Ahead of the first game against FAMU, another HBCU, Coach Prime stated he was moving the student-athletes off campus and looking for a place to practice.

We’re operating in crisis mode. I got to get these kids off campus.

Sanders continued to say he has to get the students into a hotel and “take care of their needs and ensure all our kids are fed.”

Coach Prime also said he has to ensure the students “have the necessities of life until the issue is [resolved].”

The former NFL coach ended his video with:

The devil is a lie. You ain’t gon’ get us today, baby.
