can you name a single player? i can t. it brought attention to deion, to jackson state. you weren t going to bring attention to all these other schools in a time period that he was there. like, if he was really going to accomplish that, that s a ten-year program, at least. you re saying he had to stay. yeah. 60 minutes profiled him like a month or two ago and it was on that program he said i believe god called me collect and i had to accept the charges and then he said this, let s play it. a lot of folks sitting back on the twitter fingers and talk about what they re going to do. and i wanted to go do it. do what? change lives. change the perspective of hbcu football. make everyone step up to the plate and do what s right by these kids. didn t he do that at least by starting it? and now as shannon was saying, is it up to others to carry it forward? you can go find another deion sanders. that s the thing of this, if you re talking about
lit under hbcu football would be an internal flame. that is why it is a bit disappointing. on the other side of things, that man has bills to pay. he is in his retirement doing his coaching thing which is a new part of his career. we all want career improvement, development, growth. he is not it is not his job to carry the entire culture on his back. that man wants more money, bigger spotlight, and he did his part. it is now somebody else s turn to pick up the torch and keep the fire burning that dion lit. i think this is such a good point. shelby, what do you think? can you fault dion sanders for going where the money besides? that is worth two nodes because we ve had the president of jay asked you on this program. it is an illustrious institution that was in the news and had the culture on its back before deontay under layer. that will continue even when coach pride is gone. you know it, i m not surprised by dion s move. i believe, if i m not mistaken, he did an interview maybe
