I love Deion he is a legend, it’s a great story but please stop the hype.  Reality is coming

I dunno man. I’m sold. It’s not like Deion was some coordinator from Tulane. He is legit one of the greatest American athletes of all time and is real AF. He transcended sports, knows how to preach and sell, and can obviously recruit. Especially now with cheating and paying players being allowed….if he can keep the talent coming in and keep a complimentary staff around him, good things are gonna happen.

Nobody believed in him which is why he only got offers from Colorado, Cincinatti, USF.

 

State is bigger than all those schools. If they wanted Deion they could have easily got him.

CU has been terrible in recent years but they've won a national championship in my lifetime. If you can win titles in the 90s you can do it now. Especially with constant conference shuffling now. If you're winning and have buzz and offer a new television market you have value and CU couldn't easily offer a P5 conference the trifecta.

CU is a much better opportunity than NCSU. That fanbase is desperate for ANY success and the program has proven they can build a contender. It's Nebraska in a much better location and minus the delusion.

No it isn’t. Colorado has a Natty. It’s the signature state school that everyone in the state aside from CSU fans like. nC State is probably not the most popular team even in Raleigh. They don’t have the cheese or notoriety for a coach like prime. To be fair I don’t think Carolina would go after him either.

Not saying long term…just this season.  This team is on a wave but this season with that schedule realistically they will finish 500

Seemed like every time someone made a play for App tonight it was a transfer from Michigan or Miami or some other "name" school. I agree. You can't tell me Bama's third stringers aren't better than our third stringers.

I also think the strategy of going after seasoned upperclassmen from smaller schools can be big for a program like UNC football. Coachable guys who play hard. I think this strategy would work better for college basketball: I.e. Pitt and Kansas State last year. But the portal is an asset if you can navigate it.

Their schedule looks VERY manageable. Even more so now with how they are playing. College FB is gonna be the Deion show this year. If they can avoid injuries especially to the QB I don’t know what’s gonna happen but I wouldn’t want to play them

Oh it absolutely is. See Brady Manek.

Yep.  We weren’t even bowl eligible last year. 

I don’t think App sucks. It was a joke. Nobody in the state of North Carolina who watches football and remotely understands it has any disrespect for App. They are always up for the challenge and have a solid culture.

Respectfully have to disagree…they have a brutal schedule IMO.

      Bryce Young Is a Symptom, Not the Disease

      By strato · Posted

      He has made some good throws yes. His arm isn’t great by any professional measure though It might be decent enough, but the poor footwork inhibits it.  So he has to really focus on that and from what I’ve seen he is not consistent.    peace.

      Bryce laughing (from game day thread)

      By Icege · Posted

      If only Bryce were 8'1" then CJ wouldn't have needed Woody Marks to carry him against the Titans nor the defense to carry him with 3 picks vs. Cooper Rush. If he were a real QB, he'd have thrown for over 250yds and the Texans wouldn't be 2-3. /s See? I can do the same dumb, lame poo that y'all do. Doesn't this make the board a better experience overall? 🙂

      Chances against the Cowboys

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      Their defense is on track to be worse than ours last year. Their run D is in the bottom half but their pass D is horrible.    32nd overall D, 32nd passD, 23rd rush D We are going to have to throw the ball against them, which means down field where they are vulnerable. Problem is Turnover Fred struggles to push the ball down the field and we have the 26th ranked pass offense. Running will help but will have to beat them through the air. On the flip side, Dallas’ offense is awesome.    1st overall, 3rd pass, 8th run.    But Evero’s defense is ranked 12th right now with the pass D around 10th and rush D around 14th.    If we can take care of the football (looking at Bryce) and we make plays down the field (also looking at Bryce) we can win, yes.
