Deion Sanders Finalizing Deal To Become Head Coach For Jackson State

Lord have mercy at Tracey Edmonds. Prime is a lucky man. If I was Babyface, I would’ve never let her go. lol, anyways, here’s Deion. He’s going to be a king in Jackson. With Mississippi being full of football talent, I’d expect him to put JSU into play for some of that top tier talent

Mississippi isn’t a horrible place. It’s a state with a lot of systemic racism, but a lot of the people there are some good folks. Don’t know much about Jackson, but I spent most of my teenage and some of my adult life in the state. My parents still live in Biloxi now, and my lil bro just graduated from Miss State, leaving Starkville. I moved from NC as a young kid, thinking I was walking into hell on earth (especially for a black man), but it wasn’t bad at all.

Also, they would have to get through Grambling State each year just to get to the celebration bowl. It wouldn’t matter, because Deion or not, they’d still lose to my alma mater, NC A&T, at the celebration bowl.

 

Anyways, I read he’s bringing a star studded coaching staff with him. Terrell Owens will be one of his coaches.

I said in an earlier post that he’d be a king in Jackson. Well, rumor is, a lot of the folks, especially the JSU alum, aren’t really feeling the move. Think he got on just by name. JSU alum are a tough bunch, and sometimes a bit delusional about their team. If Prime doesn’t have them winning soon, they’ll let him hear about it.

They should be grateful that he even thought about being the coach. 

Did you see Bomani Jones' take on the hire? 

He has been negative with his takes lately.

I guess he's going this route because ESPN keeps scrapping his TV shows.

I love my home in NC, and my home in MS, but I could see myself going back to MS if the opportunity presented itself. I’m like ole boy; I prefer I know where I stand with you. If you’re racist, let me know, so I know to stay away and not put myself in positions to where I’d need to depend on said racist person. It could be quite segregated in a lot of Mississippi, and honestly, I was fine with it at times. All I ask is for fairness. Just give me equality. You don’t have to like me or wanna be near me. With all that said, it wasn’t that bad where I’m from in Mississippi. The Coast isn’t the Mississippi everyone talks about.

after working for some racist business owners that absolutely would not hire women or PoC, i can understand this line of thinking.  you don't want to support someone that doesn't support you, and we had a lot of them as customers.  all i could do was go above and beyond for those customers, and treat them as best as i can, and i got out of there as soon as i could

    • This is factually incorrect. He was a two time Pro Bowler with the Rams and in fact statistically he was better with the Rams in his best season there than he has been with the Lions(could change with this season). Some of his per game stats have creeped into being marginally better with the Lions but there have not been dramatic differences in his play, actually. The biggest reason that McVay and he ended up splitting was McVay didn't think he could win a title with Goff. TBH.....so far he was 100% correct. Stafford almost immediately won them a SB and Goff in a historic run was about 70% of the reason the Lions faltered in the NFC championship game. He missed critical throws all over the first half and throughout the second half that he normally wouldn't. He choked. So, until Goff actually does win a SB...McVay has been right.
    • they have the best defense they've had in a long time...probably the best in the reid/mahommes era.  but i think they are probably the most beatable they've been in a while as well. record doesn't exactly bear that out, but they just don't look as strong on offense as they usually do. lots of reasons for that, like trying to build chemistry with newer receivers, but right now they just aren't as frightening as they typically are. i mean they'll probably win tomorrow, but i don't see them as the strongest team in the AFC right now. 
    • He will likely remain unsigned the remainder of this season(barring someone being in a pure QB panic AND making poor decisions) largely due to the cost. I do think he will get multiple offers to be a backup QB and perhaps a couple to potentially start this offseason.  I will continue to beat the same horse over and over.....he should go to a successful team with an established starter. If I were him, go to somewhere like SF, LAR, etc. Somewhere with a successful QB coach and brilliant offensive mind and ALSO a set situation at QB. Ride the pine and adjust for a year or two. Chill and be around better culture. I would suggest the same for Bryce but he will be limited to wherever we can trade him.
