SWAC Media Day: Deion Sanders 

"It's amazing that his road map hasn't been a priority at HBCU athletics in the past." Why is it amazing? When God gives you a vision, He has already given you the tools to see it thru. Your tools are not just experience and Education, but the people God allowed to cross your path. If the men before Coach had a vision, it was not from God. Why? They did not have the tools to see it thru.

He maybe a better coach and innovador than he was a player and that a big ass statement because he was greatest that ever stepped on the field

HBCUs shouldn’t even be around and when Deion leaves nobody will care

@Barry Brown you making it a race thing tho he didn’t mention anything about discrimination.

@Barry Brown the thing is what’s wrong with him push black kids, he’s a black man. Thats the exact type of mentor they need, why should he be ashamed for pushing the culture forward.

💯💯💯👍🏾

Great Interview

Travis is certainly an exceptional football player, but I can't say that he is one of the greatest "athletes" I have ever seen. He has a lot of positives as a player, but he also has some visible weaknesses. Despite his talent, he is a freshman and there is a learning curve. In my opinion, he is not a natural press man corner. He is more of a zone coverage react to the ball player. While he may be fast, he does not have blazing speed. When receivers gain separation, he has a tendency to reach or grab in order to maintain contact. He will be called for that by already overzealous SWAC officials. For the reasons mentioned, I think he would be an excellent free safety. He would be able to face the QB and use his ball reaction skills to routinely swat or pick off passes. I think he would shine playing corner in a zone scheme as well. However, we know that at the end of the day Coach Prime and Coach Thurman are calling the shots, and they have confidence in their defensive scheme and in Travis' ability in man coverage.

Definitely allowed

@@AcePlaya4ever Actually, it's not allowed after 2 years. A player must be 3 years removed from high school. This means that the earliest he can enter the draft is his true junior year or as a redshirt sophomore. We know that he is not going to be redshirted, so he will have to wait until at least his junior year.

It sucks he’s not going to get drafted now

@@The_king567 dude the guys in the pros would chew him up and destroy him. Let the kid LEARN how the NEXT level of the game is....A journey of 1000 miles starts with the first step young grasshopper.

Y

Shoot, HBCU football in general. He has a vision and hopefully the other coaches/schools follow.

@@adeenbenyasharal5412 HBCU football is awful and always will be

@@adeenbenyasharal5412 definitely.

@@jeffreywhitlock4882 Aside from Bob Hayes I'll admit I didn't know about the rich history of HBCU athletics (football) until coach prime came along. Many of the greatest athletes ever, came from HBCU's. Previously mentioned the late greats Bob Hayes, Walter Payton, Steve McNair, as well as Jerry Rice, to name a few.

@Barry Brown he’s trustworthy

Nobody 🙏🏿and then u have to get home

Can you add ? Can you multiply. Winning!!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 We are Cheering for all connected. It’s higher than JSU You need some of this inspiration and apply to your life!! Have a happy life. Geaux Deion, Coaching Staff, JSU TEAMS, Students and all Supporters

He hasn’t done anything when he leaves nobody will care as they should

@@The_king567you're trolling smh.

@@adeenbenyasharal5412 I’m telling the truth

@@The_king567 lol your own little truth (lie).

@@adeenbenyasharal5412 nope Everyones

@Barry Brown who said anything about race??

@Barry Brown He’s talking about people that’s in charge of some institutions are complacent need think out side of the box for institutions too grow…. So where race coming from lol

@Barry Brown Speak or go after a white guy.. what you mean, players??

@UC1w37t6Mg2I2bE2chpiX4iA No!! He’s trying level playing field if it’s about race why his staff diverse lol but I understand you

I think you meant "Coach Prime", or "Coach Sanders". He has earned his title so stop calling the man by his first name. You don't know him like that! It's like going to a doc's office and calling him Jason. . . No for real though. Stop it! 😁

How has he raised the bar? His celebrity has attracted people, but it’s disturbing how three NFL people get hired at HBCU institutions and they want to hire white people in all the big money positions. If Black coaches can’t get a start in college at an HBCU, God damn! To make matters worst they want to hire rich white people who have had careers. I’m talking about Fisher at TSU, Art. Briles at Grambling, & Mike Zimmer at JSU. Stay woke !

He doesn't just have an ankle sprain; he has a high ankle sprain. If you know anything about high ankle sprains, then you know that they can be tricky. They take longer to heal than a lower ankle sprain. They are often reoccurring. In fact, Travis had a similar injury in high school, which kept him out for half his senior season. As a two-way player, this could be a problem.

The people not even giving back to their alma mater though

Money is tight. People want more than a feel good return

Nawl he sounds like coach Robinson. F Saban.

He's sound like Coach Prime the person doing the interview he's not coached with Saban he don't have to learn from him let him do it the way he is doing it... Go Tigers

He does sound more and more like someone who's actually won national titles.

@@thepac12andbig10suck,Coach Prime has won national titles as a player and has learned from professional coaches he's been coached by! Plus he knows what's needed to get to that next level.... Each One...Teach One philosophy! Not Coach Saban, all Prime.

@@eunyceeheath3241 Coach Prime never won a national title as a player at Florida State. But he does learn from previous coaches and current ones. From Bowden, to Jimmy Johnson, and even college greats like Nick Saban

Go Bulldogs

But us true sports fans been saying that. He knocked it out the box when he said it. It 🐝 in those front offices especially about the accountability of money

@Barry Brown how?

He has celebrity status! Coach Prime has not invented the wheel. One of the coldest lessons I’ve ever learned was my parents were right. No one has been sitting on their ass not trying to raise money. Coach Prime has been rich for over 30 years. He doesn’t have the same struggles

@Barry Brown In what way? Explain.

@Barry Brown Not sure what you're talking about, let's end this conversation have a good day sir.

This didn't age well. The University look crazy but Prime gonna be alright

@@lorenzo5811 true

You late buddy. JSU already in the top 6 (with a visit) from 4 star OT Miles McVay from East St Louis

Maybe

y’all better go then lol

It’s Sad How they didn’t get along .Pilar had a lot with that . Shilo Assaulted that Man and Deion Tried to Cover it up . I Thought the man was money hungry but he really didn’t do anything wrong he was the victim. Deion Stole the surveillance videos and still lost the case . Wrong is Wrong . I Love Jackson state . Shilo Might not get drafted because he assaulted that man . If he does he will go low in the Draft
