I hope he passes on this. If he decides to leave I'd rather see him go to Auburn. It would be fun to see him out recruit and beat Saban.

He's not going anywhere, anytime soon.

When he does leave, it will be for a Power 5 school on the west coast that matches his energy and will allow him to be himself. My guess is USC.

There is also a rumor University of South Florida made him a offer.

Didn't USC just pay Lincoln Riley a bunch of money? He got them boys in contention for the CFP in his first year. Deion will have to wait a while for that job unless Riley leaves for the NFL.

I know it would be a long shot, but Texas A&M would be a nice gig for him.  A 10-year contract for $100 million.

Agreed.

Coach Prime knows the culture of these southern PWIs is extremely racist and they (boosters) would not allow him to use his social media the way he currently does. Once that USC or UCLA position opens, I could see him leaving. That will be after all 3 of his kids graduate from JSU, though.

i've been saying all along that he's in no hurry to leave jsu.  he knows that he'll remain a "hot commodity" as long as he keeps winning at jsu and i fully expect him to keep winning.

prime will leave jsu whenever he himself see's fit, i don't see him jumping for a "low profile" colorado job.  i think he'll stay put until one of the "big boys" come a callin'...

Sanders going to a PWI to coach would make him out to be a hypocrite after all of the rhetoric that he's been spewing about building up our HBCUs and bringing top Black athletes back to them. I would like to think that his integrity means more to him than more money.

Personally, I would like to see him remain at JSU and continue the journey the he claimed that he was sent on.

I hope he does not take those offers. Every time we get someone that comes along who has vision and makes a clear distinction and sets us apart, their mission always gets interrupted because others always Bank on being able to buy themselves a neuro. I hate to be cynical but I can't help it. I hope he stays on mission for a little longer. When he does leave I hope it is for a place that will allow him to thrive and not try to shackle him from his use of social media, his intro music and everything he brings from a cultural aspect because the first thing they will want to do is tell him what he can't do and what they expect their coach to represent to the boosters. Only a few places will be accepting of the complete Prime.

Sidenote: I feel like 10-20 years from now, we will all look back at how many Black people and HBCU alumni hater this man and trashed his efforts to elevate our brand and operations.

He isn't going to cold Colorado nor racist Auburn. We've discussed this already. We will see in two years what's available and where he goes. He's not going to a USC nor a UCLA. Both teams will be in the BIG 10 by then, and I don't see neither school going after Deion. Again, I can see him at an ACC or a new revamp Pac12 conference but not an SEC school. These racists white folks isn't touching him.


that's all...   :tiptoe:

To be honest, he has already done a phenomenal job of increasing the talent pool and brought a larger platform to our schools. I'm not saying his mission is complete but he has done a darn good job.
