Deion Sanders received a major endorsement if there’s any chance he becomes more in the mix for the TCU vacancy.
Zach Evans, the star running back at TCU and a former Georgia commit, weighed in about Sanders’ possible candidacy in the Horned Frogs coaching search, and wrote on Twitter, “We want Deion Sanders.”

This follows a report from the Fort Worth Star Telegram earlier this week that said Sanders is in the mix for the job, as the Star-Telegram reported earlier this week. One high-ranking source said Sanders is expected to make the cut for the second round of interviews. Sanders has impressed the college football world in his short time at Jackson State, landing the highest-ranked FCS and HBCU recruiting class in history in 2021.
Sanders has missed 3 games this season because of foot surgery, and subsequent complications, but Jackson State is 8-1 in his second season at the helm, including 6-0 in the SWAC.
