Shannon Sharpe Defends Deion Sanders’ Decision To Leave HBCU For PWI

The Undisputed co-host continued to respond to other critics on social who compared Sanders leaving a HBCU to Black people who leave the hood and are deemed successful.

One user asked Sharpe, “So Black institutions and things are a downgrade?”

This questioned prompted the talk show host to respond by sharing the true reason he went to SSU.

“I went to an HBCU, but only because I was prop 48. It worked out gr8 for me. Had I had the grades coming out of hs. I wouldn’t haven’t chosen an HBCU,” he tweeted.
