A couple paragraphs:

Sanders’ results on the field and his role in helping to put HBCUs on a grander stage have earned him The Athletic’s Sports Culture Person of the Year for 2022.

Jackson State (11-0, 8-0 in Southwestern Athletic Conference) will host Saturday’s SWAC championship game against Southern. The Tigers are 26-5 in Sanders’ three seasons. All the while, the Coach Prime era has brought legitimate attention to Jackson State and HBCU football — and has also made Sanders a popular candidate for open Power 5 jobs.

No idea but if the available option is Colorado, I'd think he'd rather stay at Jackson State.

Colorado is not a great job, especially in the NIL world. I'm not even sure it's a good job.

I've heard South Florida really wants him. He said he was considering Colorado, Cincinnati, and South Florida.
