You're losing me, man. It's like your responses don't have anything to do with what I said.

Can I say it any plainer? I'M EXTREMELY SKEPTICAL BUT I HOPE DEION SUCCEEDS AT COLORADO!

That makes me a "sniveling hater"? :headscratch:

Again: you okay, bro?

I'm gonna go out on a pretty stable limb and say everyone that was in any way associated with Prime Prep is much worse off today than they ever were before.

HBCU's will stop getting the 4-5 star recruits without the Primetime name attached, and they see that they can't get drafted in the NFL from those schools. In reality all Deion did was get a few FBS level players to beat up on lesser schools and bankrolled that into a P5 job. I don't expect he will see anywhere near the same results at CU. His ceiling would be getting them to a bowl game, and that likely takes a few seasons because he won't have the depth to compete with actual P5 players lining up across from his players.

Prime prep lol. How much money did he take? How much money did he give to the school? I’d love to know

He has no business trying to start a school. Maybe the vision was good but too many people with their hand in the cookie jar is what that sounds like.

He was good at football and baseball. Good lesson of staying in your lane. Jackson St is better off now. Oh the horror he took a better job in a better city for way more money. What an ass lol

You’re already lost bro. Lol

The guy just went undefeated at an HBCU and landed the #1 recruit in the country with trash facilities. Can you really not figure it out?

Lincoln Riley is gonna be better? Really?

Great, based on that, let's hand him a major program and see how he does.

"I'm comin'!"

So, let's hear you're prediction.

Might also be easier in a few years to step from Pac12 to ACC for the FSU job he wants than ACC to ACC.

I think it’s more about his son. He could most definitely be at colorado for 2 years and be out when his son leaves. Does he continue to follow his son? Seems that way but I’m not sure how good he is or if he can play on Sunday

He took a lot, and left everyone with audits + FBI probes + kids without a place to play football. I have no issue with him going to Colorado. I just don't think his success at Jackson St was because he is some great coach. he did the equivalent of me taking my allowable 3 best players from my AAA team down to a rec team and annihilating everyone in a tournament. Yeah great you got a ring beating up on lesser players, but what did you really accomplish? Didn't get any better.

I will be the first to say -- I know very little about HBCU schools, but I know they'd go years without getting anyone drafted. Sanders brought eyes to HBCU schools and the players. The Lions drafted a DE from Jackson State -- they activated him from the practice squad two weeks ago and all he has done is get 3 sacks in the 2 games he has played.

I think you underestimate what he will be able to do. He has hired HC's to coach alongside him, Kent State HC is now his offensive coordinator, Willie Taggart former Oregon/FSU coach with be his defensive coordinator. I think you will see Deion bringing in top 15, top 10 type classes, as majority of the top recruits are african american and truth be told, while Sanders is cut throat as you see in the CU team meeting, he looks like a fun coach to play for.

I think he will be competitive next year, but it will take a few years to build depth in the program, to have sustained success. It will all come down to what his kid looks like against an enormous step up in competition for a QB.

Again you are beyond blind. He will take Lincoln Riley to the woodshed.

Do you not understand how coaching works?

If you land top tier talent, you tend to have a good team. When you have kids that want to play for you, you do even better. Do you pay attention to recruiting? Lol

I think it's exciting and can't wait to see what happens. I hope it pays off for Colorado.
