I salute you coach prime time I've watched and been a strong supporter since you went to the NFL...... his jersey was my first Jersey..........
This is so amazing...the players on this team will definitely have eyes on them 🙏
Congratulations coach Sanders I look forward to following you on your new journey I'm a fan
This is a great moment
PRIME TIME, all my love and respect to you 🙏 Thank you for founding SHUT DOWN CORNER. No pressure, help your players be MEN, and bring out their BEST, you sir have that gift 🙏 I am a huge GATORS fan, and now a Jackson State fan😎 all my best to you Mr Sanders🔥🔥🔥🔥
I respect coach prime all he has been through and has experienced this is I really is a start of something big I hope he has years of success
Deion Sanders is the man. One helluva motivational speaker.
Congrats to you Prime time. I remember when ppl use to criticize you on your lack of maturity, even though you never got into real trouble. The false narrative that you was a me, myself and I type of player that wasn't built for championship 's. Look at what type of man you've become year's later. U r one of the top 3 greatest defenders of all time. A god fearing man that guide's and lead other 's to having more success. Parent's trust you to lead their kids. It's been great to watch ppl like you who got such a bad wrap while coming up to now being a full blown role model, a mentor. Thank you Deion for making the haters eat their words. It's stories like yours that motivates me to be better for my kid, my family and my community. Thank you
Great to see a truly genuine person leading young brothers to be men. He will be a great coach and so happy he chose a HBCU. Much props to you Deion Sanders.
congratulations to you and your athletes
Oh snap!!! Congrats Deion!
I'm pulling for him.... If he gets the 3-5 star recruits, he will succeed tremendously. Right coaches that work for the betterment of the program. Focus on academics and make sure these kids are ready for life.

This is AWESOME, wishing JSU players and team much success.
This is another first step to dignity and harnessing our own. Time to top recruits to recognize, “ there’s a Love and a focus” that these D1s will never give them. They are not just a meal ticket. An education is an education, except a HBCU won’t hide the truth about our History, D1 won’t pay them for the revenue they generate, I bet a HBCU and do better once they get stars. The first brick has been laid.
Congratulations 🎊
You gotta start somewhere and I think this was a good move for him. Jackson state is just the starting point he will get the experience he needs for a bigger name school and we could easily see him coaching a top 15 school in the next 4 years. This is the type of coach these superstar kids need. Congratulations he's earned the right to coach. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Congrats Prime time and good luck Jackson y'all got some big competition 🖤
JSU is in the Prime spotlight.
Great speech and humility. To God be the glory.
If he still coach at the under armour all American game.... this program might be UP!!!! REAL FAST!!!!
Best man for the job
Blessings Coach Sanders
This is cool. He was an incredible athlete. And wonderful sports Personality. We will see if any of that translates into being a head football coach with zero experience over candidates with many years experience If they wanted a face of their program they could have put him as athletic director I'm glad Prime is getting a shot. I hope he does well
*GREAT* hire
Congratulations Deon!
Game changer🔥🔥🔥🔥
Well a year ago! 1. (CODY) Coach Of The Year 2. The SWAC East Champions ( 9-0) 3. The 2021 SWAC Championship 4. A revived JSU Fan base 5. A higher expectation of things to come! 6. Better recruiting class is also coming! Last but not least, The Sonic Boom 💥 got his back, and the love of his people and community is loving the VIBE, Electricity ⚡️, and positive Energy! What more can you ask for? Also Winning! Do you believe?
I'm glad it finally happened buy even more overjoyed that Prime is coaching at a HBCU. And his staff!! Fire!
Congrats, Deion. Always thought you were an amazing player and motivator. Go Gators though.
Go Noles! Dion is headed 4 Stardom!
Lets hope HBCUs actually toughen up and play for a REAL national championship in the FCS
God bless you and all your work with the young men that you will guide and have guided in the past. You can be a fisherman of men for God. Be that man! God Speed!
Congratulations 👏...
Deion is that dude.

I know I ain’t one of you’re people, but going back to you’re college days I’ve always been a huge fan and unless they would play Pitt I’ll be rooting for Jackson St. I believe with all the talent in the Deep South when Deion walks into a living room he will be able to sell his program and vision and parents will know he wants to mold kids into men and have great success on and off the field
He should've gotten up there & sung his song 'Musr be the money"

They should really start out as a assistant coaches before being thrust into head coaching positions. But I get what you're saying. If they are going to be constantly passed over they might as well go straight to the top. Coach Primetime wish him well

Great choice HBCU
Happy for Prime and Huge hire for HBCU schools. If they can land premier names, and improve the facilities (which big names can do) they could really start to bring in talent. All it takes is a few and HBCU could turn into a premier FBS conference in a few years. Not Power 5, but that next tier. If he doesn’t leave for a big school. Could always be in line for FSU
Prairie View A & M University...
Hold up, i need to do my homework before I post. Sapp and T.O coaching may be fake news. My bad!
?So is his older son going to transfer in and his baby boy going to decommit from fau and transfer in so what do yall think
I wouldn't say I'm concerned bc I'm not a jackson state fan/student but I am wondering why he was passed up on coaching positions for bigger programs... Does he already reside in that general area?!

Not many people can go from HS offensive coordinator to D-1 head coach so I’d say he made a pretty big leap. He’s never run a program before might also contribute to him not being looked at by major college programs.

Very good point. In the NBA it’s not uncommon for players to become coaches, for example: Jason Kidd and Derek Fisher, both of them were also point guards both of them had long career just like Nash. I think it’s more of a thing in the NBA.
I don't see it, but good luck.

Can't judge by no coaching history. I understand that the NBA sport is different but you just never know. I couldn't believe that steve Kerr had no coaching experience but was able to win a title. But it would've helped for Dion Sanders to have a assistance coaching experience in the collegiate level, but he was a coach for a trinity prep colleage football team from 2017 to 2020 and prime prep school also .But we shall see.
