Deion Sanders Leaves Jackson State University To Be The Head Coach At The University of Colorado Football Team
Hall of Fame football player Deion Sanders was praised during his coaching stint at Jackson State University. Most of those same critics who once praised him felt like Deion turned his back on HBCU football when he left for a higher paying job at the University of Colorado. Deion, also known as Coach Prime, is expected to earn $29.5 million over five years as well as performance bonuses and incentives. At Jackson State, Deion was earning about $1 million a year and even donated a portion to renovate student housing and facilities. Some critics are referring to Coach Prime as a sellout while others are recognizing his sacrifices and efforts during his coaching stint.
