Deion Sanders hasn’t forgotten where he came from.
The former Jackson State football coach recently appeared on “GMA3: What You Need to Know” and acknowledged how his old school helped propel his rise within the collegiate game.
“They (Jackson State) looked out for me,” Sanders told GMA3 host and Jackson State alum Demarco Morgan. “Without Jackson State, there would be no Prime, trust me.”
