‘I’d be okay with that’: Anchor Rakai shares Deion Sanders’ college football commentary after NFL Pro Bowl celebrity reaction

Deion Sanders isn’t staying silent after streamer Rakai shared a bold story online. The Colorado Buffaloes head coach attended the NFL’s Pro Bowl weekend on Feb. 15, where he coached a celebrity flag football game. After the game, Lackey, a 17-year-old YouTuber with nearly 940,000 subscribers, said on his live broadcast that Sanders told him he should leave the broadcast and play college football games.This statement quickly attracted people’s attention. Shortly after, a video from Well Off Media showed Sanders reacting when asked about Lackey’s words. Sanders looked up from his barber’s chair and said, “Can you call Lackey and we can talk about this?” Then he added: “I love him, I think he’s doing a great job, he’s talented. I don’t know if he’s a college athlete now. So while Deion Sanders praised the teen’s efforts, he also made it clear that he doesn’t fully support the idea of ​​college admissions.

During his live broadcast, Lackey said, “Dean said, I’m not going to lie, Brody, you want to drop all the streaming stuff and play college ball. I’m going to be okay with that.” Lackey also told his viewers, “I know I’m good at football, but I’m not going to do all of that.”However, Sanders’ public reaction differed from this story. In the same Well Off Media video, Sanders later sent out a strong message that many fans could relate to. He said: “I’m here to tell you, you need to play. What does that mean? You’re on the sidelines. You’re on the bench. You’re not even in this thing. You’re just in the stands talking, talking, talking, talking. But to those guys, you have a lot to say. Maybe enter a competition. What are you afraid of, what are you afraid of, but forget your yesterday and don’t be afraid of tomorrow. You can’t win if you’re not in the game, but you always have something to say. I need you to shut up and get in on the game. “Sanders did not directly name Lackey in that speech. Still, because of the way the video was edited, many viewers felt the timing wasn’t random.On the field, Lakay actually performed well in a celebrity event. He moves quickly, avoids defenders, and makes plays in defense. But flag football on a celebrity show is much different than Power 4 college football. There is no public record of Lackey’s official height or weight. From the video, he looks smaller than most college graduates, which is important for a student at that level.At the same event, Sanders also poked fun at comedian Druski’s performance, jokingly saying, “You give the other team everything you’ve got.” That moment also went viral, showcasing Sanders’ humor and honesty.At this time, there is no evidence that Sanders offered Lackey an actual college contract. What’s clear is that one live comment turned an entertaining celebrity match into a massive online debate between football fans and live fans.
