Jackson State expected to hire Deion Sanders as football coach

[xfactor]

But why is that a problem?

nep·o·tism
/ˈnepəˌtizəm/
(noun)
the practice among those with power or influence of favoring relatives or friends, especially by giving them jobs.

This happens in all aspect of life. Especially coaching and executive jobs. White people do it all the time. Hell, it's in the "how to be a jew" handbook.

The big difference in this situation is that JSU is benefiting much more than Deon and his son. JSU has had so much national network TV time because of Deon. Think about this, Troy Akman showd up to watch an HBCU game from the sidelines. Geesh, there are so many facets of positive butterfly effect that happened because of that one gesture. All because of Deon.

Lastly, I am a father of 2 boys, with another arriving in May. I would do whatever I could to help my children get ahead in life. Why wouldn't Deon do the same for his children? Fathers like Deon, Lavar, and many other positive black men are needed and hopefully they inspire other black fathers to do the same in sports, education, science, music, etc.

The Neanderthals practice nepotism more than anyone, while lacking more talent than anyone but if we do it, it is a problem? they even practice it in politics, a public entity.

I don’t care if Deion’s son is a 3rd string QB, if he gets a chance because of his dad, oh well.

Grambling State had not lost to Jackson State since 2012. Their last home loss was in 2015. That was until today....

Absolutely unreal ending for Deion and Jackson State. They came into today as 10.5 point underdogs and won straight up.

Barstool covering this with his involvement with them is ummmm.....interesting

Your leg holding ass don't know shit about sports.

 

[Tito_Jackson]

It says a lot that Jackson State basically had to stack the deck to beat Grambling and even then they won only by 3 fucking points.

Just remember this recruiting class that he got this year ain’t playing.

Exactly!!! We haven't even seen the full Deion Sanders effect yet. This year's team success is 100% coaching. Just think about how many top tier kids are now looking at JSU because of these past couple of weeks. Although I attended another HBCU, I have to salute JSU, they are about to be a lopsided division powerhouse.

For those who remember when Marshall was Division II, I think we are about to see this again with JSU.

He is going to have the SWAC looking like the 90s.

 

[Tito_Jackson]

Rex Ryan showing up to JSU. You don't have to like Deion, but you can not deny what he is doing.

 

[TheBigOne]

They're fun to watch. Is this a turning point in HBCU sports where pros step in and coach and mentor these kids?

And 9 years.

A lot can change but J State ain't even the best SWAC Team in the Sip. It is feeling like the early 90s in SWAC. I can't wait to see Glass play.

Yeah, the hated Alcorn Braves.

 

[keith6]

They have no run defense at all.

 

[Empire]

Barstool covering this with his involvement with them is ummmm.....interesting

What's wrong with it?

 

[Quek9]

Yeah, the hated Alcorn Braves.

I hate their Samoan recruiting asses too. They have had our number the last few years.

 

[Quek9]

Why not Southern?

I fucks with Big Worm. We are lucky to have him. I hope health and prosperity continues to follow him and my Jaguars.

 

[Don Coreleone]

Them boys better start winning. I don't think Prime is much on losing.

 

[Quek9]

He overvalued himself but undervalued the SWAC. He is learning some hard lessons now but I think JState is going to be a beast this fall. We are finally back to having NFL talent come through the conference.

 

[DC_Dude]

Man that shit was beautiful to see them play on ESPN yesterday....

I will say southern looked good asf...Hope ESPN continues showing there games on the weekends, even if it's EPSN 2.....

I agree and I hope NBC brings back the Bayou Classic to the real NBC.

Coaching ability aside, I wouldn’t start putting a microscope on Prime until we get to the fall and see what he can do with his own class of recruits and the boys who transferred there because he was coming. I watched the Overtime SZN series with him and his son on YouTube and he seems to know what he doing on the sidelines although college level is going to be a different beast.

Deion Sanders apologizes to JSU, former football greats Lem Barney, Robert Brazile, Jimmy Smith after loss to Southern
Joshua Capers
Mississippi Clarion Ledger


Jackson State football coach Deion Sanders expects the best from his team every time it takes the field.

He didn’t get anywhere near that in the Tigers' 34-14 loss to rival Southern, however. The Tigers (3-2, 2-1 SWAC) gave up 30 points for the second game in a row while scoring a season-low 14.

The team that looked poised to take the Southwestern Athletic Conference by storm regressed in every facet of the game. So lackluster was Jackson State’s performance on Saturday at Mississippi Veterans Memorial Stadium that Coach Prime felt the need to apologize.

With sincerity laced in every word, the first-year head coach expressed his regret to all alumni, former greats and NFL Hall of Famers alike, that support and encourage him since he arrived in Jackson.

“I want to apologize to all the alumni, especially guys like Jimmy Smith,” Sanders said. “I text back and forth with Lem Barney and Robert Brazile, and those guys encourage me and I encourage them every week. I’m apologizing for that.”​

To put who those guys are into context, Smith compiled 110 receptions, 2,073 yards and 16 touchdowns and was named to the JSU All-Century Team in 2011. He played in the NFL for 13 years and finished his career with 862 receptions, 12,287 receiving yards and 67 touchdowns.

Barney, an NFL Hall of Famer, was a three-time All-SWAC selection and finished his time at JSU with 26 interceptions. He was selected by the Detroit Lions in the second round of the draft and went on to play for 10 years. Barney became the fifth cornerback elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Brazille was a consensus All-American while at JSU, and in 1974, he set the school record for solo tackles with 129. He also led the SWAC in interceptions that year. The Pro Football Hall of Famer was also named First-Team All-SWAC his senior season.

Sanders wanted to make sure all of the Jackson State alumni knew such performances would not be the norm moving forward.

“That’s just not who we are,” Sanders said. “I promise you that’s not who we are, and that’s not who we are going to be by any means.”​
