'We as a PEOPLE don’t have to pay our PEOPLE to play with our PEOPLE,' tweeted Jackson State coach DeionSanders.
Shortly after 1 a.m. CT on Thursday, Sanders tweeted again, this time in. The video, captioned “Stay Tuned,” featured an image of Sanders checking his watch with the message, “You know what time it is,” and then, “I will be addressing the lies that were told by Coach Saban soon.”
Within Saban’s answer a few hours earlier, he specifically mentioned Jackson State and, without naming the player, alluded to the school’s successful recruitment of five-star cornerback Travis Hunter last year. “We have a rule right now that said you cannot use name, image and likeness to entice a player to come to your school. Hell, read about it in the paper!” Saban said. “I mean, Jackson State paid a guy a million dollars last year that was a really good Division I player to come to school. It was in the paper and they bragged about it. Nobody did anything about it.”
Rumors of a million-plus dollar endorsement deal surfaced last December after Hunter, the No. 1 rated prospect by 247 Sports in the 2022 class, flipped his commitment from Florida State to Jackson State. But SandersHunter has an NIL deal with a Mississippi-based coffee company but said in a recent Instagram video, according to thethat began airing last year.Note to readers: if you purchase something through one of our affiliate links we may earn a commission.
