Deion Sanders in Lincoln? Fans, media make case for Sanders as Nebraska head coach
Deion Sanders made his collegiate head coaching debut at Jackson State in 2020. Since that time, Sanders has been a popular name linked to many head coaching jobs around the country.
One of the latest Power 5 jobs to come open is Nebraska with the firing of Scott Frost early in the 2022 season. And of course, fans and members of the media have begun making a case for Sanders to come to Lincoln.
Sanders’ resumé definitely speaks for itself with an elite NFL pedigree, strong results at Jackson State and an early strong track record of recruiting. Sanders has gone 16-5 at Jackson State and led the Tigers to a conference title and an 11-win season in 2021.
Nevertheless, it remains to be seen if Sanders is on the radar of Trev Alberts and the Huskers. Whether or not that is the case, some people are already making it clear it would be great to see Sanders in Lincoln to try and revive the program.

Nebraska should seriously consider Deion Sanders. He will get talent there

Whatever Nebraska has to do to get Deion Sanders, they should be backing up that Brinks truck with whatever the hell it takes.
It's incredible how far that program has fallen.

If you’re Nebraska why not take a crazy shot on someone like Deion Sanders? What do you have to lose? You’re already irrelevant at this point

If I’m Nebraska, I’m giving Deion Sanders a blank check

I shudder to think what @DeionSanders could do for the @Huskers in ALL facets of the program i.e., recruiting, practice habits, winning mindset, wins… @TrevAlberts https://t.co/AvncBsGSjL
