Deion Sanders Lands Another Top Commitment At Jackson State

If Prime keeps pulling in these recruits, they will be on TV... they'll bump a few games to put them on.

Was JSU on tv when Walter Peyton was drafted? How about Mis. V. when Jerry Rice was? Man, honestly if you good, the NFL will find you. Hell, players get drafted from schools like Ball St., Wyoming, etc. Be honest, when was the last time you watched one of their games? JSU (Deion Sanders) is making headlines, scouts and many others will definitely keep an eye on the program to see how he and his players perform.

Why?

Would love to read more of your thoughts on why this is good for me?

Is it best... the best white QB, kicker and punter play at Yale type schools?

Similar thought. Deon is known to be shady.

Exactly which University that lands good recruits isn't shady? I've yet to see one. Not sure if he's doing anything shady but he won't get top recruits or last long if he isn't. It's how ALL good programs get top recruits. There once was a time that Grambling University had some of the best talent in the country. Recruits choosing HBCU's isn't as new as some think. Look at Walter Payton and Jerry Rice for instance.

Ellis, other than HBCU'many or most schools in this country refused admission by Black Students. The last all-white football team to win a Natty was in 1969 for some context. That had more to do with the history than a choice.

LOL, are you serious? You don't think kids go to the NFL from HBCU's? Walter Payton, Jerry Rice, Mel Blount, Steve McNair, Michael Strahan, Shannon Sharpe and countless others. Man, if you good, the NFL will find you....I promise you that. We always talk about players paying for pride of the university and so forth. Yet we question when top-tier recruits choose a school for more than just the standard reason most athletes do. Many HBCU's are operating on small budgets and in debt. They offer education to many that can't always afford the bigger more predominantly white institutions. Yet, African-American athletes consistently choose to attend and play for these Universities and aid in millions of dollars being generated annually. I promise you Deion is selling these kids on the fact that "hey, the NFL doesn't care where you play at in college, they just care in your skillset and ability". Plus he's offering a chance for them to possibly generate money/funding for an institution that generally wouldn't get that chance. And NO...it's not being racist, it's spreading the wealth. There's nothing wrong with choosing to help a university that has helped so many others that you identify with. Hunter family would be in a MUCH better situation to pay out-of-state tuition for Jackson St. than LSU. I'm pretty sure outside am athletic scholarship, many of the black LSU players would've never been at LSU.

1) they can always go to the transfer portal is it doesn’t work out 2) they can always go through the transfer portal and follow sanders Really no risk. Likely to get play time right away as well.

Deion swearing no Barstool NIL money is involved.

Oh yeah grades ain’t cutting it for SEC LOL

Ummm, why those two individuals for those particular schools? SMH And that is precisely what Deion is selling these kids on. Fact is, many football players only get the opportunity to attend these more predominantly white institutions because of athletics. Yet, without athletics, they typically attend HBCU's primarily due to tuition. There are tons of great players in the NFL from HBCU's.

Agreed. Time to level the playing field.

It sure wasn't tackling class!
