Alabama A&M coach Connell Maynor isn’t shying away from some pregame trash talk with Deion Sanders.

FootballScoop’s John Brice shared some entertaining quotes from Monday’s SWAC coaches teleconference.

Brice shares that Maynor, without being prompted, had some fun with Sanders’ recent tweet about needing a mobile medical scooter after having surgery on his foot.

“Hey, Coach Sanders, I hurt my ankle getting off the bus the other day,” Maynor said at the end of his time on the call. “You got an extra scooter for me? If you got an extra scooter, send me one down here.”

Sanders didn’t address the scooter request.

“It’s a little rivalry, it’s a little blood in between,” Sanders said. “You know, the coach says something about me, I don’t shoot back. Because I don’t do that because I’m really good at that. I’m on this high road right now. I take the high road, right? I’m a different dude. So I don’t do that. But you know, everybody is waiting for me to do that at the conclusion of this matter.

“We’re just going to have to sit and see. Am I going to do that?”

Maynor pointed out that with Shedeur Sanders, Deion’s son, at quarterback, Jackson State isn’t putting up as many points.

“Coach Sanders has done a good job with those guys in a short period of time,” Maynor said. “Their biggest improvement has been on defense. Got a good defense, not giving up a lot of points.

“Offensively, they’re not as good as they were last year for whatever reason. Shedeur, Deion’s son, is playing well at quarterback but for whatever reason they’re just not putting up the points they did last year (under a different quarterback). They’ll get it worked out. Hopefully not this week.

“They got a good football team. We got to be ready to play and we will.”

Deion Sanders responded in a similar fashion, praising Alabama A&M’s offense but not its defense.

“Alabama A&M came here and they played their butts off,” Sanders said of the teams’ spring game. “Their quarterback had a tremendous game, those receivers lit us up. Defensively, they were OK. But offensively they did what they needed to do to get out of here with a victory.”

Bulletin board material for Shedeur adds some spice to Saturday’s game. More quotes from the teleconference can be found at FootballScoop.
