Tony Kornheiser wants Deion Sanders to coach Auburn 👀 | PTI 

They're trying to Sabatoge the HBCU's so the top programs don't lose current and future recruits or have to compete in the future when the talent starts to level out. Planting this seed and taking him now prevents momentum and keeps the status quo.

Deion is at the right school. I hope he stays for a long time and mentors the new generation of student athletes and coaches.

Keep him at JSU! Bring ALL OUR athletes back to all HBCUs

he won't go for it. he's coaching specifically at an HBCU to make a statement

Wait a Minute, Tony K wants Deion Sanders to coach a PWI college instead of developing a HBCU, who's suprised

He is way more impactful where he is so stop that Deion to Auburn mess…

I hope not…I hope he builds up the hbcu

My man stay in the news. HBCU all day!!! Don’t get caught up in all the foolishness Prime. You been doing legendary stuff your entire life. Be a HBCU legend as well. 😊

He not leaving JSU. His son Shilo transferred from S Carolina to play for him so that doesn't make any sense. He definitely won't do it for money.

Dieon needs to stay right where he is

Here we go again. He’s been at JSU truly 2 years, and half of America is trying to pull him away. HBCUs deserve the Best!!

Noooo keep making history with jsu those players will be hurt if he leaves them

ESPN trying to get him to turn his back on Jackson state so bad ‼️‼️ they want him to be the next hire for every coaching vacancy currently ‼️‼️ but before he went to Jackson state none would have even look his way 🤦🏽‍♂️‼️

I agree. As much as I'd love for Primetime to come to our D1 school. He's doing great things and good influence on the kids at JSU.

PWIs didn't want him so why should he leave an HBCU for them?

Deion's calling & purpose is different..

Stay at JSU and develop that program and those young men. HBCUs need coaches like Deion, and I want to see more talented black players go to HBCUs. Wilbon is right - Deion doesn't NEED to do anything.

ESPN and other sport mainstream media is really trying to create this narrative that Coach Prime is going leave JSU for a P5 (more specifically the SEC) this year. If anyone has paid attention to the interviews that Coach Prime has done the last 2 years, you would see that he wants to a create unique legacy all his own as a coach, while uplifting JSU and HBCUs as a whole. He wants to lead this charge and be the change agent for HBCUs needs. I seriously don't believe that Coach Prime will forgo the current opportunity/challenge of this magnitude in giving HBCU football the exposure it desperately needs for more money. This man isnt like these coaches that like to cut and run on a program for more money somewhere else, it truly about the mission with Coach Prime.

DEION NEEDS TO STAY PUT UNTIL HE GARNERS TEN MILLION A YEAR that a power 5 is willing to pay

We are the talent…stay right there Deion.. Bring the Talent

They just don’t get it

Stay where you at Deion.

I totally agree with Michael. Represent the HBCU’s. Would love to see HBCU’s blow up with top talent

I’m from jackson & trust me Deion not leaving he love that school & the school love him

Coach Prime would tell these guys, I don't look down the street. I'm concentrating on dominating the next game. And what was Alabama State thinking to schedule us for Home Coming.

Nice move if he came to Auburn and that’s real talk. You can’t get any higher as a coach when you’re coaching in the SEC! But with all due respect he’s building a nice tradition at Jackson State! Wished he had a twin… that way he could have one at Auburn and one at JSU!😂🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈

Please stay and build that HBCU FAMILY and make them five star recruits shun those big programs and come back to HBCUs and build their programs.

Stay at Jackson St be the Gonzaga basketball of football

Thank you Wilbon!!!!

Deions whole passion and plan is to fight for and raise the level of HBCUs. abandoning that plan this early doesn't make sense and it'll make him 2 faced

Coach Prime isn’t going anywhere. He has to much invested in the program, all three of his kids go there.

Praying for Deion .. AU needs you so much

Remember those power conference schools are always the first to fire a coach QUICK if things don't go as planned with a winning record. HBCUs will stick with a coach as they become a part of the respective community that the school is located in and give the coach a chance if they happen to have a not so good season.

That basically seemed as if the WHITE MAN, if you TRULY Listened, was putting HBCU Football down saying it was nothing compared to these BIG TIME College Programs. Eddie George is the Head Coach at Tennessee State, Michael Strahan went to an HBCU School along with A LOT of GOLD JACKET HALL OF FAMERS like Deacon Jones. There's A LOT of HBCU Players in the NFL today. They might not get the same Coverage as these BIG TIME Schools but they put out the Players...

It’s not just about x/o. He wants to build black young men and make them successful on and off the field.

ESPN need to stop this. Deion Sanders not going nowhere he's staying at the HBCU.

Yes!! Let’s bring the athletes back to HBCU’s….money chases the talented.

Before coming to JSU, Deion spent 3 years as the offensive coordinator (not the head coach) of a private Christian school in Cedar Hill, Texas because that's where his two sons were playing. Every year Trinity Christian School won the state championship in their division under his coaching. His kids chose Jackson State and Deion ends up as head coach. You can bank on this - Deion will NOT leave JSU until his sons finish their college career. His number one dedication is to his sons and their careers. After his sons are gone you MIGHT see him move elsewhere but not until then. I would also bet that if he gets a chance to coach a pro team that has Shedeur as their QB he will take it.

Coach Sanders at Au could be BRUTAL. Coach knows people to hire.

Deion isn’t going anywhere. He is where he is because he sees the biggest picture. It’s not about money to him. He’s literally changing the lives of so many people by being in Jackson, Mississippi. Coach Prime, his players AND his children are all literally making history together.

Respect to wilbon didn't fall for the bait

As an Auburn fan I love the idea but I’m good on it. Keep him where he is

I'm an Auburn fan and would love to have Primetime at Auburn. At this point if Auburn doesn't offer him, I think I'll just root for him wherever he ends up, because Auburn probably will be irrelevant after firing the next coach that fails.

Who cares what you want Tony....Coach Prime is still on his mission Sir...OK Bye

Deion is a man of principle and sheer will ….so no

He don't need the money. Those old white men at those schools cannot deal with his swag

I want him to bring JCU into the top 10 !

They’re sure trying to get Deion out of there! I hope he stays and builds something where he is! His son is there and doing very well! Everything he wants, is right where he is. I hope that he can see that.

Screw the SEC. I hope more top recruits go to Historically Black College Universities. (HBCU)

I’m a big SEC fan but I love how coach prime is developing an HBCU to be elite. I think he should stay at JSU and would like to see him compete against a big team

JSU is also bringing in Revenue to the city of Jackson Miss . Bro. Sanders is a Positive Role. Model for our young bros and sistas

He's not coaching at Auburn. Lord help the poor fella who does.

Hopefully so the Southern heritage was a tradition in Memphis

Holding accountable hbcu leadership and ncaa corporate body is a high bar deion is making waves and setting his g.o.a.t. debate. Wilson perfect answer to an awesome segment. If he raises the profile and helps level the

Jackson state will compete for a national championship in next two years

I'm white and I love watching HBCU football but I don't blame the guy if he wants to go be a power 5 guy but if he stays his respect level would go thru the roof turn down big money programs and all its spot lights and national coverage wow that would be epic no matter what he decides to do I have much respect for him and wish him nothing but the best

I hope that he stays at JSU.

Thank you For saying he should stay at JSU 🐅 Wilborn 👊

Stand your ground, Prime. As much as I’d love you coming to AU, I think you’re where God wants you and can use you. Blessings.

Of course y’all want him to sell out

This is tough, because on 1 hand, Deion is on a fast track to make Jackson State the Alabama of HBCU's/1-AA for as long as he stays there, which could be another 15 years at least!! The exposure and money he's generating for Jackson State, the SWAC and HBCU's is enormous, he's really elevating and helping the race!! The ONLY negative is, at Jackson State he's not going to be able to regularly sign the 5-star recruits that he would be able to if he coached at big-time White/PWI school like Auburn or Georgia Tech. I think that may start to bother him at some point regardless of how much success he has at Jackson State. I'm assuming a guy like Deion who played in the NFL and MLB at the exact same time(on the exact same day a few times) will want the opportunity to recruit and sign the best of the best players(like he was) and that probably won't happen at Jackson State. He did get highly rated 5-star recruit Travis Hunter to sign with Jackson State over the BCS schools, but how often can he do that? The overwhelming majority of the 4 and 5 star players are going to sign with the BCS conferences like the SEC, Big 10, Big 12, ACC etc. because of the facilities and TV exposure, and being programmed to believe that HBCU's are not up to par.

I tell you what, in the last years of a Phenomenal Coach, Eddie Robinson. They were needing money to make their lockerrooms and equipment up to date, because they weren't. I'm a huge Auburn guy, and I'd love to see Deion come to the tuffest division in the toughest Conference in Football. No doubt about that, love to see him turn Auburn around, and it be because of him. Warrrr 🔥 Eagle! WDE~FAM!!!🦅🔥 🦅

I hope he stay at Jackson State. At Auburn he can't be himself and the people there will make it hard for him that supports the team. He has a great thing going on at Jackson State and in due time the pay will come. He's really enjoying himself now.

Michael Wilbon 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🔥🔥

I think Coach Prime would leave JSU in a heart beat if the head coaching position came avsilable at Florida State.

Leave sanders alone. The people in Jackson love having him and he's changing that place in a positive way. Stop messing w coach prime he is where he wants to be.

Jackson State !!!!!!!!

JSU is America's Team that's has gone global

These “Big Name” colleges wanting him now just proves to me that they didn’t think that Coach Deion would turn a JSU into a power house the way he did. It also tells me they think this man is a fool. Could he leave JSU yes he could, but I don’t think he would leave all of his kids behind(related or not related) for more money. These young Kings look up to him, and see him as a father figure, and a man of integrity he would not want to show them any thing different.

Deon said it best. You keep trying to promote him based on what he's doing at the HBCU level but you're not promoting his players based that same criteria. In fact you're trying to use it against them. Explain to me what's going on here?

He just said yesterday on Earn Your Leisure's episode that he is not leaving

Prime time

How come there aren't more former athletes that want to get into coaching dont go to HBCs?????? Why dont you ask that question Wilbon? Now they want the big jobs right away without putting in the time.

I hope he goes where he wants to go. He does not owe anyone anything as far as his life and employment.

Yessssss Mike

Playing field and creates a playback that can be followed the future is very bright. Go Primetime

Tony....You forgot.....HE HAS HIS KIDS

why would leave his job to coach auburn?

The man is doing God’s work at JSU; he’s on a mission!

Deion is where he wants to be. He is getting more publicity doing what Deion does best. Staying in the media. The legacy he's creating is not just for JSU, but for HBCU in general.

If that Deion come to ATLANTA mannnnnnn… But don’t forget Deion have goals as wells we don’t know his goals. Let that man grow if he wants too

You see they fired Mr. Herman Edward's at Arizona State and he had a winning record.We are seeing a legend in making at HBCU. JSU vs. BCU. at Jaguars Stadium in Jacksonville in a few. Go Wildcats.

I like how they only covered him when it was time to transfer too one of them white schoolsb

The SEC would chew primetime up and spit him out. Would be an awful hire for AU that would set them back even further.

Expectations are too high at Auburn. Colorado gives him the opportunity to fail a little.

This is so messed up because if deion Sanders wanted a top tier college job he could have got it from the jump, he's coaching for what he believes in his heart and you know that

I had no idea ESPN was a far right organization before looking at all the comments lol

He should stay for sure, let him support the program/school he wants to support.

Deion did graduate from a HBCU in Talledega college

I’ve been saying that

Prime not leaving JSU. He gon bring it to the FBS

I wanted Deion to coach Miami (Fla) Hurricanes But Deion Neon is at the right school. Go Jackson State

As a Auburn fan , i like what coach prime doing at Jackson State, Find the best coach available .

Coach PRIME, is on a mission from God, showing Mississippi and JSU, you got it let me show you what you how to get it.

PRIME only Coaching for His QB Son Shedeur(didn't think Son gotta fair deal @FAU). To get Shedeur & Shiloh the exposure, He'll leave JSU, quickly.

He's waiting on the fsu coaching position to open up he's a competitor that would be the best spot for Prime not JSu ....

I believe sooner or later he'll leave. Not about money. But competition. Coach Sanders always been ABOUT THAT ACTION. He got way more juice than coach Saban at bama and coach smart at Georgia. Put him at a power 5 school and a dynasty will be born

His kids go to jsu. I don't see em making a move until they graduate at least

Honestly ...primetime would move up faster tho ...Florida state and auburn even tho I'm Alabama fan but he's making history at Hbcu....cant lie ...but if Auburn or Florida st....P5 he be closer to move up cuz rankings u kno top 25 ijs rolltide

To me I don't see Deion going to Auburn. He doesn't need to go to Auburn. I can see Deion going to Florida State if that job opens up.
