It stings that Deion Sanders has left Jackson State University for the University of Colorado. Sanders brought a great deal of positive attention to the program and the rich history of JSU football, the Southwestern Athletic Conference and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). Yet, surveying the list of 68 head coaches at Power 5 conference programs reveals a homogenous group and a depressingly familiar reality of the football head coaching ranks. For as bad as the NFL’s… Source link

Deion Sanders is the only person to play in both the Super Bowl and the World Series, not to mention the only player to ever hit a MLB home run and record an NFL interception in the same week. On Oct. 11, 1992, he played in an NFL game and suited up for a MLB game … on the same day … in two different cities. That probably beats the time at Florida State when he won the 100 and 200 meters in a morning track meet and then started as a center fielder for the Seminoles’ baseball team that… Source link

[Set, hut, hike! Create or join a fantasy football league now!] Much was expected from Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones and Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders back in 2021. Their ADPs differed — Jones was a first-round draft pick, while Sanders was to be had in the early middle rounds — but each was expected to deliver sound fantasy production last season. Jones was a solid option after the top RBs and WRs were selected in the first round. Sanders was one of the last… Source link

Jackson State football coach and Pro Football Hall of Famer Deion Sanders recently had surgery on his injured foot which resulted in the amputation of two toes on his left foot. The procedure is discussed in an episode of the SMAC Entertainment and Barstool Sports series, “Coach Prime”, which detailed his three-week stay in a Mississippi hospital. Sanders, 54, had his big toe and the second toe on his foot amputated and he lost 35 pounds during his stay. Sanders was diagnosed with three femoral… Source link

Jackson State coach Deion Sanders is already drawing plenty of attention as a coach. Sanders led Jackson State to an 11-win season his first year on the job. He was rewarded with the FCS Coach of the Year honor. That success has already propelled Sanders into NFL conversations. There were no reports Sanders interviewed during the most recent coaching cycle, or that teams contacted Sanders, but there was a belief Sanders could break into the NFL head coaching ranks soon. Problem is, Sanders… Source link

Deion Sanders and Jackson State have pulled off a signing day shocker. Travis Hunter, Rivals.com’s No. 1 player in the class of 2022, announced Wednesday that he has committed to play for Jackson State. Hunter, a two-way player listed by Rivals as an athlete, was committed to Florida State since March of 2020. There was also speculation that the Suwanee, Georgia, native could flip his decision to the in-state Bulldogs. Instead, he will drop down to the FCS level to play for Sanders at… Source link

(Bloomberg) — Elon Musk, the world’s wealthiest person, directed a series of insults at Bernie Sanders on Twitter after the U.S. senator repeated his call for billionaires to pay more in taxes. Most Read from Bloomberg Musk even raised the notion of selling more of his Tesla Inc. shares, which would require him to pay capital gains taxes. The 80-year-old Sanders, who unsuccessfully sought the Democratic Party presidential nomination in 2016 and 2020, on Saturday tweeted that “we must… Source link

Liberal Democrats think they’re having a moment. They’re tying up President Biden’s legislative agenda because it doesn’t tax the rich enough or lavish adequate spending on the needy. Since Democrats have tiny majorities in both the House and Senate, a few defectors can squash Biden’s entire plan. Liberals are reveling in their leverage. They shouldn’t be. The so-called progressive wing of the Democratic party may have enough heft to block action, as it has with the so-called… Source link

Berkshire Hathaway (BRK-A, BRK-B) Vice Chairman Charlie Munger on Saturday declared progressive Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) the victor in the nation’s political fight over income inequality. The hot economy and loose monetary policy will end up narrowing the nation’s wealth gap, Munger predicted. “With everything boomed up so high and interest rates so low, what’s going to happen is the millennial generation is going to have a hell of a time getting rich compared to our generation,”… Source link
