Deion Sanders‘ Emmy Award-nominated docuseries Coach Prime was renewed for a second season on Amazon‘s Prime Video Sports, the new Colorado football coach announced Wednesday on Pat McAfee‘s podcast.

Just like Season 1, which went behind the scenes chronicling Sanders coaching at Jackson State, including the dynamic with his sons Shedeur and Shilo, the second season currently in production will follow Coach Prime during his inaugural season at Colorado, taking viewers on the field and in the locker room as the Buffaloes look to bounce back in the Pac-12.
