[@1876Oregon]

The hilarious thing is…Deion could’ve kept the team he had inherited, and they still would’ve won four games, which we’ve seen from plenty of other coaches, that teach players. The difference is he wants a bunch of little Deion Sanders, so that’s what he’s trying to find. But the same teams Deion played on had one Deion Sanders… And a bunch of regular guys like the ones that were on Colorado already. I said this before, and I’ll say it again… If everyone in the world was like Deion Sanders, this world would be absolute chaos. But back to the team he screwed up. He’s going for the transfer portal team, because that’s easier than coaching players up. He’s literally letting other coaches coach them up from other programs, Because he can’t coach players up. With the dismissal of 71 players when he first got to Colorado… And we’ve seen it again when he blamed every player that left, or every player that didn’t improve Colorado’s bad coaching in 2023.

[@jakeMontejo3272]

Deion knows how a championship NFL team is supposed to look and be like. But those were professionals, not kids. He’s still new to coaching college kids, especially at the P5 level. Being a HC, there’s a learning curve and he’s still learning. He needs at least 4-5 years to really evaluate his HC acumen.

[@stebo5562]

The top college teams recruit the best players. That’s just reality

[@messagetous]

Good show

[@ryancowles5633]

Philip you’re totally wrong on the apples to oranges take. You’re talking about recruiting. There’s always been 3 avenues to recruiting in college, and still is, one is just easier to do now with the TP. 1 is high school recruiting. 2. Is the Transfer Portal. And 3 is JUCO. Now Fran is taking the HS recruiting route and getting the athletes and players he wants to form HIS team. He’s playing the long game. The traditional game. Develop the players to be how you want them to be or why you can see them to be. Now Deion is only using the TP it seems. The problem with that is the quality of player you’re getting and what prior teachings you’re getting out of it. You’re not getting Caleb Williams, Bo Nixes, and 4+ lineman and #1 starters from other teams from the TP. You’re typically getting the 3-4th string players or grad transfers with 1 year of eligibility remaining. And those players you’re getting from the TP only have 1-2 years of eligibility remaining typically so it’s not like you can develop them the way you want them to be. It also doesn’t allow enough time for the team go gel and get to truly know each other. Take the O Line for example. Your lineman have to learn not just the plays, the blocking scheme, their own footwork but also the lineman’s next to them’s footwork to make sure they don’t shift too far or set too far to the side or too far back and step on their ankles or feet. There’s so many nuances that come with each room that only being around the group for 1-2 years isn’t enough time. If Deion keeps with the TP route his cap is 6-6 simply because he’s getting the bronze and copper pieces from other teams 9/10 times and not the silver or even gold medals needed to take that next step.

[@machiavellisprince5986]

Deion could have easily gone 6-6 WITH a bad O line last season. Utah was stolen by the refs. Several games were impacted by Travis Hunter and Shiloh being injured. Most team that beat them were within 3 to 7 points. Again, with no O line. So 6-6 can’t be the cap.

[@hotdangers]

Generally I agree with you but Caleb Williams and Bo Nix are bad examples because they both transferred. I agree that Deion isn’t getting that caliber of player out of the portal and he’d be more likely to get those guys if he tried harder to recruit high school.

[@campbellcampbell9059]

The Athletic was a hit piece on Deion as the Old Boy Network doesn’t like uppity black head football coaches adapting to the current model of college football. If The Athletic wanted to do a piece on the consequences of The Portal they would have covered under college football programs and players. They targeted Deion on purpose. In regard to the portal as of so far it seems to be working out. Jedd Fisc’s accomplishments at Arizona is the perfect benchmark. Fisch was brought in to resurrect a Wildcat program that lost 12 games straight. He went 1-11 in 2021, 5-7 in 2022 and 10-2 in 2023. Deion was brought in to a really, really, really bad 1-11 Buffs team. He used the first portal of Dec ‘22 and the Soring ‘23 portal and got better. The team went out and won 4-8, losing 6 games by a score or less. He’s now gone out and gotten better in the December ‘23 portal and has gotten better with the spring ‘24 portal. The core of the team has been together for a year now, they’ll have used the second year of the portal to address holes and fill out the 2 deep. What makes anyone think the Buffs won’t win more games this coming year? The PAC12 was a strong conference last year (2 teams in the Top 6 in the end of season rankings) and the Buffs move to a very competitive BIG12… but what makes anyone think the Buffs won’t improve on their record from last season. Buffs win 8 games this season. Deion will be outperforming Fisch’s accomplishments in his first two years. So, no… Deion isn’t getting preferential treatment… it’s called resurrecting a program. The two banning buffoons of this podcast have no sense of context.

@@JohnSpringer-tq3vb well, the over under is 5.5 wins. Which means they expect the Buffs to win 5 or 6 games. Which would peg him exactly even or better with Jedd Fisch who won 5 games after his second year at Arizona and people at that time were praising what an incredible job he was doing. The reality, is you don’t like him (just say that) but you can’t say he’s a terrible coach after one year. His team won more games than the oddsmakers gave and all the media talking pundits they would do. So, no. You are incorrect sir. I still have Buffs winning 8 and even then people will complain how awful he is as a coach and how bad the Buffs are as a team. We’ll season, seasons not that far away.

Deion has always positioned himself as the coach that will turn that boys into men and care about them like these other coaches can't/don't which has been absolutely untrue he has more turnover on his roster than pretty much anybody in the country because it was never about developing young men its about winning (which they aren't and i don't foresee that happening in '24) just like every other coach at this level, his schtick is disingenuous and that whole trolling CFB players on Twitter was so childish no leader of any multi-million business should be doing that but the Neon Deion Nuthuggers refuse to hold him accountable to level its giving cult, and just like in Waco in '94 this operation is gonna burn to the ground.

@brianfisher4701 exactly my point the point in just a few years those portal guys came in better than their own hs recruits & were the main contributors to turning FSU back into a winning program. Context Prime had no multi year 4 star recruits already in house so it was even easier for an fsu or oregon washington to do it. Prime building completely from scratch that's the part that's never been seen before because it wasn't even possible before 2021

[@jefferyhopson6276]

It’s interesting when you was making the compare between three teams that had a one and 11 season. There was no mention that CU average loss rate was 30 points!! Also when you look at CU being in a PAC 12 which was one of the most competitive divisions of all is a representation of the results. The climb up is much harder when you in the most competitive division and you inherit the team that lost on average by 30 points still difference between apples and oranges within the three teams that was 1-11

[@hotdangers]

When you only keep 9 players from that 1-11 team acting like you coached up a 1-11 team to a 4-8 team is ridiculous.

[@Only1mrmoore]

You talked about two other teams that had records of 1/8 but won more games than Colorado, but what was their strength of schedule in comparison to Colorado’s?

CU is a 5-6 win team this season. Wake up this team is a damn joke! Everyone outside of Boulder knows that!

Your parents were prejudice

[@diggs3006]

Hey Andy how about you do some actual research & tell your fans about all the 4☆ & 5☆ freshman that have hit the portal over the last 2yrs with 3 & 4 yrs eligibility so you & your fanbase can stop acting like building through the portal can't be done

The Deion glazer got cooked when Northwestern and USF were brought up.

[@outlawtakeover]

He made his point. Actually, the media chooses to ignore those boring coaches.

[@roddozier528]

Colorado 1 -11 was way worse. Non competitive. Colorado schedule was way harder than them others school. Keep a real perspective.

[@brianfisher4701]

@@roddozier528 Northwestern was also 1-11 so no Colorado was not way worse they were the same and Northwestern is in the Big 10 their conference is way harder you obviously dont watch college football.USF was also 1-11 you dont know what you are talking about.

[@brianfisher4701]

@@outlawtakeover He never made his point the Deion glazer didnt realize that Northwestern and USF were both 1-11.

[@outlawtakeover]

@brianfisher4701 he used both as an example, saying they didn't even get the shine from the media. He is saying the media polarizes deion sanders, shoving him down your throat, creating the hate itself. Deion sanders has his own media for the program but guess what on3, 247, rivals, epsn, foxsports have attached their platfrom to him and the program since hate sells. They are more people who don't subscribe but spend enough time writing negative comments just like in politics we like blue or red etc because that's what we like etc etc

pull of an in home visit? What every other coach does? WOW

[@grizUSMC0331]

One day you might realize Coach prime isn't Jo bob ordinary College Football Coach If he goes to someone's House it's gonna shut down the whole damn neighborhood same way with a highschool and if you say it wouldn't your lieing to yourself CP is A Icon in black Culture Point Blank period! 🤝👍🦬🦬😤

Jeez this is so bad lol..

[@101gonzalez]

we talking about football and dude is bringing up mc hammer and baseball 😂😂 thats why nobody takes Colorado serious

[@robertvose7310]

I am the same age as Deion and he has not grown up yet...I watched him at Fl St. and he da same...

[@timjackson2810]

No deion can't separate deion the player from coach prime. If you know a lot of people don't believe in all the bs, than why are deion supporters so confused. This is no different than any other aspect of life, you seek attention, you get attention, good and bad. It's one thing when others pat you on the back, say good job. It's another to give yourself glory and accolades. Hell dumb ass rappers consistently brag about how much money they have, flaunt jewelry and cars then get robbed. I wonder why? Maybe it has something to do with the attention they bring on theirselves. Maybe! Then again maybe it's the child like behavior he exhibits every time you see him. Furthermore isn't coaching about teaching kids how to be better players and get the most out of their ability, also being a mentor and serve as a bridge for these young men transitioning into adult hood. I tend to think the backlash with deion is less about his ability to coach or teach because he does know the game and knows what it takes, but his antics. Self serving grandioso, look at me, I did this, I am that. Has never sat well historically. that's across all races,ethnicities, and nationalities. To sum it up some people are easy to root for, and some people are easy to root against ( ⬆️ Example above). No likes a person who takes all the credit for things that go right, but accepts no credit for the things that go wrong, no one likes the rich kid that's a spoiled brat, no one likes a loser, no one likes a liar. No Sir. Now Sit Down Be Humble

There are several channels. Well Off, Thee Pregame and Reach The People that are allowed on to the practice field and in to meeting rooms. We say they "Quit" not because we are mindless idiots that listen to what Prime says. We can literally watch them quit. Like when Benson went after David Conner........Guess who hit the portal? Come on Man....Give us a little bit of credit. This is literally the most chronicled team in college football, but for those of us that immerse ourselves in the content, somehow we are incapable of processing what we see everyday. It has to be we believe what we believe because Prime said it. You can watch and see on any of those channels who is about to hit the portal, not because Prime tells us what to believe.

[@hotdangers]

Prime allows people who portray his narrative from his point of view on the field. You don’t see everything, the footage is edited. You deserve no credit because you can’t see how you are being manipulated.

[@BkAlaskan]

@@hotdangers oh boy…I see the Mensa meeting has let out. Do yourself a favor. Go look at the footage from January 2023 of the team in the weight room and look at the team today. You are the one being manipulated . I can see empirically with my own eyes the difference in size and body composition . You people hear stuff on these shows and you repeat it without doing your own research. All the video is there from when Prime started to now. You can clearly see the evolution of the team. But you keep believing that we are all idiots and can’t see things with our own eyes. As if we are Primes minions just believing everything he says. We’ll find out when the season starts who’s right.

[@JourTheeOnly]

Deion is gonna do a home visit with Juju Lewis thats the one idk if he gets him but thats the one that keeps this ship together.

[@robertvose7310]

4-8 talking shit! Typical...

Fact is this you guys know football CU definitely got better behind all the smoking mirrors he looks at the transfer portal as free agency and high school kids as the draft picks CU will be much better this year in Big 12 that is widely open

What are you talking about? You are replacing non-starters... With more non-starters from other schools. The only difference is folks have a year of tape on you guys now. Cross your fingers for that 4-8.

[@jacobr5934]

Every once in awhile I am reminded of how stupid the average person really is. Those who ever thought Deion Sanders was anything more than a used car salesman, are a good example of that.

[@SuperMogul]

Where have you Coached at?! Your opinion isn't valid. Lol

@@SuperMogul it’s not about if I’ve coached. It’s about being able to simply read people and their actions. Anyone who’s honest with themselves can’t be surprised by Deion 🤣
