- NCAA. Deion Sanders rides Shedeur Sanders hype to secure a record transfer portal haul for Colorado's new era
In the Sanders family, love is loud, competitive, and honest.
That was on full display when Shilo Sanders roasted his younger sister Shelomi with the jab, "Your eyelashes stick out five yards!", a light-hearted comeback during a classic sibling standoff. The exchange came after Shelomi voiced her frustration to their father, NFL legend and Colorado head coach Deion "Coach Prime" Sanders, about always being ranked below her brother.
Yes, you read right, ranked.Their father has a unique parenting tradition: he ranks his five children based on behavior, performance, and affection. He doesn't shy away from making it public.
In fact, a compilation video of these rankings recently went viral, reigniting the family's sibling rivalry.
The video that describes the Sanders family the best
In one moment from the video, Shelomi tried to make her case for a higher ranking by throwing Shilo under the bus. But Deion, always the diplomat, reassured her with a smooth "you'd be ranked number one, baby", showing his well-known and appreaciated signature balance of honesty and affection.
Shilo, unfazed, used humor as his defense mechanism. Instead of debating the rankings, he turned the moment into a roast session, poking fun at his sister's lashes and cracking jokes that captured the family's playful spirit.
The back-and-forth isn't just for laughs; it reveals the deeper dynamic within the Sanders household. Deion's rankings may seem outrageous, but they serve as a motivator-and a mirror. He's raised his kids in an environment that values effort, character, and ability. In one telling quote, he said, "Everybody's got a kid they'd give the credit card to... and one who left the kitchen messy-you know who did it." For Coach Prime, parenting is about keeping it real.
Shilo and Shelomi know the game
Siblings picking on each other may seem petty, but in this family, it's part of the glue. The teasing, the rivalries, the constant push to outdo one another... all of it builds resilience, bonds, and drive. Whether it's Shilo reacting to being outranked or Shelomi fighting for her spot, they're all engaged in a never-ending contest that brings them closer, even in competition.
In the Sanders home, family love doesn't just show up in hugs-it shows up in jokes, rankings, and the relentless drive to be number one.
