Former Florida LB and Jackson State EDGE James Houston selected by Detroit Lions in Round 6 of 2022 NFL Draft

Yes. Deion Sanders never earned a degree, so he would not qualify as a head coach at a public university in the state of Florida without a waiver. It helps that Jackson State is a great HBCU destination. JSU has produced four Pro Football Hall of Famers, including Walter Payton. I assume James Houston IV was attracted to the HBCU aspect, since he already had a degree from UF (BA in Education Sciences, 2021) and JSU's NIL plan had not picked up momentum at the time Houston announced his transfer.
