Jackson State’s Deion Sanders has been linked to some of college football’s most glamorous head coaching openings going into next season, so Monday’s update was a curious one for a lot of fans.
According to Bleacher Report (via 247’s Carl Reed), “Sanders is in talks with Colorado and South Florida to fill their head coaching vacancies.”
A far cry from the likes of Auburn and Nebraska.
