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.

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.

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. 😂

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.

 

I haven't seen many people rooting against Deion and CU.  Quite the opposite actually.  I know that I will be watching all their games and rooting for them big time.  Its a great story.  They MIGHT wanna tone the swag down a little bit though.  I mean, it was Week 3 and they have freaking Lil Wayne rapping them out the tunnel, after they were legit the worst team in the country before this year.

I had actually never heard of Prime Academy until reading this thread.  Sounds an awful lot like the Bishop Sycamore model...

      Where would the Panthers be if they sat Bryce Young last season?

      By CRA · Posted

      I mean, poster also said Young or Mahomes, it would have made no difference.  If there was way to actually test that hypothetical, I would sell every belonging I have and wager that Mahomes would indeed yield different results.  Mahomes automatically changes the D coverages.  He automatically changes the threats.  He attacks and threatens a field different vastly different.   We have seen good QBs and great QBs play behind horrific OLs in a single season....and they don't default into being the worst team in the NFL.  Frank Reich was old, stubborn and not creative enough to deal with an anomaly QB like Bryce.  The best QB in the NFL wouldn't be handicapping Frank, they would be enhancing Frank.  Starting week 1, Frank didn't even trust Bryce with basics....Frank gave him I what I feel comfortable with you being able to do offense.  Which took throws and plays off the table because Bryce couldn't do early on what a bad vet in Dalton could.  Mahomes would not yield the same results.

      All I have to say to this really, is it sounds nice and downgrades Stroud to make Young look better is more like what this take does. Look at the WR numbers the year before and then the year with Stroud. He made them better, not the other way around. That’s my opinion. I appreciate you designating that it was yours. Many state these things as facts.

      but what if.....and here me out....the pro Bryce Young stuff was coming from people under Fitterer.  You know, the people who are employed to feed him that input.  And they happen to all still be employed here.  when Rhule was fired I desperately wanted Fitterer fired.  It set things up for Fitterer to be the sacrificial lamb the next time things went poorly....every time we move on from a disaster, we are retaining a heavy % of the folks who helped bring the disaster we are "moving on from".  Everyone argued Fitterer probably could be great and it was all Rhule.  We are just repeating the same stuff to a degree IMO.   Panthers needed a clean slate post Rhule era.  Needed another post Frank era.  Things were just too bad or too dysfunctional IMO to be salvaging so much.   We keep failing to do that.
