At a point, I kind of shrug. He obviously was not what some Talking Heads pretended he was. He’s just a certain kind of decent coach who is going to fail at Colorado, which is gonna happen the most coaches.

And it’ll put him at a modest level for people who are not all in on the “coaching” side of things.

I always liked Deion and I liked his brashness when it came to coaching.  It's refreshing to NOT hear all of the usual coachspeak and platitudes.

But there's a point where you still have to coach the team and win the games, or the talk is just hype without substance.

I don't think we should be ready to close the book on Prime in the FBS, but obviously the results this season aren't good enough to justify all the other stuff.

Yeah, I'm assuming improvement, obviously.

And also the ACC is terrible.

MSU's top commit just gave an interview where he said when he visited Colorado for an unofficial, he never actually met Prime or the WR coach, so he cancelled his official

SI.com: “Shedeur and Shilo Sanders of Colorado are putting their NIL money to good use. The Colorado quarterback has the second-highest NIL valuation, according to On3, sitting at $4.7 million. Shilo, a defensive player for the Buffaloes, has the 17th-highest NIL valuation at $1.1 million…To show Deion appreciation, the Sanders kids, including Deion Jr., bought him a home.”

and, are the kids really getting paid the $4.7 million and NIL valuation at $1.1 million in Boulder???

I think they should transfer to programs where they can make more money and just support Pop financially

I still don't understand all the hate.
I guess I never will.

He didn't vote HIMSELF "Sportsman of the Year," did he?

The CU roster is vastly DEMONSTRABLY better than before he got there.

Just because pop culture chooses to shine a spotlight on someone for a time doesn't mean we outside of it's target demographic MUST hate on them.

I'll hold off judgement on him as a P5 HC once he gets some linemen.  Maybe he never does and he flames out.  Maybe he does and CU has some 10-win seasons.  But as long as the wins trend up over time, what's the big problem here?!?
