With a weak Big 12 it’s always possible that we end up against them in the playoffs. But moreso, just what Deion has (or has not) built in Year 2 after engaging in a unique experiment in talent acquisition.

Miami is still well ahead of Colorado on paper. Furthermore, it would seem Deion is now trapped in a model where he has to recruit portal players almost exclusively. It’s far more expensive and it makes signing high school players so difficult.

Just consider it reference for later when 40% of CFB ads in Sep are Deion related, and people on CIS argue over him.

Best case - Deion built an expensive version of Snyder’s old K State model where you staff your team with JUCOs and win a majority of games simply because your players all have at least two years of strength and conditioning

Worst Case - Deion leaves after this season for greener pastures and the entire program collapses.
