I knew the first time Colorado played a team with defense that they will be exposed.
Colorado has hit a wall of defense
- Thread starter nssdigitalchumps
- Start date
I don’t dislike Primetime
But I’m glad hey are getting humble pied big time. The “no difference between the FCS and FBS…just scared of names” was nonsense. Colorado is a solid team that would win 5-7 games in the SEC including their 3 cupcakes

What he has done with Colorado in less than a year has made them relevant in the nation's eyes, regardless of record.
I'm with ya, though. Maybe 5-7 games in the SEC with the bottom feeders, but I think he makes more noise in what won't be the PAC-12 much longer.
Because he most likely wouldn’t do that except against Vandy
I don’t dislike deion either and I’ll give credit where it’s due. He’s a marketing genius and if I was a colorado fan I’d be loving it.
It’s been too much though, just everywhere and the obsessive overreaction and hype is exhausting.

Absolutely agree. And NeonDeon isn’t dumb…I think he knew good and well that joining the PAC 12 combined with using the social media hype to dominate the transfer portal was the most guaranteed path to success at a major P5 instead of taking a job east of the Mississippi

I'd hate to see ehat Oregon would do to our team on the road without its best player as well. Pac 12 going out with a bang n it's last season and is tough.
Coach Lanning said it best.
Prime playing for clicks......
And he will win the social media game all day long.....
And that's all that matters in today's culture. Big bucks to the winner on social media.
While true, Oregon's coach appears to be a massively unlikable jackass.
Which I think is the beef with most ppl. What other school have you seen plastered all over the place bc a coach took a bottom feeder and made them mediocre? None of course. And he's had endless help with free advertising and recruiting. He farts and its a 60 minutes special report.
I have no problem with him, but they beat an overrated tcu solely from being able to acquire players and have done nothing else
Spot on! Neon ain’t dumb. He knows how to “twerk” it. I just hate to see Hollywood enters College Football. U be U Prime! Listen to Jason Whitlock. The neon in Dion won’t last too long. Great player but not who I would choose to ever coach my kid.
Not that I dislike Sanders but I enjoy it when arrogant people get humbled, waiting to see how ESPN spins this thumping.
I have nothing against him personally but I respect a guy more that lets his actions speak for him and today he failed miserably. I hope the experiment of promoting a mediocre team is over and he fades as fast as Penny Hardaway did.
I’d love to see if he is a great coach without the media special treatment.

Prime didn't know the name of his starting center. That's pitiful, especially for someone who says he is committed to kids. Hell, the kid was snapping the ball to his own son and Prime wasn't invested enough into his team to know the center's name. Very, very weak ...
I agree. This has been fun to watch.
I'm fascinated by the last ride of the pac 12. Oregon, usc and Utah all look strong. Utah doing it without their starting qb too.
Good take! He is the “Penny” of football I think. Never thought about it but wow.. the similarities.
Yes. There are a number of YouTube videos regarding this lack of knowing his players' names, just Google to view them, but here's one ...

Deion said a week or two ago that he needs 6 or 7 more dogs. So he basically threw a third of the starters under the bus. He'll recruit at a crazy high level, so he'll get his dogs. Colorado is going nowhere but up as long as he stays.
Don’t be surprised by this. Look past the hype! Complete BS. Check out Jason Whitlock.
He followed the rules but CU has 88 new players on the roster, 68 scholarship. He should get no credit for 'building' anything, imo. A lot of credit for using the rules to his advantage. Personally, I hate that anyone has the ability to scrap his entire team and recruit another one in a single off season.
Whether he is a good coach or his staff, which has several former NFL coaches, is the real coaches remain to be seen. He's a world class promoter. We'll see if he's worth all the hype. He won't waste a second bolting from Boulder if a better job comes along.

Jason Whitlock: Why Deion Sanders is College Football's Biggest Fraud | FOX Sports Radio
Jason Whitlock of Fearless pick apart Deion Sanders and the Colorado football program’s swift rise to power in college football, as Whitlock calls out Deion for publicly attributing his coaching pilgrimage to guidance from his Christian faith.
I loved Deion when he played. I hope he does well. It'll make college football better.
I have no problem with how he has done things ... I just wish he could be just a little bit for humble. He could still be "Prime" and be humble too.
But he has done a masterful job of "us against the world" when in reality it really isn't that.

In time, I think it will be Prime against his own self. He was a great player, no doubt and can’t be argued. His personify will will never equal his ego… and that’s on him.
I’m completely sick of the media hype and his own bloviating.
It was all five yard passes….dude is a back end sec Qb playing in a no d conference
No doubt, people forget how pathetic that roster was. He has like 50 something new players too.
Oregon's coach is an ass. He's so jealous of Deion, it was oozing out of his pores. He couldn't even hide it. I checked his resume and he's been a journeyman. He's probably been at 6 different schools coaching. Let's face it, a lot of coaches hate on Prime cause he jumped to P5 so quickly. And he's sucking up all the oxygen cause his brilliance in marketing. The worst part is that they know he will be a terror in the portal next season and it's eating them up.
Lanning knows he doesn't want to face a recruit (especially an African-American) in their living room after Deion was there. He can bash flash and Hollywood all they want, but Colorado appeals to young urban kids for obvious reasons. Deion knows how to talk to their families and to the kids themselves in their language.
And besides, who is more flashy than Oregon with all their avant garde uniform changes every game? Gimme a break. He's a hypocrite.

He’s not a journeyman. He’s in the same mold of most of the big time coordinators who worked their way up, became a top coordinator at a top program and then their first HC gig was a big time program. He got the Oregon job at 36. That’s pretty damn impressive.

Lanning is jealous of Sanders and most other coaches are/will be as he gets a ton of attention and will win more recruits as time goes on (Saban called Deion out for buying Travis Hunter while buying guys for decades at LSU, and Bama)
But Lanning isn’t a hypocrite for using all of it to hype his team up…same as Colorado st coach did. And when Colorado players tell trash and flash their gold chains pregame….they are going to get the other team best effort
It’s football
