Deion “Midas Touch” Sanders is purely out here killin’ the game.

When Deion Sanders announced he was leaving Jackson State University for his first FBS head coaching job with the Colorado Buffaloes, the school immediately became a top destination for recruits, including several ranked as five-stars.

While at Jackson State in 2022, Sanders managed to land the No. 1 recruit in the nation — Travis Hunter — flipping him from his alma mater of Florida State University.

Well, “Prime Time” has done it again, this time to a rival of the Seminoles in the University of Miami.

Cormani McClain, who is listed as the No. 1 cornerback in the Class of 2023, flipped from the Miami Hurricanes to Colorado — becoming the second five-star recruit for Deion as the head coach of Colorado.

Sanders landed his first five-star recruit, Winston Watkins, in Dec. 2022 as a part of Colorado’s 2025 class.

Deion Sanders is one of the coolest mother(bleepers) ever, man.

And he’s now got me over here bumpin’ Lil Flip’s “Game Over” — dope ass song.

Yeah, Mr. Midas Touch pulled this off against my Miami Hurricanes, but I don’t care.

Deion can take 1,000 recruits from both the Canes and the University of Michigan and I wouldn’t give a damn, that’s just how cool this guy is. I love Deion Sanders, always have and always will.

Seriously, how can you not like the guy? (RELATED: The NFL Playoffs Ratchet Up With Divisional Round. Here’s Everything You Need To Know)

This man is the perfect representation of the American dream on steroids. Everything the man touches turns to gold. He dominated several sports in his playing days at each the high school, college and professional levels, and then becomes a college football head coach, instantly delivering undefeated seasons and No. 1 recruits. And not to mention the man is a genius on the television screen.

This dude is a (bleeping) legend. Much love, Deion.
