Prime is fortunate Colorado started off 3-0 that he and Colorado were able to cash in. I feel this year might be a tire fire for Colorado.
We Coming!!
Ya said that all last year and went 4-8. Take a seat 😂
Sure, Marvin. Deion needs to actually develop people. All he does is use the transfer portal and doesn't even recruit high school kids.
Notice how Deion talking about his sons draft stock instead of his team lol
What father wouldn’t tho
@@rodneyjones1028 a good one
The dude talked about his son first🤷🏾♀️ Tell the story correctly.😏
BRUUUHH, the comment he replied to wasn't about the team, it was about his son... 🤷🏾 If you wouldn't go to bat for your son then YOU'RE A WHOLE COWARD😘
@@MHardy-ri6sdTYYYY
Thank god Rich didn’t cover this Deion segment. Eisen definitely is a Deion groupie!
So
Unfortunately this is so true
he'll circle back on it when he comes back and yes he will say prime did nothing wrong
That’s a fact, prime has a lot of its own media that are groupies, yeah maybe few really dont rock with him, but for the most part some of these outlets refuse to bring a un biased assessment of what is really going on, especially fox with Keyshawn& skip , Colorado always bring the narrative that everyone is against them, but that’s ironic because when a team has a reality show & constantly pushing this wonderful program 🤔what does it expect people to do? Not speak on concerns & situations?thats crazy to expect, everyday something goes on in Colorado so everyday someone is going to speak on it , to think differently &expect differently is crazy! This is what prime wanted ,to glamorize this experiment so now you have that attention why now cry about people hating?in his words ,(do you believe now?)they show it to the world everyday now people want to see the wins they say “is coming “!
“Deion knows exactly what he’s looking for”. Must be why 63% of the new players he brought in last year transferred out this year. Because Deion is SO good at talent evaluation and shopping in the portal.
Great assortment from 2
Prime is loving this free earned media from Social…even bad media is good for Colorado…
We need objective media coverage, not bias. Is that so hard.
I’ll never forget when Travis Hunter told Deion that he needed to come out of a game cuz he heard something “pop” and Deion told him that he couldn’t be injured cuz “God wouldn’t have brought you this far” for him to go out like that. Deion told this story at a press conference and I guess nobody seemed to think it was strange to rely on God for diagnosing injury rather than a medical professional.
When was this?
Why are all of the "what ifs" about Shedur, Coach Prime and the Buffs so negative and hate-filled...ignoring the coaching-staff and great players they recently acquired?
Xavier smith safety and deion never bashed the ex player stop painting worse than it is.
I'm glad Tom was here to talk about this, no way Rich would touch it. Maybe 15 seconds in passing
This is going to end badly…
For cu haters
Kid was gon be riding the bench deion did the kid a favour 😂
Deion is great entertainment, which is what he’s always preached. He’s bringing eye to an otherwise irrelevant program. That said, he still unproven and hasn’t won on the P5 level and his inexperience shows with these antics. His process is definitely the most unique, but until he can prove he can win with this style of program building, he’s gonna get heavily criticized like now. Clapping back, especially to irrelevant trolls, shows a lot of his through process. They are beneath him, he should only clap back to national pundits with established audiences, like Chublock- not bots.
So... you praise the guy who "dunked" on them but slate Deion and Shedeur for defending themselves and each other...? We see your agenda
Deon is great at playing the system and is a great salesman, but how good is he at developing talent?
Terrible
Unless you are Travis or his sons
Deion*
Can he get more than 1 season to develop his players?
@@trelaw1235 not if he tries to get rid of them all 😂
This is what they talk about when Eisen isn't around lol~ Most likely cause Rich would say what needs to be said about Deion!
More of the same, with maybe about 2 more wins possibly! But wouldn't be surprised if they ain't no better than last year!
Get dat hate out ya heart
@@billeh60 did you ever ask yourself, why you have a problem with a difference of opinion? 🤔When it comes down to it, that's all it is! So tell me why you really mad?
@@justinblack1922 cause they upgraded their roster all around and replace their biggest needs with top talent and you saying you wouldn’t be surprised is hating. Not to mention the easier schedule but yeah sure difference of opinion
@@billeh60 yes I do agree they did upgrade, but the reason I wouldn't be surprised is because that schedule is not as easy as a lot of people think, This big 12 may not have as many good quarterbacks, but they do have teams that have been together and can run the ball, and that’s where I think the problems gonna come, And I’m not even talking about the target that Colorado has on its back! I just think a lot of fans are under estimating these teams in the big 12 that’s all I’m saying no hate. yeah I’m tough on prime, but I still watch enough football and know enough to know that bring together almost a whole new team again ain’t a good recipe for wins. People talk about all the games Colorado was in last year and maybe could have won but what about the games that they did win that they could have possibly loss Colorado state, Nebraska without all the fumbles they had, and even Arizona State played them tough. I don’t know where y’all get all this , when a person speaks his opinion, and it doesn’t agree with Colorado fans, a person has to hate!
@@justinblack1922 you talking about possible losses is also hating wtf 💀I can do the same thing they would’ve been 10-2 if a couple plays would’ve went their way or less penalties cause they only got blown out twice last season every other game was by 3-7 points easily winnable if they were coached better or shedeur had some time to throw the damn ball look up who the most sacked fbs qb was then look up the scores of their games. Most of the QBs he went against are in the league you can’t tell me cu is gonna struggle with an upgraded line and receivers even if the defense struggles with the run they have to keep up with shedeur but keep being in denial about your hate until he gets drafted #1
Doink
The whole Deion sideshow only works if he’s winning. You better win this year Neon.
This Man took over a dead program! Rebuilt it from the ground up. Brought a couple hundred million dollars to Boulder! And yo speak of this man as if he is a LOSER!!! He is a two sport superstar. He hit .533 in the World Series the same year he played in, and won a superbowl!!! WHO DOES THAT!?...He's coached 4 junior teams to championsips. Coached to 3 state highschool championships. And followed that up with two SWAC championships... You folks hope to GOD he doesn't pull this off!!! you hope to GOD his son isn't as good as he seems. But this is not to be. Coach Prime is a winner. It's what he does...Period. The hate is real...And so the winning will be. See you all this season...SKO BUFFS!!!
Prime has now officially taken the bait - I thought he was so much smarter than this... instead, he gets led down the rabbit hole and exposes what many of us have already known. Prime took over coaching a very small Christian school outside of Dallas so that Shedeur could be the starting QB. He paid tuition for students who were also football athletes who would help the team during his tenure. Albeit I think that's a wonderful gesture, he didn't just do it out of the kindness of his heart. Prime has had a plan all along, and was willing to pay for it. Same with JSU. When he got to CU - which was the next evolution here in the plan - get Shedeur D1 exposure. Put him in the conversation. The problem I have here, is that Prime is operating under a false pretense. That he's doing this as a true "coach". He's not. He's doing it as a dad who will do anything to get his son to the next level. If Prime thought that CU having a 1-9 season would lead Shedeur still to a top pick - he'll do it. Prime is out after this year - watch and learn. Everywhere Shedeur has been, Prime went and was the top dog shot caller - not saying that Shedeur wasn't the best option for that particular team, but helps greatly that dad isn't out cultivating or looking for more talent in that position - because you're it - tunnel vision. In fairness - I do not think Shedeur will muster up to be a good NFL QB - he has no where near the competitive drive his dad had as an athlete and player, he is not even on the same planet when you talk football IQ and making good reads and decisions, leadership, etc. If you follow this kid and Prime - like I have - watch how he's progressed to almost a narcissistic personality - flash, bling, ice, the rolls royce, the louis v man purse, etc... that's what is important to Shedeur right now... it's a shame - Prime has done this all for nothing. In the end - anyone who thinks Shedeur won't be drafted is nuts. He will. Just not a top 3 round pick. I'd say you're looking at him going in 4th-6th rounds and it will be done partially as a favor to Prime and partially as a huge gamble where he would be coming in to 'backup' an existing bonafide starter. Hey, at the very least to sit there and not worry about getting hurt, get great insurance, have access to all the team facilities, and then collect a few mil $'s as a back up - I'd say job well done... nonetheless I love the trash talk right now though... kinda funny seeing the Prime family come apart a little bit over 'tweets'... lmfao.
I would never draft Shedeur. He is the opposite of a leader.
His twitter comment was foolish to be sure
@@TheTrueObelusJust another red flag at this point
Commenting negatively about a kid in college just screams leadership… 😅
@Noahvon503 good it’s not up to you…
You’d never be in position to make important decisions 😂😂
I can absolutely see the CU locker room being a toxic diva show
Been thinkin sanders will be a cowboy. He fits them.
True he's an entitled diva that throws blame, he'll fit perfect in Dallas
Colorado wasn't a good team but they were fun. And made a lot of money for the school, which is all they care about.
Shedeur Sanders will be a Top 5-10 pick because the Jets and Raiders will be there and the front office doesn't know squat in building a roster. A TE in the first round? Signing a 38-yr old QB? Sanders, at best, is a Day 3 QB.
Weird, the draft experts and pro scouts has him as the best QB in the draft. 🥴😂
They win 4 games again then he moves on after his kids clean out all of Colorado’s NIL and leave for the NFL
Average but that's an improvement, 6-6 or 7-5
Don't get me wrong before someone gets their feelings hurt, but I had respect for Deion when he played the game. But they (him and his son) want to take shots at former Buffaloes on ESPN about the formers talent level. Bro you might want to fix that 4-8 record before you run that mouth. If you're gonna talk the talk, then walk the walk.
You mean the former players that went 1-11 and lost by an AVERAGE of 29ppg? They went 4-8 with no time to actually recruit players. No hot bed area close to CU either. Had a bad OL and DL and couldn’t run the ball bc the OC never called designed run plays. So all of that contributed to a season where they won 4 games and lost 5 by 7 points or less. That’s called progress. Sacked 58 times but still threw for 3k yards, 30 td’s and only 3 ints. They also played 8 teams that were ranked at some point during the season. I don’t think that counts as a weak schedule. Add Bo nix and Caleb to the QB’s faced. Cam Ward as well, who was the best QB in the portal. They didn’t have a cupcake schedule. Only had 2 bad losses all season compared to the year prior where the avg loss was 29 points. If you think the OL that’s at CU isn’t going to be much better you’re delusional. Pat shurmer is the OC as well.
Excuses excuses...some of the portal kids are pretty good...I'm not saying that they possibly didn't have a good team...the record is what it is...show me a 10-2 record or better next season ..then I'll eat my words..
@@user-bh5hg3kz4c you’re not looking for facts. You just said observable proven facts were excuses. lol I believe they will be 10-2 or better. For you to say that’s your metric to eat your words from a program to go from 1-11, 4-8 and they need to go 10-2 to be worthy of your respect isn’t even disingenuous is clownish. lol
@@unpopulartruth1164 Arizona did it 🤷🏾... 1-11 to 5-7 to 10-3
@@anthonybassett4313 is that normal progression or did they get lucky by Noah having to step in and actually balling? Nobody would’ve told Jed he was a bad coach if he won 9 games either. See, that’s called being disingenuous. Which ppl tend to be when speaking on prime. lol He’s called a bad recruiter when he got the job in late December. Literally a day before the portal opened. Went from 1-11 losing by 29ppg to 4-8 losing by less than 7ppg. You don’t have to like him but just don’t be disingenuous about it.
6-6
Shadeur Sanders will be lucky to be a Round 1 pick in what will be a weak QB class compared to this year.
lol it’s a copy cat league, only 2-3 qb’s should of went in the first round. If Brock purdy would of won I guarantee teams would of been building like the niners. Mahomes won so everyone hella reaching for a QB 😅
@@mind_haze2414 I hadn't seen Mahomes at Texas Tech, but I had him lamped as a star after the combines. There's no comparison. Sanders is talented but very, very raw. I don't think teams are going to be clamoring for him unless he really lights things up this season.
@@JohnDrummondPhoto I hear ya but sanders can definitely throw the rock on a frozen rope, it’ll be nice to see him not running for his life every play. The expectations last year were kinda ridiculous, anyone who paid attention knew the trenches were a problem at Colorado so only time will tell. 🍻
Also cmon no way he’s not a first round pick Josh Rosen from ucla went top 10 😂
Shedeur had a top 5 TD-INT ratio while playing against the same type of competition Caleb Williams played against
Look for Jerry Jones to sabotage the season then hire Deon and draft his son.
Team America says 4-8 Durka Durka Rocky Mtn 420
Cowboys will draft Deon’s Son… mark my words….
What's the big deal?
The guy doing all the talking is a clown. He just said “if anywhere in the first rd”. Which is why he tried to go with the lazy narrative that the spring game attendance was down. When the other guy provided context of the rain and freezing cold weather, he tried to brush past those details. lol Also, he’s still going to be the first QB taken! He would go to 9th bc the teams above in the mock draft just drafted a QB or have one under long term contract.
Who the hell is this on rich show
You guys make me laugh with your narrative. I dont know any college QB that took that many sacks and still put up big numbers. Never forget the Mannings set the standard of manipulating where you go in the draft way before Caleb Williams or what Prime said and you don't even mention it. 🤦🏿♂️ College football has changed woth NIL and the portal. Its semi pro and prime is way ahead of the game and everyone knows it. The days of getting the majority of your roster from high school is over. A lot are intimidated because with this change its going to be even harder to out recruit him when he wins.
Shedeur will not win a Heisman or be a top 5 pick. 😂
@thunderhato84 so you can see into the future?
@@lyndaharris6263 educated guess...probably right
He’s prolly going to be both actually.
@@unpopulartruth1164 Put the pipe down. 😂
@@thundergato84 what’s the odds on Shedeur being the first pick?🤔😂 he’s literally the top QB in the draft.
I love Deion, but his kid is gonna be a NIGHTMARE to deal with. The only coach he's ever listened to is his father and he's not gonna be able to be by his side for his pro career, as limited as it might be.
I mean…I’m a fan of “COACH PRIME” and his son and Colorado and all but they kinda need to stfu and win some football games.
How can they win football games if they season doesn’t start for months?
Sanders seems soft AF
I think quinn ewers is top QB at the moment 🤷♂️
He’s not even the top QB at his school lol
@@unpopulartruth1164 arch has a lot of hype. He might be better but who knows. He hasn’t played.
@@unpopulartruth1164 I was mainly talking draft eligible next year. Id take ewers over shadeur and some of the other guys at the moment
@@CUTS_cards he looked much better at the spring game! lol
@@CUTS_cards you’d be fired lol Shedeur is the betting favorite and mock drafted as the top QB already. That’s coming off a bad season with a horrible OL. He’ll prolly win the heisman this year.
Coach Prime is doing good things at Colorado. Peace and Blessing to Coach Prime and all that he is trying to accomplish.
Colorado should improve this year. I say 5-6
Shadeur will not be a top 5 pick
We already don’t care. He won’t be first round pick but his fathers name will make it so
He’s going to be the first QB taken 😂😂😂
@@unpopulartruth1164 no he won’t. You’re absolutely wild if you think that. It’s all hype his dad created. 1) talent is not first round 2) there are major character flaws being shown.
@@jamesureel2853 😂😂😂 get out of your feelings and pay attention to the ppl who get paid to scout and evaluate players.
@@unpopulartruth1164 I’m not in my feelings. He doesn’t have the arm talent. You’re not hearing from scouts right now you’re listening to sports talk show hosts hype. It’s all hype no substance. Same thing last year after they beat TCU it was the biggest story then epic flop. Dude has a lot of flaws as a qb that will get him eaten alive in the nfl.
@@jamesureel2853 the scouts and nfl executives said he was one of the best passers in this years draft if he came out! They had him at QB3.
Colorado will not have a good season because the Sanders clan keeps running players away. It's more to a team than the Sanders and Hunter. I'm not hating bc the Sanders make it so easy to not like them!
Maybe you should check who came in as much as you check who leaves 😂😂😂
Both Sanders just showed their full behinds on this one. It's easy to treat your stars well, but how you treat the bottom of your roster guys is most indicative of who you are as a leader and a person. They just showed they suck at both. You're the coach and QB1, why would you think it's ok to say how mid one of your non-star teammates was and Mariah him? Really shows how divorced from reality they are that they thought they were the good guys in this.
You mean like charlie? A walk on player from the 1-11 team? The one who stayed and worked his tail off and just earned a scholarship?🤔 I guess that stuff isn’t negative so yall don’t care about it as much huh?
Freakishly athletic former players have never made good coaches. (With the possible exception of Bill Russell who had the attitude of a role player even though he wasn't) Because what made them great they can't teach. Deion will be out of coaching in a few years because he is all flash and no substance. And the way Deion and his son clapped back says it all.
I know it's a smaller division, but didn't He win a championship at his previous school at Jackson State? and his overall record is pretty good too. Maybe in coaching at a smaller division is where he thrives. But you can't say he's not a good coach and not look at his overall record. Or what he has accomplished previously.
@@egoraptorschin9412 Colorado came in last place, yet Sports Illustrated gave him coach of the year honors? Confusing, yes! It’s all flash, and little substance. The Kardashians of football, and they have man purses to boot!
@Anonymousthanks He did attract a ton of talent but had no idea what to do with it all.
@Anonymousthanksthey did win their conference championship 2x in a row. 🤦🏾♂️ the irony of judging a coach after being on campus for a year and not having the ability to recruit anyone. lol
4-8. They go 8-4 this year at best, even with a cupcake schedule. Prove it on the field, guys.
The Shedman Shedeur may get picked up by an NFLTeam, but will wash out fast. He is just too interested in the lifestyle versus the game itself.
That's what they said about Shedeur's dad
@@coreyhansen9711 interesting, guess we will have to see how it plays out!
NCAA should have suspended Deion for his torture of Hunter after his Lacerated Liver Injury Hunter was rushed backed back to play for a losing team and Deion forced him to play 140 PLAYS This type of punishment exposed Hunter to a potential life threatening exhaustion I am out on Deion the man and father and coach. I been in Dallas past 40 years and know the pain Deion has caused . Shame on my fellow Wolverine for supporting Deion
Lmao that’s not true trav could’ve played in the usc game if he wanted to rush back but prime kept him at home. Stop spreading lies
Deion never Saud that he will only allow his sons to go to certain NFL teams. Deion address this. That is fake news. Dude do your research
5-6 wins?
10
I hope they lose every game on their schedule, acting like a grown man child on twitter and attacking former athletes in their program. Shedeur being immature, and you could see he’s been fed with a golden spoon his entire life. Thinking he’s a top 5 talent, let alone a R1 talent. The medias refusal to reprimand Deion for his childish responses, is this the guy who’s supposed to lead young men?
They responded to what the players that left said about them. Dont be naive
They’re going to win most if not all the games on their schedule. Lol
Please already~ Sanders is cooked, his son is burned for next years draft lol! Nobody's gonna play for him now! Deion needs to learn, the world is built by the little guy... Not the all star~ Deion's story will shadow that of Icarus~
You’re easily fooled by the internet Lmao
😂 Looks like doo doo Overrated coach Sub par team😂
What do u do for a living?
New season, same haters. God, these people are insufferable.
IKR!!! I commented on Prime's success at Jackson State and got a negative comment ... "who cares about HBCUs" Sad. Jealousy is an evil thing.
I don’t understand what’s going on. The Athletic did a report on players from the beginning of last year. This old news. And with it being old news. Why can’t anyone respond to a hit piece? If someone dredged up your ex for a current interview and they told their side of it; you wouldn’t want to respond? Does having a platform mean you can’t respond ever? I’m confused. And Sheduer is a player, a peer. What’s the issue?
Most people commenting know little to nothing about Sanders, his career or his family....He is a winner...Most of us don't know or have never been around a true winner. He is a winner and has always been one. It's what he knows. and it's what he has taught his kids, and the teams he has coached. What he is doing in Boulder, is what he did in Jackson. Goes something like this: Jackson State Script. First year a few more wins, build the team. Second year Son balls out, they win The SWAC. Third year son balls out again, they win the SWAC. Colorado, 1st year afew more wins. build the team. second year win Big 12 Championship, make the playoffs Build the team. Third year????...Natty!!!!
He better start winning then lol
Glad to see someone else has not ignored what Prime did at Jackson State. Of course, folks try to downgrade his accomplishments there because it was a HBCU. Sad.
@@JSauer21 He's had one season. Keep that same energy for your favorite coach.
@@dochilliard2434 My team's stuck in mediocrity too don't worry, I just don't make Coach Norvell out to be some God, and I already know y'all hate him and wish harm on him and his family off the field
You can tell he want Coach Prime to fail guess what it won’t happen
Bro, it's definitely gonna be a rough season. Nobody did anything but speak facts and truth on this video. I understand you don't like hearing it as a Deion fan or whatever, but get over it
@@Noahvon503it’s going to be a great season lol went to a weaker conference and got considerably better!
Glad I'm not the only one who picked up on instant negativity from guest host, whoever he is??!!
I’d like Shedeur on the Raiders but he can’t be doing that Twitter stuff man it’s a bad look. Hope he balls out tho
@Lethal2kn people all in their feelings because of what Shedeur said. It wasn’t that serious. I’ve heard NBA players & NFL players say worse.
@@tengillethis is so stupid. Did they not have way better teams? They didn’t have better years than Shedeur did. If you switch Shedeur with any of those QB’s the teams are national title favorites! None of them would’ve have 3k passing yards, 30td’s and 3 ints behind the OL Shedeur had to deal with and there was no threat of a running game. So please tell me again what those QB’s who had more ints on better teams would do at CU.
Tom obviously doesn’t like Prime. I’m guessing Rich is going to say something about that.
Oh plz. Tom did nothing wrong at all and didn't show any negative bias.
The big question is will the college football committee leave the Colorado Buffalos out of the playoffs again this year. Colorado was probably the third best team in the country last year if not the second. But between the refs costing them wins every game last year and the biased committee not liking Coach Deion. They were rightfully screwed last year. We will see if it happens again this year.
Does Rich know that you high jacked his studio to pile on the hit piece of Coach Prime? Rich is great friends with Prime, too. Lots of positive stories at CU, but you think the negative narrative will get you more views. Look up Charlie Offerdahl's story.
Quit glazing. Nobody did anything but report the facts here. Get used to the real world.
They don’t want to do that bc it doesn’t go with the narrative they want to paint.
@@Noahvon503literally what the kid should’ve done! He got fired and now he’s complaining a year later. Doing an interview with a corn graduate. When the other players that were interviewed in the same article said they didn’t feel disrespected at all. lol
come on do you guys even do research he is the best quarter back in the country! facts!
I want Sidora on the raiders
Way to spin the story...noticed no time stamp from The Athletic or Sheduer's tweets but ya'll displayed the time stamp for Deion.....sloppy work. If ya'll gonna report it, show everything. Highly disappointed in the RE show, thought ya'll had integrity. AND Deion always post a motivational tweet and that's what that was
Sadly, folks are always going to try to denigrate Coach Prime's character and talent as a coach. Guest host, Pelissero already disrespected Coach Prime's talent as a coach when he said, "Deion is nothing, if not entertaining." This statement says to me that this guest host has totally ignored Coach Prime's tenure at Jackson State University where, during his three-year tenure, the team had a 27-6 record, appearing at the Celebration Bowl twice. He also won the SWAC championship title in his last two seasons with the program. Also, the Buffs went from 1 win to 4 wins within only a few months as a team and brought millions of dollars of revenue to the university and to Boulder as well.
lol who cares about HBCU
1 win to 4 wins to 5 wins.... cmon
Deion Jr. Will wash out quick
Xavier Smith was a safety, and the CU DB room is stuffed to the gills with talent🤷🏾 that's why Y'ALL DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO HE IS🤦🏾
He left and went to Austin peay…isn’t that mid?
