"That's a bold strategy, Cott...Nah hell man, that's just stupid!" 😕

Everyone on the Colorado team about to turn into that a hole from Remember the Titans that let the defender through and got the QB knocked out.

Meanwhile in Michigan...

There was word that the school was preparing to give Harbaugh a contract extension that would have made him the highest paid coach in college football but it's now on hold.

The NCAA needs to get this poo figured out ASAP. Michigan looks damn good. Very possible we could be looking at a vacated title in a couple of years.

That would be fine behind the scenes.  That's not what Deion did.  He went to the media and told the media all those kids would be gone. 

I don't know things will be much different.    I think there are questions about how playing for Deion actually is.  Same for coaching for him.  I wouldn't want my uber talented kid playing for him.  See Travis Hunter as the example of why not.   I also think it might be hard for him to get the type players he needs to actually round out the roster that makes a good team.  The non-super stars types.  Deion doesn't look attractive unless you have odds to be part of his reality show. 

You just seem to be holding him to a high standard.

 

That Colorado program won 1 game all last season. You wouldn't be saying this for any other coach in the country.

 

Deion has already won if we being honest.

To be fair, no other coach in the country would be publicly saying he's booting his entire OL after the season is over when he still has four games to play.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I would blast any HC that went to the media with 4 games left and said he would be replacing his OL next year. 

I would blast any coach HC that has done what Deion did with Travis Hunter. 

Deion isn't being held to some weirdly high standard with any of that.   

Deion is essentially is a fake TV character.  Always has been.  And in all honesty, he gets pass on a lot of behavior most coaches wouldn't get.

Either you love him or hate him no in between.

that's how people like to frame most discussions. 

I think Sanders has/had potential to be a good HC.   And I frankly was very high on him at Jackson State.  Really liked what he did there.  

I don't think think from the start to present day at Colorado has been an impressive example of Sanders the HC.  Think it is highlighting a lot of his flaws.  And frankly, I think the fact his kids play there is a double edged sword for him as HC.  It's basically bringing out and highlighting his flaws.  Probably creating them too.

I mean his team is pretty flawed. Defense has been trash since the beginning of the season. The Oline is the worst in the country. He has skill position players but this game is won in the trenches. 

Not sure we are questioning him as a HC when he actually gets the big boys on the line. I think next year is when we can truly judge him. He looked great early on, now he looks bad as of late. Im just looking at his roster and he really can't do anything until he gets all of his recruits. This team was created over night.

    • Interestingly I think we have kind of of gone through this as an organization. Richardson implemented an FO driven tank. Bad roster, no cash spent, coach uninterested. It may have been for different reasons but I think the results were the same. A team that wasn't going to win many if any games. We ended up with the #1 pick. Cam Newton came in and changed the franchise. It worked, but Cam himself pointed to the losing culture in the locker room needing to be changed. It probably took about 2-3 years for that to happen. Tank worked pretty damn well for us. Cam is one of one. Not another like him, everyone can't deliver on his draft status AND change a culture basically on his own.  So as an exercise here are the last 30 #1 picks. If you tanked and got to pick #1 how many of these guys do you think were worth it? Not just good players, but franchise changers. Guys who will take your culture and shift it so the tank was actually worth it. I would say maybe 9 or 10 guys would be worth a tank, pending the last 5 picks?    2025: Cam Ward (Miami (FL)) - Tennessee Titans 2024: Caleb Williams (USC) – Chicago Bears 2023: Bryce Young (Alabama) – Carolina Panthers 2022: Travon Walker (Georgia) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2021: Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2020: Joe Burrow (LSU) – Cincinnati Bengals 2019: Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) – Arizona Cardinals 2018: Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) – Cleveland Browns 2017: Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) – Cleveland Browns 2016: Jared Goff (California) – Los Angeles Rams 2015: Jameis Winston (Florida State) – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2014: Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina) – Houston Texans 2013: Eric Fisher (Central Michigan) – Kansas City Chiefs 2012: Andrew Luck (Stanford) – Indianapolis Colts 2011: Cam Newton (Auburn) – Carolina Panthers 2010: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) – St. Louis Rams 2009: Matthew Stafford (Georgia) – Detroit Lions 2008: Jake Long (Michigan) – Miami Dolphins 2007: JaMarcus Russell (LSU) – Oakland Raiders 2006: Mario Williams (North Carolina State) – Houston Texans 2005: Alex Smith (Utah) – San Francisco 49ers 2004: Eli Manning (Mississippi) – San Diego Chargers 2003: Carson Palmer (USC) – Cincinnati Bengals 2002: David Carr (Fresno State) – Houston Texans 2001: Michael Vick (Virginia Tech) – Atlanta Falcons 2000: Courtney Brown (Penn State) – Cleveland Browns 1999: Tim Couch (Kentucky) – Cleveland Browns 1998: Peyton Manning (Tennessee) – Indianapolis Colts 1997: Orlando Pace (Ohio State) – St. Louis Rams 1996: Keyshawn Johnson (USC) – New York Jets 1995: Ki-Jana Carter (Penn State) – Cincinnati Bengals
