Deion Sanders Sends a New Message to Nick Saban

Jackson State head coach Deion Sanders spoke out against the report that he stormed out of SWAC Media Day after being called by his first name

What a crazy week for college football and NIL deals.

Yesterday we saw Texas A&M Head coach Jimbo Fisher aggressively respond to Alabama Head Coach Nick Saban’s comments from this week. Later in the day, Jackson State coach Deion Sanders added this.

“I haven’t talked to Coach Saban. I’m sure he’s tried to call. We need to talk publicly — not privately. What you said was public. That doesn’t require a conversation. Let’s talk publicly and let everybody hear the conversation. You can’t do that publicly and call privately. “

“No, no, no. I still love him,” Sanders said. “I admire him. I respect him. He’s the magna cum laude of college football and that’s what it’s going to be because he’s earned that. But he took a left when he should’ve stayed right. I’m sure he’ll get back on course. I ain’t tripping.”

 

Deion’s son had this response to it all.

Deion Sanders seems to be the voice of reason in this situation.

What a time to be alive!
