Coach Sanders is going to kill.....

[Advol]

the PORTAL! He will single handedly make them change this stupid rule.
Have you seen the Texas A&M list leaving...
Lining up for Prime Time. Auburn Boosters you are idiots!

 

[Jeff Clark]

I'm more pessimistic and think Prime Time wont be able to turn the dead Colorado program around. I think Deion will probably in my opinion be let go by Colorado in December 2026 and he will rebound by getting a HBC or FCS head coaching job.

 

[utvolpj]

Colorado doesn't even have the money to pay their coach yet. Will be hard to raid the portal without any nil money either

 

[RDU VOL#14]

Is Deion really that good of a coach? I honestly don’t know . That’s a serious question. What do his teams look like? What’s their identity?

 

[UTwild82]

Only time will tell if he's a tier one coach, but he absolutely knows how to get in front of young men and let them know he can get them to the mountain top. And when you are the best to ever play your position in the NFL, they listen.

We'll see, he had things on cheat mode at Jackson State with the talent he had. He had UK talent playing in the SWAC. The Pac 12 will be a different story, I'm in the wait and see crowd

He will upgrade the talent for sure, but even UK talent will win a lot of games in the PAC 12 without USC and UCLA.

When somebody hangs 70 on them he’ll be trying to fight at midfield. He comes across as a “fair weather” type personality. I think that’s the type of players that gravitate towards him.

 

[NO SIR EEE]

You can question Prime all you want, but one thing he does so well is that he allows these players to be themselves while being held accountable. Prime also relates to each and every player and creates a fun atmosphere. Jackson State was a complete **** hole before he got there and look what he's done. I know the difference between FCS and FBS is a huge gap, but I feel like he's going to return Colorado to the 90's.

 

[Advol]

I would agree with all the nay-sayers except for the Portal.
The Portal in todays Sportz World is a God Send for a Prime.......He WILL get the players. He WILL get the money for himself and program. And yes, time will tell if he can Coach.

Well, except the young men already at Colorado. The only place Coach Sanders was gonna lead them to was the portal.

All he said was you’ll either cut it or you won’t. If you don’t think you will tell me now because I want people who know they can be great.

I was speaking in terms of coaching ability, doesn't take much in the swac when you hold all the cards

 

[OrangeInKy]

Bottom line is that he can only play 11 at a time, so he can’t get them all, and players want to play. If he builds his time around transfers, could be risky. At some point, you gotta have some guys who e been in the program, know the system in and out. and are invested long term. I’m all for taking transfers, but I think building your team around them as a foundation, can be a gamble.

Oh,the money will come

 

[Hopeful Vol]

Prime will fail hard at CU

No, he more or less blamed the players; said they didn't appreciate what they had, said they were complacent, and said his kids would never do that. He said "Our kids would go absolutely crazy to be in the situation you are in ... but you don’t respect it.” Emphasis on the word "ours." Not Colorado's.

He also talked about "we gotta stay together and be united." After he blamed the players. And then he blamed the players some more.

Sure, he's happy to lead young men - just not those young men.

. That’s not a easy to place to win at now for anybody.

Colorado is a lot different than it was 1985-1999 and i don't think the Buffaloes will ever get back to that level again.

 

[Hopeful Vol]

Deion isn’t a young cat anymore he’s 55 years old so I don’t think he will have the patience to not win big at Colorado or he doesn’t realize how big a rebuilding job it is there. In three years he will move on and go back to a Jackson St. type school probaly.

I think he will be fired in November-December 2026 and he will definitely rebound at an HBC or FCS school.

No it def isn’t. Didn’t Mike McIntyre get them to the Pac 12 championship game like 6 or 7 years ago. Who was the Boise St. coach that bombed there back in the mid to late 2000’s? I remember Gary Barnett did pretty well there and so did Rick Neuheisel and of course Bill McCartney won part of a national title in 1990 probaly the best coach they ever had.

Dan Hawkins his record at Colorado 2006-2010 was 16-33

Said the exact same thing. Unless he is fired for something, he will have them in the top 25 quickly if not sniffing the playoff when it expands. The man has confidence and players love it.
