I was unaware of the Nebraska incident. I have not read anything about it. But my gold-colored glasses are no different than you "dislike" Prime glasses. 🤣
OT: Prime Time will crash and burn
- Thread starter ScarletDog
- Start date
Wait, wait wait...lol so this guy hitting hunter after the play was dead while he was defenseless is Deon's fault as well? Imo while you guys may not like the way coach prime carries his self, what you really don't like is him being so popular. The fact that so many people are gravitating to him and approving of his actions is what's really hurting you guys. My schedule doesn't allow me much TV time during the week right now. I don't hear anything about Deon Sanders or Colorado during my day. You guys have to be actively seeking content, clicking on articles or creating your own Deon content like this post which in turn adds to viral nature of the current "prime time" phenomenon. Lol he will continue to get so much attention because just as much as people tune in because they love the show, you will also tune in to watch him 'crash and burn'...
So many will tune in to watch him take these two Ls in the next two weeks and this thread will read 30 pages lol
Lol bro you've played football before....the logo at the middle of the field has meaning...if you go and stomp on it pregame it's a sign of disrespect. Is it to the point that we are acting like we don't understand football culture in order to find a way to disparage shedeur sanders? Smh
Wait, wait, wait, reading comprehension is important. Stop slurping the Prime-flavored Kool-Aid. I said BOTH coaches let this escalate. BOTH. I made no statement, nor did I imply whether I like/dislike Deion Sanders. I have consistently said I was neutral on him, but I also said I prefer a more traditional approach like Coach Norvell of Colorado State.
"Reading comprehension" lol you said both coaches, so you are blaming coach prime as well. You may be neutral but I don't agree with the late hit on hunter being his fault at all. So I responded to you. How is it that no Colorado players hit anyone after the whistle yet the coach that you prefer had a player send a guy, that just happened to be the other teams best player, to the hospital? Yet he complains about the penalties after the game. His team lost because they were undisciplined yet this is the coach you prefer? Maybe Norvell let it escalate but the player is responsible for controlling his own emotions..
So we disagree. I said both coaches let the situation escalate, but that did not warrant the hit by the CSU player - said in my post: "The hit was bad, and it was wrong." And don't confuse what I said about Coach Norvell's style of coaching before the game versus what happened during the game. Did I not make myself clear that BOTH coaches escalated a silly snit into a war on the field? BOTH. Shame on both of them. Colorado was not innocent in the antics on the field-- they had a personal foul, a facemask, and a horse collar tackle penalty. I'm done here. The Deion Kool Aid slurpers think he walks on water and can do no wrong. As I said, I'm neutral on him.
More kudos to Coach Prime. Powerful motivation, and it worked.
Warren Sapp on staff? By the description, sounds more like an analyst role but technically analysts aren’t suppose to coach players hands on. Although I do think there was a push to change that.
While coach Prime deserves a lot of criticisms he also deserves praise in this instance https://www.breitbart.com/sports/20...-death-threats-against-colorado-state-player/
When coach prime is the voice of reason can the end of times be near?

No one has to reach far and wide. Greg does that all on his own
Absolutely ridiculous! RU has had far more success in this century. Do you really think kids 17-21 are thinking about Kordell Stewart or the Buffalos in 1990?
Colorado has been worse and inferior to RU for a long time.
Stop making excuses for our program and coach. He’s not getting it done and our performance on the field last year would have gotten a head coach fired at 99 % of schools. Greg’s team last year actually was as low and even lower then Ash’s last season.
We will continue to be bad because we accept it.
agree on the firing part given he blew a few games and management was abysmal.
Was simply commenting on full body of work. How Colorado made a change and has taken over college football. RU continues to make excuses for terrible coaching and pass on potential replacements.
This year yes so far 3-0 against teams we are suppose to beat is a good start.
Playing against inferior talent I am concerned our DL can not get any pressure, OL has real problems pass blocking, Gavin having problems reading Dfenses or coming off first read, plays between 10-20 yds down field.
Positives
Running game looks great, Gavin throwing ball away instead of forcing , Gavin ability to run, Fg kicking, LBs .
Opponent this week should be good test. I don’t need a win just be competitive and lose by less than 30.
I totally agree. I’m not a schiano fan at all myself. But have to admit we’ve looked very good the first few games. It’s games like that in the past that have given Greg trouble.
We can’t get embarrassed by Michigan or else I’ll be disgusted again
Absolutely fair and agreed! My frustration comes with the larger fan base waxing poetic about Schiano and how good he is or how great he is doing this year.
He beat a big ten team who had its coach fired and lost players in a scandal, along with two inferior teams. People are high on him because for years he actually lost those types of games .
So is he really better OR finally just actually winning games that he should? He definitely deserves credit for a good start. IMO he needs to be better.
Breitbart reporting on coach prime....lol everyone wants some of the views and clicks he generates...it's going to be funny to see people change their tune and begin to not only tolerate the way coach prime speaks and carries himself. But you will start to see more schools seek out coaches with his type of personality. Also, many organizations/companies will want this type of energy from the face or spokesmen for their organizations. But the thing is, people don't understand that it's not just the outgoing personality, the hall of fame career or the slick talk that leads to his success. He's incredibly disciplined and has been a successful coach on all levels of football from pop warner, to highschool and now college.
Those not used to people behaving like prime don't understand that though from a far it may seem like Deon Sanders and let's say Antonio Brown are exactly alike. This is an extreme but if someone were to hire Antonio Brown as a coach and expect the same results because of a similar personality they'd be mistaken. I truly believe this is why many don't like him without even knowing him. They see prime and Antonio Brown, lil Wayne in the same light...but we have to learn to judge people individually not because of their style of dress or speech.
RU defensive line is legit...don't want to be too confident but this dline and linebackers are legit...Powell is a monster...a fast monster at that...if they are in the right mental state they can compete with Michigan...ru is 2 deep at each position on dline..
"Parsons was disgusted by the hit leveled on Travis Hunter by Colorado State’s defensive back Henry Blackburn.
“That was so malicious and dirty,” said Parsons, “ I thought that guy [Henry Blackburn] should have got ejected. That was something that you hate to see in football.”
Parsons went further saying Blackburn should suffer harsh consequences.
“This guy [Blackburn] doesn’t deserve to be [in] no football league,” said Parsons, “ At the end of the day in college and even in the NFL we need to protect our brothers.”
Micah Parsons is correct
Micah Parsons on hit on Travis Hunter: ‘That was so malicious and dirty.’
Parsons was on his show “The Edge with Micah Parsons” and discussed his admiration for Colorado and Deion Sanders and his disgust at the late-hit Travis Hunter suffered.
Shilo Sanders is correct:
"I really wanted to whoop that dude that did that to him for real like after the game or something," Shilo said at a news conference Tuesday in Boulder. "If I see him just around here somewhere, he got to watch out. But that really made me mad, you know, just seeing him trying to play dirty like that. And that was crazy."
My "idiotic stance" is shared by most of the country and especially people who played at a high level.
Deion said he "forgave" the player but of course you dont need to forgive people who didn't do anything.
""I forgive him. Our team forgives him. Travis ... he's forgiven him"
That's just Deion trying to stop the escalation - having now become an all-time CFB phenom the whole countru is watching, All the Deion haters (like you) are trying to blame Sanders for State's dirty play. Even Whitlock is blaming Colorado for being an "elitist" collge that provoked State by looking down on them. Some DDS (Deion Deragnement Syndrome) going on now. Hope he doesn't get swatted.
Richard Sherman (3X All Pro BD player Stanford) so the play was so dirty he wondered is it was planned
Warrren Sapp wants to coach in Colorado next year.
Adding a charismatic, FL HOF player at DL (SEC specialty) will suck so many recuits to CO that not even GA will be safe. Of course Prime needs to stay healthy and that's not a given

something needs to change
Looks like college ball is going pro and Colorado has vastly expanded the landscape.
When Sanders signed his contract Colorado didn't have the money for it - then they got 28 million in donations by July. Of course the spring game sold-out and so did the season tickets. Now all Colorado games are sold-out for the season. Boulder officials said the city made 17 million the week of the Nebby game. The State game set records for TV.
Buffs will lose a few with Hunter out for three games but fair to say this will be the last ""weak" season Colorado will have. Reports are that recruits are caling Colorado team in droves. Lots of money, celebs, advertisers and such are piling into Colorado. People might laugh but I can see a new pro league growing from all this. CFB is turning pro now and the money hunt is on and wont stop
Prime is the flavor of month now and if he keeps it up, Deion just might turn the Buffs into a top program that gets the better recruits to want to be Prime players
Let Colorado slow down some, banwagon might losea few but I think Sanders will still find ways to be the center of attention making Colorado a destination for top HS talent and those on the portal .

Report: Just since getting hired, Coach Prime has made CU $90M
It looks like the University of Colorado is going to have no problem paying Deion Sanders that big contract. This is staggering
Report: Just since getting hired, Coach Prime has made CU $90M
A story from The Daily Camera ran the numbers and talked to relevant parties to come up with the figure, a massive number from Coach Prime
denversports.com
Deion is an absolutely awesome coach of young men. Prime is the one who sells the tickets.
His interview about creating Prime, and admitting it is an act, is absolutely awesome. He practiced lines, created an identity, and was loved for it.
Deion is the true person he is, and his athletes know how much he supports them.

The only problem I have with Prime is that I would never be able to believe a word he says about long term.
I can see him one more year at Col at most, then he is gone.

Dude dirty plays happen all the time in football. It was a late hit. So what? That's what personal fouls are for. It wasn't even a targetting penalty."Parsons was disgusted by the hit leveled on Travis Hunter by Colorado State’s defensive back Henry Blackburn.

You want to kick out every single player who has had a late hit or unnecessary roughness? How soft are you? There would be no players left. You don't think Deion was never called for a personal foul his entire career or had any late hits?
It's obvious this was an emotional response from everyone involved. The fact that the player was white only makes it worse. Deion and his team don't need anyone making death threats at players. It's football they can handle themselves, they're big boys.
I wouldn't believe any coach about the long term, at least not initially.
Truly good coaches will get other offers. And if the offer fits what the coach wants professionally and personally, then it makes sense for them to take it. I'd never blame any coach for doing what's best for them and their family. They don't marry schools, they get paid to work for them. And they can be fired the moment they fail to perform.
Pretty sure, based on the evidence, that coaches typically have vastly different mindsets about this stuff than fans. Fans often form almost unbreakable bonds with their chosen teams/schools. Coaches often do not.
I get it...and I also get that it seems like he is a hell of a HC but...I just feel his game is really more about himself and all the posturing is not for his team but for him.
Deion is just like most in the coaching profession, go where the money and respect is.
Look at most of the top HCs , start at a lesser known program and move into better positions.
Nick Saban is a perfect example
Toledo ( 1 year)
Cleveland Browns (3 years DC)
MSU (5 years)
LSU (5 YEARS)
Miami Dolphins (2 YEARS)
Then on to Bama in 2007 where he's still at today
Coaches remain loyal until something they want more pops up.
I'm sure Deion would pack his sunglasses and be a Cowboy or Seminole
if either of those jobs were offered to him .
Sanders probably won't stay long with the Buffs, but I'm thinking 2 years
because he's getting the attention he likes now and jumping ship so quickly might make people start looking deeper into his self promoting ways.
Right now that's being looked at as a Colorado plus, jumping might have it looked at as Deion is only out for himself and doesn't really care about the players under him or the program he's at
