The Colorado Loss... The Aftermath

Think you are right about Shadeur but Hunter could end up being a really star
I think Hunter has the athletic ability, but he relies completely on it to beat out bad competition. When he can't just rely on make up speed because he is just sitting on a route, he's gonna do bad. I could see him converting to just being a WR at the NFL level, and not sure he is a good enough route runner to do anything on Sundays.

Basically he has been have a great time with Deion, but he doesn't appear to be getting skilled. He's just an athletic freak who can outclass guys who will never play on sundays.
 
I think Dabo and Deion are polar opposites of the transfer portal era and both are fatally flawed in their approach.

Dabo has to recognize that you can’t be the only one playing by the old rules. That certainly won’t stop kids in your program from transferring. And you need to be able to plug holes that inevitably arise.

Deion needs to recognize you can’t turn your roster over every year with mercenaries especially at platoon positions like OL and DL. There needs to be a culture and everything I’ve read beyond the bling and watches is complete locker room dysfunction. His patchwork OL is going to get his son killed and it’s not their fault it’s his for not developing them but making them the patsies for his failure. They’re all going to leave after the season. Deion if he hangs around will have learned nothing.

I think after the next game where Shedouche puts up 400+ yards and 3+ TD's he will shut down for the season. He needs an eye popping stat line then some core-muscle injury that will sideline him for the season. Gotta protect that draft stock, and can't hurt it or yourself if you aren't on the field.
 
I remember when they played NDSU first game of season, and it was a sellout. Did anyone see the window that popped up showing things like: how the housing market in and around Boulder increased, other things related to living there increased, and Colorado merchandise sales increased 505%!!!

I even wonder if the Buffs were to win 8 games this season, if he would stay. It is all for his boys, so I doubt it. I don't see them winning 8 games, or even close. Then, he leaves. Those "coordinator buddies" will be out of a job, right? Those transfer players will be getting out as quick as possible. A major clusterF.

No, there is no chance he stays. He is only in it to be able to play daddy-ball for his sons.

Hunter is a stud. I’m just glad he’s on a team UGA doesn’t need to be concerned about

My only concern about him going forward is wear and tear from playing on both sides of the ball.
 
We'll see how he does in the combine. I could see him just absolutely sucking in the combine when he's not going against JUCO players.
I don’t know. He’s mobile and has a pretty big arm. Some team will take a chance on him. Probably the Falcons because they’re the most retarded team in the league on draft day

Exactly. The teams that use the portal most successfully are teams that use it similar to how free agency is used in professional sports. You use it to fill holes and/or land a high level player that you weren't able to get when they were first available.
 
I agree, but he SHOULD be drafted after the 5th. His name and his daddy are going to get him drafted like Bronny did. And Sanders is going to destroy a locker room.
Huge difference between Shedeur and Bronny.

Shedeur has talent.

To me the jury is still out on that talent. He has a big arm and a 2-cent brain. He is the black Jeff George as far as I have seen. He has zero game management skills and feasts on "go deep and I'll hit you" over guys that will never set foot on an NFL field. He excels in broken plays, he doesn't set his feet and he can't read a pre-snap defense. He's a guy that if he were humble and willing to sit behind an NFL QB for two years he could probably learn and be a legit QB. But I don't think the guy knows how to work to get what he wants and his athleticism ain't gonna bail him out in the NFL.
 
Fuck Colorado.

To Raiola's credit he can read and avoid the rush pretty well. He can make throws on the run.

Raiola was 76% passing to Sanders 56%.

Colorado's not a team. They're two very talented players (Shedeur Sanders & Travis Hunter) surrounded by yet another flipped roster of guys who don't have a lot of time together.

If Big 12 teams can limit the damage Sanders and Hunter can inflict (like Nebraska did) then it's gonna be a long season for the Puffs.




They are 1 great player, 1 average player then a bunch of eh

Part of me feels bad for Hunter getting duped by the Deion BS and wasting his collegiate career as he has, because he would've been elite no matter where he went. That said, he made the decision knowing how shitty a coach Deion is. He's not a pro level CB but he is certainly a pro WR, but his stats have been shit playing for this team compared to if he went to any number of other elite schools.
 
Why is Shedouche too lazy to open his mouth to talk? Is his jaw wired shut? Is he practicing to be a ventriloquist?
 
And if he wasn't unlikable already

He’s not wrong but you do not publicly throw your teammates under the bus like that. That’s terrible leadership and frankly stupid. If there’s a revolt on the OL then you can expect more ole’s from the LT especially in contests that are no longer in doubt, because fuck you.

12/9/2024 will be the new Bloody Monday for CU.
 
OMG this honestly keeps getting worse:


A report released over the weekend by DenverSports.com after the blowout loss to the Cornhuskers claims Deion has ordered the Colorado band to not play the fight song when Shedeur scores. The reason? He reportedly wants his son's awful rap song to play instead.

"A year later and the offensive line still doesn’t fight for each other.A year later and the fight song doesn’t even play in the stadium after the quarterback throws a touchdown. Deion Sanders told the band they couldn’t play if his son Shedeur Sanders scores a touchdown so that the loudspeaker can play a recording of his son’s song ‘Perfect Timing,’" Jake Shapiro wrote Saturday night. Colorado didn't return a request for comment by publication.
