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

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
