Jackson State head coach Deion Sanders said the football program is operating in a state of crisis nearing the start of their season.
Jackson State starts its season Sunday, Sept. 4 against Florida A&M.
“Water means we don’t have air condition. Can’t use toilets,” Sanders said. “We don’t have water, therefore we don’t have ice, which pretty much places a burden on the program. So right now we’re operating in crisis mode. I gotta get these kids off-campus — the ones that live on campus, the one’s that live in the city of Jackson — into a hotel and accommodate them so that they can shower properly and take care of their needs. Make sure all of our kids are fed, all of our kids have the necessities of life for the next several days, until this crisis resides.”
Sanders has a lot on his plate with what he is trying to do at Jackson State. The amenities on Campus should be the least of his concerns less than a week until kickoff.
