I'm sure that someone with as much money as Deion could find a way to funnels 5-10 million discretely to a "sports collective" that then offers recruits a great compensation package to commit to wherever Deion is coaching.

Totally worth the investment on his part since he recoups the money through his coaching salary that he doesn't need anyway. Also, connections to NFL personnel and former/current players helps. Don't think there is any rule against them attending games and bumping into players and recruits.

It's interesting to watch because I can't remember there ever being a coach who was as elite of a player or as recognizable. I'm not a fan but can see why kids would go for it. I don't ever want him in the SEC at a decent program because that school would quickly become comparable to UGA in talent and good/great coordinators and assistants are always available at the right price.

Hope he stays out west.....maybe ending up at UCLA when they eventually fire Chip Kelly.

You've to to be kidding me. Deion loves him some Deion. He's not paying money to get players. He didn't even know the name of his starting center - the kid that hikes the ball to Deion's son.

I have no clue....just saying that I wouldn't put it past him, especially when he was at Jackson State. And it would have been in the name of self interest if done.

Yeah, I agree with all you said and worry that he may replace Sunbelt Billy!

Consistently? I agree with you and probably not at CU. At Jackson State for the #1 player in the early stages of his coaching career? Maybe, maybe not but 0% chance....I don't agree.

He is a competitive guy who wants to win and prove something. If getting that off the ground and successful required a personal investment that is miniscule to someone of his net worth then it would not surprise me at all. Normally, a former player of his stature and wealth would be donating to his alma mater so why would he not "donate" a similar amount to something he is even more personally invested in?

No. Just no. Appreciate your imagination but no.

It may just be me, but I believe Deion has a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious NLI donor behind him (probably the one that got the #1 recruit to Jackson St.) and those $$$ create the gullibility of choosing Colorado over an SEC school.

Absolutely, great point.
