The post-Deion Sanders era has started with a new head football coach being appointed to the program. Alumni, former Jackson State Quarterback and Wide Receiver T.C Taylor has taken over the program being named the 22nd Head Football Coach. The road for the first-time head coach has been met with a few setbacks from players following the previous head football coach to Colorado University, and the other jumping into the transfer portal. Head Coach TC Taylor and his Tigers coaching staff have stayed the course continuing to bring in athletes who want to be a part of the program giving the Jackson State Tigers Football team more opportunities to compete for more SWAC and Celebration Bowl Championships for years to come.
Jackson State Tigers football fans’ confidence in their new head football coach speaks to the belief they have that Head Coach T.C Taylor will recruit the athletes that want to be a part of what the JSU Tigers Football program is building and not what they can offer. Some want to see Jackson State crumble into ashes, and feel the party is over for the Tigers because they no longer have All-SWAC Quarterback Shedeur Sanders as the signal caller and his dad, Deion Sanders, as the head football coach, who is known for his ability to recruit and lead the Tigers football team to more SWAC Championships and Celebration Bowl bids.
