Checking receipts to prove Coach Prime's estimated $113 million economic impact

There's no doubt Coach Prime brought attention to Boulder. We don't have receipts to prove a claim that CU's 6 home football games made as big an impact as they say.

Damn …. That is insane. Deion is the man !!!

[@quentonhaynes3645]

If you are not challenging the Prime affect, why do the story? He could always leave and so things can return to the old way of small businesses not making money. Y'all do anything for some sort of story.

[@seekelevation]

I look forward to the upcoming "challenges" for the impacts made from all college coaches, school presidents, upgraded facilities, local city officials, free wifi expansion, dog parks with heated grass, parking ticket counseling, free mocha latte machines throughout the city. Was your news station impacted positively? Lets do a National Impact Challenge! We'll make sure all these "impactors" are held accountable for thier questionable impacts.

Who is the they that don't want you to "challenge" what was said and just repeat it because it feels good? Also, what is the purpose of reporting on something as "facts" when you yourself also say you don't have the full picture or numbers i.e. facts to prove/disprove challenge/not challenge something? I'm not the sharpest pencil in the box but this seems like a non-story and lazy reporting.

“We can’t prove it or disprove it, but we’re not trying to discredit Coach Prime…” ??? If you can’t prove or disprove then there is no fact check and you should be quiet til you find the facts…

LOL what kinda story is this? dont they have investigative journalist ? what baby channel is this

[@bmpowerednow07]

This story provided nothing of substantive value. The story could have been there was a economic boost with a "sizeable impact". You could have gotten interviews from small business owners that benefited from the increase in business. Then the economic take could have ended with the $113 million maybe estimated yet we know its welcomed by the community. My final take:May you have a more compelling storyline next time.

Maybe those viewers mr anchor man is being so condescending to shouldn't watch his news broadcast. Let's see how quickly he humbles himself

[@dwashing1032]

Clearly an example of not liking Prime as a person but going along because most others like him and you wanna fit in all the while waiting with crossed fingers to see failure. Colorado football wasn't even thought about last year. Wished Deion never went there.
