If he's just doing it for his sons, he sure did put in a shit ton of work at Jackson State before joining CU.
I'm not saying Deion is an amazing coach, but I don't think it's all about his own self-interest. I think he legit wants to be a good coach, and as cringy as something like this looks, he's doing it because he thinks it's a good idea. [Reply]
That seems like a really good idea to me. They're practice jerseys, who cares? In today's game I would think creating opportunities like this is just something that will help attract good players. [Reply]

Exactly!
There are actually folks in this country that have some sort of problem with kids who made it onto a D1 team putting their social media handles on their fuckin' practice jerseys?
"We sitting in here -- I'm supposed to be the franchise player, and we in here talking about practice. I mean, listen: We talking about practice. Not a game. Not a game. Not a game. We talking about practice. Not a game. Not the game that I go out there and die for and play every game like it's my last. Not the game. We talking about practice, man."

You mean how he talked up how great HBCU football before bolting out of there after 2-3 seasons? [Reply]
