Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys are on the hunt for their next head coach, and Deion Sanders, the legendary ‘Coach Prime,’ seemed like a perfect fit. But reports suggest that the opportunity fizzled out,

After the Cowboys parted ways with former head coach Mike McCarthy, Sanders was a name that was linked to the role, but he was never formally interviewed. Schottenheimer, who along with Robert Saleh and Kellen Moore, was the only other name on the short list of candidates and he was offered an interview.

As Dallas Cowboys fans nervously wait for more updates in the head coaching search, they're largely hoping that someone - specifically Colorado head coach and Cowboys alum Deion Sanders - winds up with the job rather than offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer.
