Deion Sanders Expects Teenage Pregnancy to Decrease by Coaching Football at Jackson State

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

Deion Sanders is ready to put his magic touch on the men he’ll coach at Jackson State. The former NFL superstar is all geared up for his first college coaching gig, and he’s ready to set the tone. In doing so, he’ll make everything better, and change the lives of everyone involved.

“I want these young men to be professionals,” Sanders said. “They can be great fathers, they can be community leaders, they can be great sons, they can be whatever they desire to be…. I want these young men to affect change. When a kid comes out of JSU and matriculates out of our program, I want you to know he’s there. He doesn’t even have to open his mouth. Just the way he carries himself — the way he rolls back his shoulders, the way he carries his head, the way he’s articulating himself. When he walks in, the temperature should immediately go from 74 to 72, 73. He should cool the whole situation.”

“I want to provoke change in every aspect of that community,” he continued. “I expect the crime rate to go down, my brother. I expect teenage pregnancy to decrease. I expect unity. I expect the white, the Black, the Hispanic, the Asian, everyone to see each other at a game and strike up conversations they wouldn’t normally have.”

Watch below:

Deion Sanders era at Jackson State should be electric.

Only Deion could get away with making all these proclamations, and he definitely has the Swag to pull it off.
