Deion Sanders: Sports Illustrated's 2023 Sportsperson of the Year

Deion Sanders, the head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes, has been named Sports Illustrated's Sportsperson of the Year. In his first season, Sanders revitalized the football program, bringing in sellout crowds, media attention, and progress on the field. Despite a roller-coaster season that ended with a 4-8 record, Sanders' unconventional approach, including roster overhauls and reliance on the transfer portal, proved successful. This marks the seventh time Sanders has appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated, solidifying his status as a transformative figure in college sports.
