'Fan Only Blows When You Hot': Deion Sanders Reacts to Paul Finebaum's Remarks

Sanders Fires Back

Former NFL star and current Jackson State football coach Deion Sanders has fired back at ESPN college football analyst Paul Finebaum, who said Sanders is only popular because "he's a hot commodity and he was a great player."

Sanders' Response

Sanders took to Twitter to respond to Finebaum's comments, saying, "The fan only blows when you hot. Get used to it."

He also added, "I'm not going anywhere. I'm here to stay. So get used to it."

Finebaum's Comments

Finebaum had previously said that Sanders is "not a coach" and that he is only popular because he is "a celebrity." He also said that Sanders' success at Jackson State is due to the fact that he is recruiting top players.

Sanders' Success at Jackson State

Sanders has led Jackson State to a 21-5 record in his two seasons as coach. The Tigers won the SWAC championship in 2021 and are currently ranked No. 1 in the FCS.

Sanders' Impact on College Football

Sanders has been a vocal critic of the NCAA and has called for changes to the way college football is run. He has also been a strong advocate for HBCUs and has helped to raise the profile of Jackson State.

Finebaum's History of Controversy

Finebaum is no stranger to controversy. He has been criticized for his comments about players, coaches, and programs in the past.

Conclusion

Sanders' response to Finebaum's comments shows that he is not afraid to stand up for himself and his program. It also shows that he is confident in his abilities as a coach and that he is not going anywhere.

Only time will tell how Sanders' tenure at Jackson State will ultimately be judged, but there is no doubt that he has already had a major impact on the program and on college football as a whole.
