Uncle Neely discusses portal movement for Colorado

The transfer portal is open and the first wave of moment came in the form of exits for Colorado, including 5⭐ recruit Cormani McClain. Uncle Neely breaks it all down.

I love the balance, and insight this conversation is bringing about the portal.

[@SoundBathMeditationOnline]

Uncle Neely I have been rocking with you and Mr. Carr since JSU, and I always wait for your take on what's going on! I have recently unfollowed a lot of channels that started off in a good spot, but in their rush to be FIRST with breaking news have turned into the TMZ of college football. These are still young men trying to find their way on a VERY stressful and public path. Yes, this comes with the territory, but there is always a mature and respectful way to report on it. You and Mr. Carr ALWAYS bring the "Breaking News" with respect!! Thank you!

Good morning Tolly Carr and UNC. Professional Benefits= Professional Responsibilities. Love your content vibe today. ✨️ Tolly was on to something.his comment was Spot on. Family I had a very challenging work night on Tuesday, same Trajectory, we hired young men average age 19- 21 making 100k + Complaining about nothing. Work, PeriodT, what happened to the passion, what happened to the drive. Grow the heck up. Fight hard work hard. Responsibilities..love it, Tolly. Excellent content Momma Tia waving

[@MsMargisback]

Wish everyone the best...portal swings both ways. I will say for those who are dawgs if you keep your head down and grind, no better place to shine in this moment. Seems crazy to me you dont expect favoritism at every school. If you are her/him, you are rising like cream to the top.

[@Shelly_R]

Uncle Neely is polite and diplomatic. But I can be more direct here in these "comments streets." This transfer portal is exposing what many of us know, and CP has mentioned. A LOT OF THESE PLAYERS ARE DELUSIONAL ABOUT THEIR TALENT AND THINK THEY SHOULD BE PLAYING IN THE #1 SPOT ALREADY. It appears that a lot of these players are acting on their dreams of being in the NFL, but not in a smart manner. Their best shot of making a college team is staying on the team they are already on and moving up the depth chart. You never know what can happen - and no team can match the marketing pull of CU, hands down. The walk-on Charlie was in a national TV commercial with CP! If I had a son playing at CU, he would have to understand the true capacity of the CU opportunity, and keep his butt on that CU team. As CP said in an interview yesterday, the portal is a battle for the 2's and 3's. Also, he specifically discussed that players should be using back channels (i.e. somebody knows somebody in a program) to find a team BEFORE they hit the portal, and that CU coaches would even help the players find new teams. Finding a new team is best done via private coaches, trainers, high school coaches, other players, etc. Furthermore, will the players' egos let them go to a G5 school, similar to 5-star Malachi Nelson transferring from USC to Boise State? Sadly, many players will be stuck in the portal - no college, no team, no scholarship. These are the consequences of their decisions. The portal is showing all of us the hard reality, in real time, that college players are not accepting that 98% of them will NOT make it to the NFL. HARD KNOCKS.

[@kennethhudson5298]

Great Show!! A-1 Content!!

[@michaelcurd1923]

TY Neely. Everyone is freaking out, but CU hasn't lost any starters. Only 2nd and 3rd team players. Alto is the only potential starter that is leaving, but the way Micah has looked in practice, it will be fine.

[@Hi-LoFlippa704]

I completely agree with your entire comment. Well said. We gone be just fine. Not to mention, there’s more coming that we have no idea about.

[@brucecoleman6917]

Me too

[@MrSilus2000]

​@@Hi-LoFlippa704 Slusher was the starter until injury. Miliner-jones was a future starter.. But you're still right they are gonna be fine.

[@doylechism9508]

[@alpha4life]

[@MrBossuporbowout]

He named every reason why Cormani left. Salute Uncle Neely

[@dman3531]

If Cormani was doing what needed to be done, then the players coming in to try and take his position would definitely be a number 2 or 3 behind him. Is Travis Hunter doing what he has to do so no one is taking his position? Competition breeds greatness, and sometimes you are that guy until you meet someone better than you. Either step up or RUN AWAY. His decision is to run away since he couldn't win. Not just on the field because you must know the schemes and job of your position of that play. Not high school anymore.

[@MrEt4740]

His mother living with him added another dynamic to the situation. He needs to be away from her in order to grow. He has the pressure of earning enough to take care of himself and his mother and not to mention her being home sick. He is basically an husband, son, that has a family to take care of. That is too much pressure to put on a kid. I am sure there was tampering going on, using his mother as a conduit.

[@Ron-vo1fx]

1 thing you can count on without any doubt, Coach Prime 💯 knows talent

[@SuperMogul]

No need to bash the kids. Neely explained it perfectly. Just like certain jobs aren't for everyone. The same can be said about universities and athletic programs.

[@imlistening2932]

Thank you

[@williambeck3827]

I am sorry but I can’t see how anyone, especially a five star doesn’t show up in shape and show up out of shape after a winter workout program. How many players that left were also in the professors letter? Don’t need to know. The Standard is the Standard. And why would you transfer before playing in spring game and show some film work before you leaving ? Some did Colorado a favor for getting in portal early?

[@omadjourney]

Can someone be so kind as to explain a couple of things to me.... when you get on the portal do you leave campus or you just can't have access to the team, food, training facilities...how does that aspect work. Secondly do you still get to keep your scholarship until another school picks you up and what happens if you are stuck in the portal and get lost amongst the thousands of talent out there??

[@Ninjabob42069]

Excellent questions! I would love to know the answers.

[@omadjourney]

@@Ninjabob42069 hopefully someone will help us out.

[@1219john]

Most of the time players finish the school year and go to the new team the following year. To be more specific scholarship contracts are signed for a whole year 2023-2024 so you can still have financial aide and scholarship money until the contract year is up however the players won’t be doing nomore football activities mainly just going to classes and leaving for the new school in the summer and fall. Only exception is when a school offers you right after season ends you can commit and transfer right after Christmas break so you can participate in the spring with your new team. Hoped that helped a little bit…

[@ToussaintProductions]

Alton McCaskill was a hit no matter how you slice it. He was an ultra talent if he was healthy.

[@MrBossuporbowout]

He came from The University of Houston not UGA. They aren't losing Nick Chubb or Derrick Henry

[@DB-rw9ld]

Definitely. What surprised me about that move is how does Alton think any team in the to 30 of college football is going to guarantee him RB1. RB1 is earned not given. I hope he gets the opportunity he is looking for.

[@jeannettefox3496]

I think Alton made a big mistake! He has not played since 2021 not sure if his thinking was in the right space! No school is going give you a RB1 position without earning it.

[@bipolarpunt5721]

He was healthy when he red shirted because he saw Daddyball and wouldnt get the carries. He was crushing in practice, forget the injury talk.

[@93wines]

@@bipolarpunt5721 Nah bro ACL/MCL injuries are extreme, you can’t just leave that out the conversation. Those are season and career ending injuries.

I wanted coach Prime to get more RBs because I personally haven't seen anything to impress me with the running game, and that includes Alton and I love Alton but I have to question his durability.

[@wp5224]

RB Alton McCaskill is leaving apparently. That’s a disappointment for Colorado. He was recovering from a knee injury last year and made no contribution, but there were high hopes for him this year.

[@psmstyle7023]

You're right. CP made sure he was fully recovered so that he would be ready for this year. Maybe the bag just saying

Just cause they played in da nfl or did good @ da nfl level doesn't mean your a good coach or trainer

True but it’s a very good indicator that you know the game and can coach. Especially if you coach in the NFL. This ain’t pee wee football. If you coached/played at the highest level you know the game well.

Is Neely an objective journalist or team spokesman?

[@ThreadAndCircuses1]

All that NFL experience doesn't mean you can develop college athletes into NFL players. Nugget Warren was the #1 JUCO CB with Georgia and Bama offers, and wasn't developed. Cormani, #1 CB prospect, not developed. Travis, elite ball skills, but has a lot of work to do in man coverage vs college receivers.

[@hookiemontana1535]

You could say that but if a player doesn’t want to be coach or isn’t able to take criticism they are not going to develop at all. it don’t be the coach fault all the time some players just don’t wanna be great they just be there going through the motions💯

[@OG859]

JUCO usually means there's an underlying issue with the player. Physical, mental, emotional, etc. Majority of players offered by Georgia and Alabama don't end up playing in the league. Nice try though.
