The Prime era at sCUm will be a trainwreck in slow motion, it's already happening.
more fun talking $hit on them than boring iowaI'm all for hating Colorado, but we should probably stop making a ****ing billion Colorado threads on our board
also, how is Wisconsin at #68? wtf is that all about... Is Fickle on vacation lolOnly 2 of their commits have signed, their fax machine broke? 😆
#63 ranked class though, not bad for the worst program in P5. We coming. 🤣

I read that a single booster scratched a $10M NIL check for CU after Prime was hired.The meltdown would ensue if they beat us.
I'm pretty sure Colorado football has right in the neighborhood of 9 or 10 fans total nationwide.
That's one reason why I think Sanders was a curious hire. He's betting the farm on his personality coupled with NIL money (the main theme of this recruiting cycle for Colorado was sports cars, bags of cash, and Sanders selling gear with his nickname on it). Where does all that NIL $$$$ come from with the limited interest the football program has?

I don’t really have a favorite team, I cheer for the Iowa schools, Nebraska, Minny and the Kansas schools. If I had a favorite I suppose it would be ISU, but not really. Chill my dude.Spoken like a true Colorado fan. Don’t ever care about their team but when something “good” happens, all of a sudden they are one of your favorite teams.
Sounds like you fit right in with the buffalo fansThe hate on Deion here is really strange. He instantly elevated Colorado’s program. I’m not sure any other coach outside of elites, could have the program in the shape it is right now after a couple weeks. His ego? Every coach has an ego and presents it in different ways. His culture is what you have a problem with. Deion has maintained relevancy and was a cultural icon worshipped by the parents of current recruits. He is putting together a good system in Colorado. Game day coaching? Who knows.. Deion isn’t new to football. These same arguments were used against Frank Martin, he turned out alright despite a tougher mountain to climb.
I’m telling you the reason people are “fauning” over him. I’m excited about Colorado. Never had a care in the world for the Buffs one way or the other but now they are one of my favorite teams.
No buzz words needed. He does it to himself by making his job a fv king a reality tv show Example: See below
Deion is objectively very entertaining and extremely successfulWhy? Because they hired a guy that ran fast 20 years ago?
Deion is objectively very entertaining and extremely successful
If he flops at CU, it’ll be the first time something he touched didn’t turn to gold
Sucks he’s at CU because he’s super easy to root for
We better beat them next year
LolYou think everything he’s touched has turned to gold?
You might want to read up on Prime Academy or his first marriage.
I liked him way better before he did the lambos and purses pics.Deion is objectively very entertaining and extremely successful

Passive-Aggressive is the best way to insult.Rhule just dropped a "no celebrity coaches here" in the recruiting presser. 😆

Show me 1 other coach that has anything like this? He is literally making a documentary while being a coach.. I don't know 1 other coach that is self promoting University branded clothing with his nickname on itWelcome to 2023
He’s not disliked because he put the team in the national spotlight for the first time in decades.The hate on Deion here is really strange. He instantly elevated Colorado’s program.

I never cared much for Sanders and for all I care, he can lose every single game he coaches. But college football's "soul" was sold to the highest bidder long before Deion ever got involved, and long before NIL and the transfer portal existed.The sentiment is that CFB is losing its soul, and people like Deion are hitting the fast forward on that happening.
If it took till now to question his character then those people aren't bright to begin with.I still think he will be a force to reckon with.
Who knows though. Maybe “Get lost, kid, so I can make room for better players than you!” made people question his character.
Speak softly and carry a big stick! Then we can puff up our chests after beating them.Those recruits are getting hard to find for Coach Prime. At least he has a quarterback. We are going to destroy those fools.
There are a thousands of schools who would love to have some of the most unqualified power 5 players available...just maybe not power 5 schools. Scholarships are annual, kids can leave them, quit them and coaches MUST have the ability to not renew contracts of players they didn't recruit. Prime is likely addressing issues within the most pathetic program in college football and releasing 13 players might motivate those who are left and those coming in. I feel bad for a lot of people in the world but kids playing at the highest level, who have the ability to make money off of said position have nothing entitled...go play lower division to get the experience.Wished he wouldn't have threw 13 kids out on their ass.....but he does entertain.
It is a hard balance...Rhule has now left three teams in 6 years. Can you care deeply about the guys in the room while also looking for better opportunities? Can you care deeply for the community and program while also looking for an upgrade? At the very least he is a great actor and seems to hire them as well. Probably an upgrade over the last 5 coaches who couldn't hide their contempt or incompetence.
He suckered Dylan Edwards in from Derby. KSThose recruits are getting hard to find for Coach Prime. At least he has a quarterback. We are going to destroy those fools.
You know what, this is a really good quote and one other thing, so far, it seems/feels like Rhule wants to be at NU.
Yes.It is a hard balance...Rhule has now left three teams in 6 years. Can you care deeply about the guys in the room while also looking for better opportunities?

And in another thread he is praising the OL play and it’s coaching. He must have been watching a different team than I was.

What’s funny is Kirk Ferentz says the same thing about their horrendous OL and OL coach. But Iowa fans aren’t happy about those comments.
The reason Rhule and Ferentz are both saying that is because they have no ability to improve personnel immediately. Sticking with what they have is their only option.
The reason Deion isn’t saying that about his team is he thinks he can go get something better immediately. Time will tell if he can.

Deion leads with honesty, that is his schtick...brutal honesty...he has walked the walk in everything he has done...been successful at everything he put his mind to from football to baseball to broadcasting to preaching to business to politics...he can't suddenly become politically correct.And in another thread he is praising the OL play and it’s coaching.

I’ve been trying to tell you guys. Fickell is a doofus.also, how is Wisconsin at #68? wtf is that all about... Is Fickle on vacation lol
The stories on how they treated their commits probably didn’t help him. People will probably forget that pretty quickly.He will get players, likely really good ones. Will be curious what he can do with them and how they handle adversity
