Colorado head football coach Deion Sanders didn't hold back when discussing the NCAA's handling of mental health issues after offensive lineman Tyler Brown was denied immediate eligibility following his transfer from Jackson State.

"Do you really care (about mental health), or are you saying you care? Are you caring when it's convenient?" Sanders said in a Tuesday press conference, per The Athletic's David Ubben. "Or when it's profitable?"

He added: "It don't make sense. Some things just don't make sense. You say you really care about mental health but when you have someone really dealing with mental health, there's a problem.
