Ancient history my friend.  We haven't played since Obama's first term.

And it's nothing against the Buffs, just Prime.  Who do you think would have won between ISU and Colorado last year?

We win if it is early in the season (first 4 games).  ISU wins if it is game 5-12.

I agree with that assessment completely.

I guess if we're early in the season in '25 (which would be awesome because I could make it to Boulder) I would reduce my confidence.

 Are successful leaders typically that thin-skinned and petty? 

Urban Meyer
Mack Brown
Dabo Swinney
Jimbo Fisher 
Ryan Day
Brian Kelly

and the list can go on and on

At this level, yeah, it's pretty typical. It's not at all abnormal for a high-level CFB head coach to be a thin-skinned, petty megalomaniac. Deion is a very PUBLIC version of that, and that is the only significant distinction in my eyes. And all of those guys have either built or at least continued some impressive programs for given periods of time.

Regarding roster construction, there's no track record of it because the transfer situation has changed so wildly in a short span of time and Deion himself is a unique character in terms of attention-gathering and Colorado so uniquely shitty when he arrived. This year, Colorado lost/pushed out 44 and brought in 34. Louisville 34/30. Ole Miss 22/19. Scar 25/21. Texas lost/pushed out 25 guys. It's the way of the world now all around.

If Colorado is worse in '24 than in '23 with returning stars and a new batch of transfers, then we've got a data point that he sucks at building rosters this way. But as of reality right now, '23 roster >'22 roster and '24's looks better on paper than '23's. The evidence is going to come in no matter how hard anyone beats their chest predicting what will eventually happen.

I, personally, don't see how it's a bad thing to push out guys you are not confident will make a difference... and major program coaches seem to agree.

I read the Olson article following the guys who left/were kicked out of Colorado when Sanders arrived.

Here's the finale:
“My experience with Deion wasn’t one where I’m going to go bash him,” Sowell said. “There were things I agreed with that he did and things I didn’t agree with that he did. But that’s like any head coach."

He comes off as an extreme asshole to me in that video

If he has an issue with the interviewer he could discuss it off camera instead of publicly embarrassing a guy trying to do his job.

I'm sticking by my take from 18 months ago

Extreme asshole who is publicly humiliating people instead of acting like an adult

With the current trajectory I’d pencil Shadeur in as a Cowboy.

Middle of the 1st or 3rd round depending Dax’s status.

Other Circus Destinations
Cleveland
Vegas
Arizona
Carolina

Based on Need
Rams
Giants

So thats 7 teams in the market, but I dont think serious organizations like the Rams or Giants (they try) want non-serious people at QB.

So that leaves five dysfunctional teams in various stages of QB uncertainty that likely will take a hard look and want a piece of the Sanders hype machine.

Its also possible and likely in the eval and interview process, the Sanders team will alienate these remaining franchises. Thats why I think Jerrah will get both Sanders kids.

Travis Hunter is an elite prospect. He will get drafted, then work will get done to separate him from Deion’s team or whatever it is.

So the cowboys will take him around pick 15 or 65? Email Jerry and tell him to wait until 65.

As a conman, Deion will spread rumors that Arizona or Giants are interested, and Jerrah will pick in the first round. Most likely scenario.

The Buffs went 1-8 in conference the year before Deion and then he repeated that pathetic record. Deion has excuses why he couldn't win in the Pac12 but I'm sure the previous coach had his excuses as well.

This season will be about positioning Shedeur for the Heisman/high draft pick. Winning will be secondary and I hope Buff fans are ok with that.

 

If team has 1-6 conference record Shedeur ain't sniffing the Heisman.

This entire myth of Midduer being a good QB prospect has my head spinning. It must come from people just looking at his stats and saying hey, that's not bad stats for a guy on a 4-8 team. But if you actually watched him play, you see a player that doesn't take chances with the ball because he doesn't want to throw INTs. He misses reads and only throws to dudes who are wide ass open. He holds the ball for way the fuck too long instead of throwing it away because he doesn't want to hurt his completion %. All these sacks he takes could be cut in half if he just threw the ball away when he should. But he and his dad know that people blindly blame OL for sacks instead of shitty QBs that have shitty field vision and hold the ball forever.

The delicious irony will be when Shedder pisses off his teammates, which he will, and gets cut from a NFL team, which he will.  Then one of them will hop on Twitter to write "Ion even remember him tbh. Bro had to be very mid at best."

He’s gonna run his mouth and get his ass beat at the next level.

I don't think it would be all that different than a certain ex President who happens to be running again.

Dude, if you're gonna dunk on a a former, go take a look at the one in office right now. You think the former is a narcissist, go back from the 90s to now and you'll see narcissistic, sociopathic, psychopath. 

Let's not do this on this board. Every current and ex president is a narcassistic, sociopathic, psychopath. You don't get to the head of CIA without being a sociopath narcassistic prick. Just ask John Kiriakou. 

No more fucking cloak room shit on this board, please!

You gotta cite all the current/ex's instead of focusing on one that's running for re-election. People get caught up on the now and not the whole picture. 

Regardless, I hope this is the last cloak room shit on this thread.

Deion is a raging narcissist.  Trump is a raging narcissist.  
 

Neither of those statements is political in any fashion.

You dildos could fly right by that comment and not make it an issue. But nope, like moths to a flame. Like Deion and his kid when someone says anything negative about them. 

Always the voice of reason and sanity. That's why we love you.

Ain’t no way Colorado is winning the B12. Middle of the pack at best. The only Top 10 draft pick is their WR/DB combo guy. If they totally don’t overuse T Hunter, as he’s the “talent” on the roster.

Hook’em!!!

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 easily distracted that he has to remind kids far less than half his age, even one who just plays for Austin Peay, that he's better than them and makes Tom Herman appear grounded and emotionally mature. Also, he's a total dick. 

There. We're back on track.

You know who else has those traits???

Spoiler

Nah, not gonna do it
