Jackson State coach Deion Sanders was taken by surprise after attempting to shake hands with Alabama State’s Eddie Robinson Jr. as the Hornets coach shoved him away when the pair met midfield on Saturday.
Robinson’s curt reaction may stem from offhanded comments Sanders made dissing Alabama in an interview a few days before the game.
Predicting that his Tigers would easily beat the Hornets, Sanders had blasted Alabama State’s decision to make Saturday’s game the Alabama Homecoming game. “It was brilliant to invite us there because you’re going to make some money. But what comes with money?” SandersRobinson has also blasted Sanders for elbowing his way in and “living on the shoulders of the SWAC.”
“He ain’t SWAC. I’m SWAC, he ain’t SWAC,” Robinson told the media after the game. “He’s in the conference, doing a great job, can’t knock that, got a great team, his son should be up for the Heisman Trophy, I love Shedeur, great player, I love what he’s doing for the conference…. But you’re not going to come here and disrespect me and my team and my school and then want a bro hug. Shake my hand and get the hell off.
