Did he just admit to shadow recruiting?
I don't know what shadow recruiting is but I think it's a given that some of his players are coming with him, especially given one of them is his son who is already in the portal.

Anyway, this video is total horseshit, I'm very certain this resonates with the barstool crowd. What he very quickly will discover is that he can't bully the Pac 12, like he did the SWAC without building depth. He can bring his own "luggage" all he wants but that roster is shallow and he's going to need some of those guys he's shitting on to build that program.
I agree.

Colorado has really updated their facilities. So he’s good there.
The Cal-UCLA-USC institutional mindset of pretending to keep athletics at arms length from the academic mission permeates through CU as well.

Its always been about Dion. No one else. Those kids are smart enough to do a little research and once they figure out (a) that he didn't like to hit, (b) didn't like to practice and (c) always, always, always made it about him, regardless of the team, they won't run through walls for him, unless there's one between them and the nearest portal.
Post by: Stupid Fitz on December 05, 2022, 11:34:53 AM
I’m sure he’ll get a couple big name recruits, but this definitely feels like a situation where you take a bad team, get them ok enough that everyone sings your praise, then bolt to a better gig
He told his last team this directly and will tell this one the same. At least he is being honest about it I guess. I give this 3 years max. I'm shocked that people like Feldman are talking about how this is going to be amazing. Its going to be a disaster.

My Colorado friends were very confused when I told them he needs those players (most for multiple years) because he simply can't bring in 85 new scholarship players in year one.
They honestly thought he could turnover the entire roster before next season.

I think he accomplished a great deal in regards to bringing attention (and high level recruits) to HBCU's. For him to bail for more exposure and more money seems a bit hypocritical but let's be honest - none of that crap matters in major sports. If he wins there all will be good.
He is no more or less hypocritical than any coach that leaves a program. IMO the guys like Chadwell whose primary story is "God told them to take the job' are way worse but that's picking nits as really they are all money and ego-driven hypocrites.

He didn't bring any additional attention to HBCUs, at least nothing at all tangible. He did a little tiny bit for bringing a bit more exposure to the SWAC, but if you ask people today talking about Deion what conference Jackson State is in, most couldn't tell you if you spotted them the S and the W. He did bring exposure to Jackson State but it's going to leave with him and not have any kind of a legacy.
To be clear, I'm fine with him not doing anything for any other entity other than Jackson State football and Prime Inc. but I don't, at all, love many white people giving him credit for doing anything other than helping himself. Like rusty said, he's no different than most FBS college football coaches, he's no HCBU savior.

If he can recruit and manage a roster he'll do fine. I don't see why he can't do that.

I think the toughest thing is going to be getting a decent OL/DL. I think he will be able to nab quality skill players almost immediately.

I think the national media are in love with this because they know there will be plenty of good quotes and some drama for them to cover.
It will be interesting to see if he can manage a roster in today's portal environment. I have a feeling that his way (no hats in meeting as wearing a hat) will not sit well with a large group of players.

I totally believe everything that this random twitter fellow says
I've seen multiple reports saying the same thing, the only difference is the not hearing from Deion's staff. The other reports I saw were that someone from the staff called, said they wouldn't be honoring the scholarship agreement, then just hung up.
I fail to understand how people are making this Deion's fault though. The AD promised these dudes scholarships before Deion even thought about Colorado. Deion takes the job, then the AD allows Deion to have control over his roster, like every other college sports coach has.
The AD is the clear villain here. He promised these dudes scholarships so they had enough players to finish the year and get the football money, the season ended and he said sike.

I think I saw the same article referencing one kid's twitter who got his offer pulled. This seems like a pretty normal thing (right or wrong) when there is a coach change. I think, at worst, it sounds like it could have been handled a little more professionally from the recruiting coordinator but probably not that big a deal.

I don't see how humiliating him in front of 100 of his peers will make him trust the "family" or future family or anyone for that matter. Great for TV, though. It got us talking about it.
Plus the split vote of the team. Besides what you said, you only vote - put the team on the spot like that - if you know the outcome is going to be completely one sided, nearly unanimous. There's about twenty or thirty guys who left that room wondering if they just got their first "strike"

I don't want to burst your bubble because I agree with you. The company I work for had HR management meetings that I was required to attend. At one of them, they discussed several types of management styles that were used by businesses, and one of them was to evaluate your work by members of your team. Your pay was tied to it and in some cases your employment. Thank god we didn't have it take effect for more than a few months, as it was crap-canned.

Any “family” God fearing preaching adult with a sense of respect and decency doesn’t go down that road.

No disrespect to anyone but, it’s 3 sides to every story. Mines, theirs and the truth. So I’m going to tell mine. I’m going to start by saying I never disrespected ANYBODY such as my coaches, teammates, and anyone else within the building. I have NEVER been a bad kid to be labeled as a “cancer”. Moreover, July 5th was my very first day going to Jackson. I went up there to practice with the team and I was not enrolled nor did I have a physical to even practice but, they still threw me out there and I ended up getting hurt, which was not my fault. I came back to Jackson in august around camp due to me still finishing my class at UM. I missed my first week of camp due to my injury. First game they didn’t take me to travel for no reason whatsoever. When I entered the transfer portal first game I was let back on the team the following week and this was the only chance I was given. I never needed “2” or “3” chances because I never did anything wrong to ask for another chance. After letting me back onto the team coach Prime himself vouched for me to play Grambling state game. Moving forward I never was able to get any reps in practice for NO reason at all! They never gave me a full drive in a game. They would give me at the most 3 plays. Moral of the story I was never give a CHANCE!! because of this I stated “F*** this s*** I’m ready to go home”, which resulted in me being kicked off the team. I never spoke down about the JSU “Family” nor did I speak harmful to anyone on this team. I’ll end it with this!! Overall I’m still grateful for the opportunity that was given to me thanks coach Prime. 🙏🏾

He didn't explicitly mention race, but how often have you heard someone discussing a white player mention the number of parents at home? It's like calling the player "well spoken".

He didn't explicitly mention race, but how often have you heard someone discussing a white player mention the number of parents at home? It's like calling the player "well spoken".
Also even if the D-lineman with a single mom is white, there's something gross about explicitly wanting someone desperate for a certain position. And the laughing feels cringey

Zero chance he watches a beautiful spiral and says “HOW MANY PARENTS?!?” Zero chance he watches two blocks get eaten up and pushed 5 yards deep and says “IS HE POOR?”

Nor is he really thinking of those factors within the top handful of features when watching recruiting film or attending HS games and camps.

K-State already got a commit from a pretty highly rated QB out of Colorado. As an aside, this getting commits out of highly rated to very highly rated QB's every recruiting class is just some kind of voodoo magic.

This thread was always going to teeter on the verge of a PIT thread, unfortunately, so I will do my best to try and keep it out of the pit.

I get it. He’s obviously exaggerating though. No one on earth who understands football thinks that Prime is going to turn down a single mother 5 star QB or a honor student DT.This thread was always going to teeter on the verge of a PIT thread, unfortunately, so I will do my best to try and keep it out of the pit.

Don't know if you did it on purpose or not, but you just made the perfect argument as to why it was really stupid for him to say that. He's feeding silly stereotypes, without even getting into the obvious dog whistles. I would sincerely hope that he doesn't actually think that poor kids can't be smart enough to be quarterback and smart kids can't be tough enough to be a d-lineman.
I'm not sure why you're willing to give him credit for not acting on the way he thinks. He's literally don't nothing to prove that he doesn't act on those thoughts. It's not like it would be wild for a football coach to think like that. We read and see stories every single year, around draft time, about NFL scouts and front office personnel who have that mentality. We've seen and heard a lot of problematic things and thought processes from Deion, you can give him the unearned benefit of the doubt if you want to, I won't.

I don't even think you need smart QBs, in the book smart sense anyway. "They" say the smartest guys on the field are the offense linemen.Totally agree. Many, many different types of intelligence. Most people incorrectly assume that verbal communication skills indicate intelligence in all areas of life. Lots of people can put together very sophisticated plans and execute complex tasks fast without being able to easily string two sentences together in a conversation.

qbs don't even have to make any plans, just listen to coaches. not really any problem solving is needed, i'd guess they just need to be good at memorizing, learning how to read and react, and not freak out under pressure. definitely not easy, but seems way more about effort and experience than intelligence.

I mean those terms in a way that is not quite so literal. I am saying that they need the cognitive power to understand a great many things very quickly. Lots of if-then statements.
I do believe that requires rapid planning (down and distance alternatives, audibles, etc.) and improvisation skills. Those are all types of thinking and types of intelligence.
Though, obviously you can compensate if you have very high abilities in other areas (e.g. arm strength, speed, agility, etc.).

He lost a starting OL due to NCAA denying transfer request. That one is going to hurt him bad this year.
I sure hope he wins his appeal, his story is crushing. I seen to remember having an off-season discussion with someone on this board about Colorado's terrible line depth and that person, whomever he was, just completely brushed me off. That poster would probably take exception to your thought that losing one lineman, a fcs transfer at that, is crushing.

Norvell was fine when Nevada came to Manhattan. He did get a 15 yarder for yelling at the refs, but he didn't say anything about Manhattan.
I think bulletin board material is overrated as hell. That being said, I have no idea what Norvell was trying to accomplish with those comments. I also think it's corny for one FBS black head coach to talk crap about another one for no reason at all. There are so few of them, it really should be a small fraternity of guys looking out for each other.

Players will run through a brick wall for this type of coach. KSU is lucky imo to have two staffs full of them. Basketball for sure. I’m also sure Prime has some “bad guy” coaches on his staff.
I read somewhere about Prime being very egotistical and chasing ego. I don’t really see him that way. I think he is supremely confident — not fake and cocky — and that he has an abundance to offer. And he should be like that, he’s been one of the best in the world at anything he’s done.

Which bull junk made it personal this week?
Funny enough Dan Lanning was talking crap over the summer when Colorado was accepted to the Big 12, he essentially called them irrelevant but that hasn't been much of a talking point this week.
I think Colorado being 3 TD underdogs is crazy disrespectful.

I agree. I think they'll be able to score enough to keep it closer (or win). But either way, it will be a good litmus test for the Fighting Primes.

If CSU is as crappy as most people thought, then 21 points isn’t crazy. Of course, if I had to bet I’d take the Buffs to cover.
It's pretty clear that Colorado State is much better than they've been, there's apparent talent there.

They would go something like this:
Billy Packer: And now look on the replay. Watch the way the Duke players hydrate during a timeout. Look at how they drink that water. Just the right amount. That attention to detail is exactly why Duke University maintains an edge over their opponents.

they showed a clip of his pregame speech and he led with "we're rooted in substance, not flash", which was certainly something coming from Oregon's coach

Dan Lanning is such a dumb rough ridin' meathead. It's very weird that he's so obsessed with Deion Sanders. Having a pregame speech focused on the opposing coach, when he's not said a damn thing negative about your team is the same energy that the hayseeds had in our stadium who cheered tonight when they announced the Colorado Oregon score. I mean I get off from Joe Seed Salesman from Sabetha, funny when it's a coach though.

I get your point, but it’s tough to argue with the results. It just seems like a different version of bulletin board material for the kids.
Bulletin board material? It's contrived stupidity and actual good teams don't need to do this dumb crap. Colorado was overmatched, always were, always going to be. This is the same shithead that carried them irrelevant two months ago. There's not a person in the world who thought Colorado was going to win this game. All of Lanning's talk was simply about paint being envious, nothing else. If it wasn't obvious before, how about now?
https://twitter.com/slmandel/status/1705691680421421126
He's about to play a whole lot of teams that have gotten more attention than Oregon this season, including the Heisman Trophy winner. I'm guessing he won't be as willing to run his mouth.

Coaches will use anything and everything to get their kids to play with an edge. Lanning seems to be a big disrespect/us against the world type motivator. Oregon being Oregon makes the comments about flash seem hollow to fans, but ge obviously wants his program and players to be nasty, tough and vengeful.
He’ll probably play the disrespect card all season.
Also thought Prime handled the loss with grace, responsibility and humility. He’s great.

It has nothing to do with prime or this weird fixation on what coaches say in their pregame speech and everything to do with knocking that obvious recruiting machine down a peg or two.

If you think that all coaches motivate their players by talking about other coaches you're the naive one, boss. You think Nick Saban wasted 2 seconds talking about Lane Kiffin before kickoff and at halftime? Man, I can hear Chris Klieman tearing the paint off the walls of the locker room spitting bars about Gus Malzhan. He's jealous, it's nothing more than that.
He's also a hypocrite. If any coach in the country shouldn't be talking about substance over style it's the University of Nike, particularly when he invited ABC's cameras into the locker room to do so. He needs to focus on breaking Utah's streak of conference championships instead of getting chesty against the 8th best team the conference.

They'll struggle to make a bowl, for sure. I hate Colorado, have for decades and that isn't stopping more. I'm not the biggest Prime fan either but people are being way over the top in trying to knock them down a peg. People are now actively calling this dude and his program a fraud, it's pretty ridiculous and there's no precedent for a coach and a program receiving so much vitriol after three games.

I use it for some of the teams I coach. Disrespect is a massive motivator. I prefer the Tang style, but you gotta do what you gotta do.
“You wanna know what they think about you? Nothing. They don’t. They been beating teams with <insert team name here> on the front the uniform for years. They don’t think they have to bring it today. They don’t respect you.
Now let’s go win a damn fight!”

I’m a layperson. I have zero idea how common this type of pre-game trash talking is. Is this a perfectly normal amount?
Yeah me either, and it's kinda cathartic to see that happen, but it also makes me hate both sides of this (Oregon and Colorado). Trash talk is perfectly fine, but to then record it, and make it part of a response just seems like talking things that happen on the field and making it so everyone gets to yuck it up. Keep it to the players/on the field.
It's also totally something unique to the last 10 years of social media, and zero crap you'd ever hear about throughout the entire existence of organized sports I'm sure. I'm sure this happens to a degree on every game, it's just how much you wanna air out dirty laundry to the press. Just seems excessive, but I'm sure to reach recruits you gotta do it.

If you pound the opponent as thoroughly as Oregon pounded Colorado, I'm perfectly fine yucking it up after. I don't have a problem with Prime/Colorado, but they've had a Gameday and soon-to-be three Big Noon Kickoffs (whatever that's worth) for winning 3 games, the other team should absolutely enjoy rubbing their noses in it. I'm also generally pro-pettiness in college sports as that's what makes for good rivalries/matchups.Well said

Well we have that in common because there's a 0% chance you know what I know. There's also a 100% chance that I've heard and seen Deion and Saban speak about this multiple times. The quotes were there for you to find too, probably should have taken 5 seconds to look before you hopped on my nuts and make me the subject of this conversation.

“Even when I played, everybody thought I talked,” said Sanders, a Pro Football Hall of Famer. “I never talked (negatively about opponents). I just really had a good time with the media, and I talked about me. I never spoke of my opponent. You can’t find one clip of me ever speaking negatively or about my opponent, period. I don’t believe in that. I don't condone that.”

Herbstreit noted a unique policy Saban has that again puts him in a class by himself from other programs.
“If you really look at Nick Saban objectively, how can you not appreciate not just the greatness, recruiting and development, but how many times did you watch Alabama trash talk Ohio State during that game? They don’t do it,” Herbstreit said on the latest episode, per 247sports. “I even asked him on that call (after the game) … ‘I don’t tolerate it. I tell them when they show up, and in practice, that we don’t talk to the opponent. That’s our one rule when it comes to that. You aren’t allowed to talk to your opponent.’ And if you watch Alabama, they don’t just beat you. They do it in a way that is respectful.”
Yeah, I guess I don't know for a fact that Klieman didn't talk crap about Malzahn, but I'm real comfortable that he didn't.

For Saban perfect case in point is after the Texas game last year him getting on his players for the horns down. I just don't think he has the time or care to trash talk, I think he views winning as enough

cRusty - When people couldn't stand Miami (coached by white dudes) was that racist?I didn't say hating Prime/CU was racist, just that they're the least favorite team of racists. I'm guessing Miami in the 80's was also the least favorite team of racists back in the day, but I don't know. You apparently think so?

They may have been, but most people didn't like them because it went from being a little brash and confident to just acting like assholes.

Not entirely applicable, but it’s a common move among journalists to phrase assertions in the form of a question, especially in headlines and sub-headers.

Not at all applicable here because we have no idea if those people are forcefully arguing the affirmative, mocking the talking point, or are having a balanced discussion about it. It's a title of a spaces conversation without zero context.

7UAs big a Prime guy as I am (prob top 10% pro Primr bbs posters in the USA), and as much fun as it is to laugh at hayseed fans celebrating CU’s whippin, this is really nothing from Lanning.
Coaches will use anything and everything to get their kids to play with an edge. Lanning seems to be a big disrespect/us against the world type motivator. Oregon being Oregon makes the comments about flash seem hollow to fans, but ge obviously wants his program and players to be nasty, tough and vengeful.
He’ll probably play the disrespect card all season.
Also thought Prime handled the loss with grace, responsibility and humility. He’s great.
I know for a fact that Steve Dave uses this tact with his 13U girls basketball team (or whatever)

From what I've seen in a few CU games, Edwards isn't capable of much between the tackles. His elite skill is speed so he has to get to the edges or get a catch out of the backfield in space.
Whoa. Nobody is capable of much between CU's tackles. Their OL is horrible. Still averaging 4.6 ypc and 9.6 ypr with that OL though. Sanders has been sacked 34 times this year. In comparison, Will Howard has been sacked 8 times.

I didn't mean it as much of a knock on Edwards. He's a true freshman so I don't expect him to be elite at everything at this level. The other RB tends to do better between the tackles and gets a majority of those carries. Edwards will likely do better in there once he's had more time in the weight room.
I do agree that the CU O-Line sucks but there are a lot of other reasons for CU's sack numbers. They've attempted 50% more passes, they hold the ball longer when they do pass (couldn't find a stat on this), and I've seen speculation that they're trying to pad Sander's passing stats by not throwing it away (seems unlikely).
I'm very pro Dylan Edwards transferring to K-State. We saw what Ward's speed combined with the defense keying off Johnson's run game can create. Edwards would be even better.

Now that they’re not annoyingly overrated, I enjoy watching CU games. They’ve got some electric athletes and the overall attitude seems pretty fun.
Yep. If they can recruit or transfer in some good line talent on both sides, they could actually be pretty good.
Post by: wetwillie on November 06, 2023, 06:10:52 PM
Other than Stanford, there is nothing remotely surprising about the second half of their season. People spending the entire summer talking about how bad Colorado was going to be then flexing when they lost to a bunch of ranked teams is weirdo behavior. If anything it should be people like my guy @wetwillie, who acted like they didn't have severe line issues, should wear this one.Not sure why I'm catching strays but I agree their schedule has gone pretty much according to plan minus the Stanford game.
