Ten days back, a close friend of Deion Sanders, Robert Griffin III said that Deion would go to the NFL only if he got to coach his sons, Shedeur Sanders Jr. and Shilo Sanders who play for the Colorado Buffaloes.
But then Jerry Jones, the owner of the Dallas Cowboys was eyeing the NFL legend for the head coach’s job. And ten days later, the job goes to an insider. It goes to the offensive coordinator for the Dallas Cowboys - Brian Schottenheimer. Deion Sanders is nowhere to be found in the picture. And this has gravely disappointed the Dallas Cowboys' former wide receiver, Michael Irvin. He expressed his firm disregard on his own YouTube show called, Michael Irvin.
"Jerry is a shrewd businessman." - former wide receiver for the Dallas Cowboys, Michael Irvin, says on his YouTube show
Talk about hiring first-timers, first, the New York Jets did it by hiring Aaron Glenn and now, it’s the Dallas Cowboys. Just that this time, they have hired someone from their own franchise. Instead of hiring Deion Sanders! Who was in the talks for far too long?
Read what an NFL Network Analyst has to say about that:
“We lost an opportunity. I don't know what will happen with Brian Schottenheimer in the Dallas Cowboys. I don’t know him that well. But I do know this, Jerry is a shrewd businessman. And this opportunity, I’m shocked he did not see. I was pushing for Deion Sanders to be the next head coach and I still stand 10 toes down on that push. ”
Addressing Jerry Jones, the owner of the Dallas Cowboys, Michael taunts, “You talk about money all off-season, but you don’t talk about winning.”
Michael shared, “And then when it's time to be talking about football, you got everybody sitting at home and say, “Now Brian is going to come in.”. What is he gonna say? - “We’re going to start showing up at the hotel when we’re going to have a curfew.” Now, you’re risking losing the whole locker room. I hope I am wrong.“
“How are they going to tell their kids if they don’t know it? That’s why hiring Deion was the right call,” says Michael Irvin
“Pete Carroll had some experience. Mike McCarthy had some experience. At least they walked the walk. Brian hadn’t walked no walk. So why did he got over Deion? Damn, I love Jerry, but I don’t know where this comes from. But I do know where this comes from. Just disappointed man.”
