FSU search goes full Tennessee: The best responses following report linking Deion Sanders to job opening in Tallahassee
Published:
If you missed the news that was first shared late Thursday night, Florida State is apparently considering Deion Sanders to be its next head coach.
No, this is not a joe.
Needless to say, the FSU coaching search is getting weird.
According to Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo of NFL Media, Sanders “has emerged as a candidate for the Florida State head coaching job” less than a week after the program parted ways with Willie Taggart.
Following that stunning news, we rounded up some of the better reactions online:
If Deion Sanders gets that FSU coaching job, dem poor babies ain’t gonna be tackling nobody. ?

Word is Deion Sanders is not going to take the FSU job unless he can also coach baseball.

Here’s the only argument that could be made to hire Deion:
"College football coaches in 2019 are mainly CEO's. Three things matter most – invigorating the program, recruiting, and hiring the right staff. Who would do that better than @DeionSanders?" — @PSchrags pic.twitter.com/qCZqiogliJ
