Colorado sucks…

I mean, if you were to put together every musical album ever made by a pro athlete, Shaq’s first album would probably be the best. Not that it was good. It’s just the least bad.

Since you put it that way, I am 100% with you!

LEAN?

People don’t realize Colorado been down BAD for years. They were 1-11 the year before deon showed up. He just added flash to the already non-substance.

They’ll go back to being just as bad as they are now after he leaves. There’ll just be a lot less flash

What I mean is that the 4 win 2023 season and whatever they finish at this year could look like NC runs compared to what comes after.

Colorado has nearly 60 transfers on their team. 11 high school signings last year. Just 7 commitments this year, and Deion is not visiting recruits. They could easily find themselves in a 1997 Miami type roster hole with only 45 or so players if Deion leaves. But without the nascent talent that 1997 Miami had.

Leon Deion took Mark Pope and without him, Pope would not be a….Minute Man…today.

They are coached by a man who was a HOF football player who is charismatic but who is also a very sick man. College FB is not made for these type of folks. Contrast with Cristobal and many coaches at high profile schools.
Also, as great a player he was, and as smart and knowledgeable he is of the sport, he didn't give himself the time and luxury to climb the ladder, learning from experienced coaches.

For all the fans throughout the years he always wanted former players because of how great they were this is the reason why I was always against that. You asking one of the great players of his era to beg teenagers to come to your school that wont do in home visits because of that very ego, that doesn't help convince kids to suit up for you. No one will give a **** what you did in the past, the past is the past no matter how great you were. You have to go beyond to recruit and be genuine about it, if a kid doesn't like your aura or if you make it about you they will not play for you. Its there time not yours, you had your shine and its about them.

When I saw the Mark Pope situation I knew right there he would not be able to recruit at a high clip. He cooked himself putting that video out, thats like putting out a sparring video in boxing. Its just something you do not do and that never ends well.

Not only that, it can be hard for someone like Deion, who the game came so naturally to, to associate with a player who isn’t anywhere near as physically gifted. It’s why really good players almost never make good coaches.
