Ricky Williams says being an "astrologer" would make him better than Deion Sanders

The Longhorns last Heisman winner explains how he would be bigger than "Prime Time"

Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes became one of the biggest stories last year. It was a rollercoaster rush that started on a high and ended on a low. With all the hype and the start of a turnaround in Boulder, there's another former NFL star who believes he can make a bigger impact on college football. 

Ricky Williams went on the record about what he feels he could accomplish, if given the opportunity, and said he could one-up what Coach Prime has achieved at Colorado. It was a wild take he recently generated on the 'Momentum Podcast'.

"I had good coaches, but the best coach I ever had was me," Williams said. "Coaching myself. And I just use the same general techniques that I used to use to get the best out of myself in order to get the best out of the kids that I coached." He went on to say, "It'd be bigger than a "Deion" effect. Even if a smaller school offered me."

Williams then got in touch with the universe and saw the stars align in his head.

"When I say 'better than Deion,' or 'different than Deion,' it's because I'm an astrologer. So, when I'm coaching these kids, I'm not just looking at what I see with my eyes, I'm looking at something deeper."

Either way you look at it, Coach Prime is a trailblazer and a few of the former football greats are wanting to be like him. It's refreshing to see but it's not cut out for everyone. Some of the best players aren't built to lead as a coach. Not to say Williams couldn't thrive in a second career in football, but he'll never be able to generate hype like Sanders.

Williams' journey has taken twists and turns throughout the years. He set the NCAA single-season rushing mark with 2,327 rushing yards in 1998. It was a mark that was previously held by Tony Dorsett and helped propel him to win a Heisman that year. He went on to become the Miami Dolphins all-time leading rusher between two stints after retiring due to failed drug tests. He has since "found" himself as a yoga instructor and media personality.
