Deion Sanders Says Nick Saban Lied About Travis Hunter Jr.'s NIL Guarantees at JSU

The Jackson State football head coach heard the accusations from the Alabama head coach, and he retaliated.

Jackson State paid a player $1 million to commit to the program, according to the allegations made by Saban. He said that the player he was referring to was the No. 1 overall player in the class of 2022.
