Anyone saying this game was anything other than a massive accomplishment for Sanders and the CU program is a moron.

Deion Sanders is a thin-skinned, grifting, insecure, 57-year-old man adorned in jewelry and excess to fill the massive emotional void that not even a hall of fame NFL career could fill and is so easil

"robbery" seems like a good way to re-direct the attention off of losing and coaching and somewhere else.

Deion really looks like a clown with this locker room robbery story.  Everyone who played junior high sports knows to lock stuff up in the locker room, especially on the road.  Also why would you be flashing around the jewelry like they have been all year without having it insured?  And now he’s asking for the NCAA or the Rose Bowl Organization to reimburse his kids?  That’s the biggest joke of all, literally every other coach is laughing their ass off about that.

He did the same shit at jackson state. It's bullshit victim mentality garbage. He has a script and now that they are getting their shit pushed in he's creating a new narrative.

It’s almost always a player, manager, or even coach of the team whose stuff got taken. They have the knowledge of who has what and the access to the locker room. “Oh, just gotta run back in real quick…gotta take a dook…”

Only takes a moment of opportunity. It happens on a lot of teams. People get kicked off of teams every year for it. Regardless, I’m sure there are cameras outside the locker room that will show who was in and out of it.

Interesting. And crappy. I wasn’t posting my speculation as an indictment of CU in particular, just sports teams in general. I’ve been affiliated with a lot of teams over the years and theft has always come from within. Though it’s never happened with recruits around the teams I’ve been involved with. 

I'm glad for CU that it was external. That kind of distrust and dishonesty can tear teams apart.

Hats off to Deion in winning a few games early on but it’s still crazy that some, not posting here, were saying things like making the playoffs was going to happen after Week 2. They have a decent shot at winning vs Wash St, before ending the season with a loss at Utah.

I see Colorado's season ceiling as 4 wins over Colorado St, Washington St, Stanford, and splitting with the Arizona schools. Nebraska is a maybe game but I think they lose that. TCU, Oregon, USC, Oregon St, and Utah should roll them. 

Other than overrating TCU was pretty damn close depending on this toss up game with WSU coming Saturday. This was always going to be the outcome to the season given the complete portal restart but with a built in quality college QB. 

All the people back in September claiming Hunter and Sanders should be Heisman candidates and mentioning playoffs were easily tricked fools. 

This season doesn't really say anything one way or the other about Deion as a coach. If he's able to build from here, especially once he has to recruit QBs from outside his family, will tell what kind of coach he can be.

SIAP but could Deion's sons transfer to another school this offseason if Deion took another job? I unaware if there are transfer rules about constantly switching schools every year or not.

Deion wants Shedeur to win the Heisman and/or be a 1st round pick more than everything else. Hence why they continue to prioritize the passing game even though they do not have the line to protect Shedeur.  Deion accepts 7 sacks and a loss as long as Shedeur has 5 TDs. I know Deion wants to win but IMO that is secondary.

Why would Deion leave?  Not that he isn’t doing a good job, but he certainly hasn’t shown he’s ready for anything bigger yet.

Turns out it was HS recruits on an official UCLA visit.  Not a good look.

Business school will work out for them if athletics doesn’t.

If one wants to see a complete media created fabrication, check out the hot takes on Dion to aggy. There’s no way he would get along with all of those bigoted   billionaires whose self worth is tethered to the [mis]fortunes of aggy football.

They call him The Wanderer for a reason...

It’s not just a media creation but Deion and his team. Throw out a few rumors and have Deion refuse to comment, and watch CU give him a new contract. A&M most likely has 2-3 names with a single target but the agents for many coaches will say their coach is a candidate. Time for a raise.

I'd think UCLA and USC will be the ones to get him a raise if they come open. Deion to Aggy would be hilarious because it's all the white people of Boulder but add in the stereotypical in your face racism of the south.

He does not live in the city of Boulder but, he is in Boulder County.  Think his house is zoned in Longmont city limits.

I’ve never seen so much hype over a coach and program that is 1-6 in conference play…

IMO the hype has dropped dramatically since their season took a downturn.

I know some are celebrating that he took a 1-win team and has 4 wins so far. Good but CU had averaged 4-5 wins per season for the previous 5 seasons prior to last year. I'm sure they're improved but in reality they've just reverted to the mean.  Even we played them in the Alamo Bowl a couple of years ago. It's not like Deion turned a consistent bottom dweller to the national title game.

While it's impossible to know, it's a decent probability that they would be at 3-4 wins if the previous coach had been given another year especially in that they had an easier schedule this year.

Come on now, he got rid of a whole bunch of dead wood and scrubs who went 1-8 in conference last year and replaced then with 50-some new guys who will go... 1-8 in conference. 

TCU, Nebraska, and in-state rivals Colorado State (CU's opening football slate) have a combined 13-17 record at this point. BUT SUCH HUGE WINS!!

Not easy to start 3-0 and not make a bowl game. Presumably ending the season with 6 losses does not help recruiting. I know some will defend him that 4 wins is a big improvement over 1 win. No, it’s not.

In Sept, Deion could have convinced practically anyone to sign or transfer to CU. Not the case now, and he will have to put in the hard work to turn CU around.
