhere, be it social media or late-night TV. Since taking charge of the Colorado Buffaloes, Sanders has been in full media glare. After the most recent Colorado loss, he was turned into a comedy skit on "Saturday Night Live."

The show featured a segment mocking Sanders after the Buffaloes lost 46-43 to Stanford on Friday. Shelomi Sanders offered a perspective on what "Saturday Night Live" got wrong in the impersonation of her father.

Shelomi Sanders liked the "Saturday Night Live" comedy sketch on Deion Sanders

It seems Shelomi Sanders enjoyed the "Saturday Night Live" skit poking fun at Deion Sanders. In a recent interview with the Denver Post, the Colorado Buffaloes basketball player opened up and gave her two bits.

Shelomi said while she liked the skit as it was funny, the writers got Coach Prime's attitude wrong on the late-night show's segment.

"It was good. But then it's like, OK, they're kind of getting him wrong," the Denver Post quoted Shelomi as saying. "The way that they were saying stuff is kind of like, all he cares about is 'the show,' and stuff like that. That's not him, though. Yeah, it was funny, though."

The sketch, featuring Kenan Thompson as Coach Prime, aired in the "Weekend Update" segment of "SNL" after Sanders' Buffaloes blew a 29-point lead against the Cardinal in Week 7. Most fans found it funny, and now it has gotten approval from Coach Prime's daughter.

Shelomi is gearing up to represent the Buffaloes in the upcoming NCAA basketball season and is sweating it out with the team.
