Mike Haynes, a Hall of Famer and Pro Football Retired Players Association board members, talks about Deion Sanders taking college football by storm.
Jackson State Tigers women’s basketball coach Tomekia Reed took issue with how "60 Minutes" portrayed the Mississippi capital city in its interview with Deion Sanders.
Sanders coached the Jackson State football team for three seasons before he left for Colorado at the end of 2022. In the segment, Jackson, Mississippi, and Boulder, Colorado, were contrasted as two separate towns.
The feature showed a dilapidated home in Jackson next to the greenery and open spaces in Boulder. "The distance between Jackson and Boulder is 1,000 miles and immeasurably further culturally," "60 Minutes" correspondent Jon Wertheim said before leading into some of the statistics.
