After tearing through Texas A&M on Wednesday night, Nick Saban decided he needed to make further enemies with Deion Sanders. While discussing the current state of NIL, Saban alleged that Sanders and his school Jackson State paid former five-star Travis Hunter $1 Million to attend its school.
The comments came after Saban accused Texas A&M of buying every player in the 2022 recruiting class, setting off a firestorm in the process. His comments about Jackson State came during his rant on enticement of players by boosters to attend certain schools.
“We have a rule right now that says you cannot use NIL to entice a player to come to your school. Hell, read about it in the paper, I mean Jackson State paid a guy a million dollars last year that was a really good Division-1 player to come to their school and it was in the paper and they bragged about it. Nobody did anything about it.”

This tweet comes after another social media post where he said he would address the lies that Nick Saban told on Wednesday night about his school.
You best believe I will address that LIE Coach SABAN told tomorrow. I was & awakened by my son @ShedeurSanders that sent me the article stating that WE PAYED @TravisHunterJr a Million to play at @GoJSUTigersFB ! We as a PEOPLE don’t have to pay our PEOPLE to play with our PEOPLE.

Get ready for more fireworks, thanks to Nick Saban.
Prediction: Nick is a racist…
So now Deion is making this a race thing? “We as a people”? F-ing ridiculous!!! What happened to one people, one nation, mankind? Seems jackasses like Deion continue to push for division then holler racist when called out. If a white person made the remarks that Deion made he would be fired immediately. People like Deion don’t want equality they want revenge and better treatment than any other race!!!
I like Prime bit disappointed in this response
Oh fuck off nick saban everyone in College Football knows for a fact you’ve been doing the same damn thing for decades now your woke ass is just salty others are beating you at your own game. Nick Saban is about to be exposed when he can’t rake in those Number one classes year after year.
Wait, who is beating Saban on a regular basis? On the field or otherwise, he has been pretty dominant for the last 14 years or so.
Not the point Chris B. The point is Deion went straight to race and not defending his position or pointing out that Saban has benefited from NIL as well.
“WE PAYED @TravisHunterJr a Million to play at @GoJSUTigersFB ”
Didn’t Sanders just admit Saban was right?
Don’t kid yourself. Blacks are way more bigoted against other races, specifically White and Asians than every other race. Most blacks resent and in many cases hate Whites. Deion is no different. He’s a bigot.
Coach Prime, that would be PAID and not PAYED.
