Deion Sanders brought out some Prime guests during his first season as head coach at Jackson State … with Rex Ryan and Hall of Famer Troy Aikman rolling through to check out his team, a new documentary series revealed Monday.
Coach — who took the helm at the HBCU in 2020 — had the cameras rolling during his first season with the Tigers for a ‘Hard Knocks’-esque series with Barstool Sports and SMAC Productions … fittingly titled, “Coach Prime.”
The trailer for the series just dropped minutes ago … showing a passionate Sanders giving motivational speeches to his players … as well as the big-time names who showed up to get a glimpse of the Tigers during the season.
The clip shows Ryan hyping up the team … talking about the amount of courage it takes to play in the sport. It’s pretty intense stuff.
Sanders spoke about the decision to allow the all-access series to happen … saying, “I am incredibly proud to share the incredible story of Jackson State University, our football program, and our student athletes.”
“This docuseries serves as a platform that will help us continue the important work we are doing to level the playing field, create opportunity and raise awareness for JSU and all HBCUs. I BELIEVE!”
The 6-part series is set to debut August 29 and will be available on all platforms.
Also, it’s Coach’s birthday — so have a good one, Prime!!!
