I admittedly can't stand Deion. He's a grifter all about Deion. All eyes on him always. Prime Academy was a complete grift and people just conveniently forget about that. He was all about some HBCU until a better opportunity came calling. Now he's larping around in a Cowboy hat at Colorado until a better opportunity comes calling again 

If you enjoy the entertainment aspect of it, I get it. But let's not make it out to be something it's not.

No real argument with any of that. Sanders has always been primarily about Sanders.

Lady Cowboy Fan likes Deion because of his Cowboy ties but that's it.

Take away the Prime Academy debacle and I'd feel a lot different. But Prime Academy plus going to the mat for HBCU just to move on at the first chance to do so? It just shows the true nature IMO.

It's funny you guys been doubting Deion since the season started. 3 weeks in and people still waiting for him to lose his 1st game.

 

This is supposed to be a Cinderella story. Any other coach does this they are viewed as the ultimate underdog. But because it's Deion we have to root against him.

 

I think we all know they aren't going undefeated. But you can't deny he's off to a hell of a start. Wait until he gets comfortable in the recruiting and transfer portal. This team will absolutely be competing for a Nat'l championship starting next year.

 

If you don't believe by now then shame on you.

 

Lol. Wut? I think because it's Deion is why most are rooting against it. It's literally getting thrown in our face 24/7 on ESPN, Fox, etc. Deion last night literally said he was the best coach in CFB. How in the Hell do you expect people to root for this when all that is getting thrown at them?

FYI. I will bet you my checking account Deion won't be competing for a Natty next year because CFB starts in the trenches, and Deion's O-Line and D-Line are shitt, his recruiting class coming in is shitt, and they won't be poo next year. 

They're about to get murdered by Oregon this weekend, then USC next week. It's a cute story, but many other former players have done shitt like this before and no one has cared. 

It's a cute story but when you realize TCU's roster isn't half of what it was last year (they struggled going into the middle of the 3rd vs a bad, bad Houston team on Saturday night). How awful Nebraska is, and Colorado struggling vs a bad Colorado State. poo's about to get real this weekend in Eugene.

A team like OU which has beat the spread by a whopping 57 points in three weeks is getting no play. They're not playing with their food and winning handedly vs all their competition. When they played SMU week two, they held them to 11 points, while OU scored 28. Yes. SMU got held to 11 points by Oklahoma's defense. SMU just scored 69 points and allowed zero over the weekend. It wouldn't shock me, if SMU beat TCU. This isn't last years TCU team.

I like Deion as an Atlanta Brave,  but never liked him as a football player.   He is truly a Hall of Famer, but I just don't care for his constant "chatter" .  ( funny thing is, I loved Cam's ,,,  but he played for my team ) .

Personally I think he'll be able to recruit just fine.  high school players and transfer are eating this up,,  the success he's had a Jackson St and now Colorado . 

I like what Mike Elko has done at Duke more.

One of my old pastors used to say that it was funny how when someone got "called" to a different church, it always seemed to be a bigger church with a higher salary.

Skip reported it on Undisputed this morning. Said he will be out 3-4 weeks.

Skip Bayless reported Monday that Hunter will miss 3-4 with a lacerated liver, though Sanders didn't confirm whether that's the exact injury Hunter is dealing with.

All of this Colorado hype is comical. I mean the guy had lil wayne performing as they walked out of the tunnel....in Boulder, CO. I'm not buying any of this hype at this point. 

The Buffs better enjoy it, he'll bolt in a couple years for the next opportunity.

He also had The Rock on campus all day. He's had ton of other celebrities as well. Not sure why Lil Wayne stands out. He's also on both ESPN and Fox debate shows.

 

This has always been Prime.

I just meant the godawful performance during their walkout. I know wayne has toured the facility during the offseason and whatnot.

Yep. HBCU was really important to Deion at that time because Deion happened to be coaching at an HBCU. Now he's strutting around Boulder looking like Lil Nas X. 😂

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
