Brees would recruit better at LSU than he would at Purdue....for various reasons.

Someone with zero past relationship with anything in the state of Louisiana would recruit better at LSU than Drew Brees would at Purdue.

A Texas accent isn't the same as a southern accent but I suppose it could do in a pinch.

As for Neon, I think "our" guess is he'll do pretty well in time, but not at the highest level, but "we" could be wrong.  A talent upgrade would help, and if he has good assistants as well and is able to set clear expectations and change the culture, they could be competitive in the Pac.

kinda have to agree with Metellus here....Colorado looks like a small ass team...Deion definitely has his work cut out for him. Gonna take a couple off-seasons to turn that roster over where he really wants it when it comes to the trenches.

Wow, as a teacher, the comments section needs to re-do high school. 

What young people without academic goals are doing with the English language is brutal. 
Totally given up on there, their, they're and going with "they" for all of the above.
Gone instead of "going to," when a perfectly good "gonna" would suffice.  Gone is a different word with a different meaning.
.
Just brutal.

Lanuage, and grammar, are fluid.  I got a fax on that recently.

It is, indeed.
But it's normally changing over dozens of generations.  What we have here is mostly educated vs uneducated. 
Each American generation comes up with it's own lingo, but this isn't that.
Examples of that would be terms like low-key, no cap, dead-ass, I'm dying, 304s, gucci, and the exhausting "LET'S GOOOOO"
On a long-enough timeline, we'll have totally separate languages.

My wife often struggles with African American lingo.  She looks at me, and I tell her "It's OK, I speak jive."

She speaks pretty good Spanish though, which is helpful.

Since Deion Sanders took over as the he’d coach of the Colorado Buffaloes, the program has seen some big changes.

They have put together college football’s best transfer class for the 2023 offseason while also landing some solid recruits.

They’ve also had a few players head for the transfer portal.

Sanders memorably suggested that some players should be ready to head to the transfer portal when he first spoke with his players at Colorado.

Some of their players wasted no time taking his advice and quickly entered the portal. Others decided to wait and see what the future held for them.

Today, quite a few more of his players decided to take his advice.

According to On3, running back Jayle Stacks is heading for the transfer portal. Stacks is the 5th player from Colorado to enter the transfer portal today.

There are people who didn't listen to their English teachers and they're driving me crazy.
