Here’s a bold statement: DeSean Jackson’s coaching moves are quietly reshaping the future of Delaware State football—and one decision, in particular, has everyone talking. But here’s where it gets controversial... After a stellar first season that saw the Hornets finish 8-4 with five consecutive wins (against Southern Connecticut State, North Carolina Central, Norfolk State, Morgan State, and Howard), Jackson is making a surprising switch in his coaching staff. Former NFL running back Clinton Portis, whose run-heavy strategy helped two backs land Power 4 opportunities, is out. Replacing him? Another ex-NFL running back, Steve Broussard, whose coaching journey spans two decades and includes stops at UCLA, Arizona State, SMU, and Washington State—his alma mater. And this is the part most people miss... Broussard’s experience isn’t just about the big names; he’s also served as an offensive coordinator and head coach at the high school level, most recently coaching running backs at Cal Poly for the past two seasons. This move isn’t just about replacing one coach with another—it’s about evolving the program’s identity. Will Broussard’s West Coast coaching style mesh with Jackson’s vision? Or is this a calculated risk to elevate the Hornets to even greater heights? With larger FBS programs already eyeing Jackson after his impressive debut, this staffing change could be the key to either solidifying his legacy or sparking debate among fans. Here’s the question we’re all thinking: Is this a genius move or a risky gamble? Let’s discuss—what do you think about Jackson’s decision? Does Broussard’s background make him the perfect fit, or is this a step in the wrong direction? Sound off in the comments!
