People are already growing tired of it, but it’s because they don’t like Deion’s style. There are some underlying things here as well, IMO, that I won’t get into. 

For the continued naysayers, if Deion is your coach and he had resurrected your 2-10 football team, you’d love him. 

I get all that, I am just strictly talking about the media now becoming an extension of the Buffalo program.

I don’t really see it as being any different than the attentional the Alabama’s and Clemson’s of the world have always gotten when they were really good.

You could even throw Calipari in this as well. He is on TV literally every March during tournament time.

From a competitive standpoint, what is everyone's thoughts on the media infatuation with Deion at Colorado? They are practically promoting and rooting for the program. In bounds / out of bounds?

And no, I am not hating. I'm sucked in like the rest of the sports world.

I have to think it's good for business that Colorado succeeds under him.  People pay attention to Deion.  I have already watched more Colorado football this year than I ever have.

Can't decide if this thread aged well or poorly?

The last half of the season Colorado was never mentioned because, well, they sucked. Ended up finishing where most predicted they would entering the season.

I'm rooting for Prime, but from the get-go the thing I took issue with was him continually reminding everyone to just wait until he gets his guys into the program. To start, the entire roster flipped and these were his guys, but putting that aside, how would that make you feel if you were on the team? Your head coach is basically saying "my guys aren't that great and I can't wait to replace them." It was fine upon arrival, but during this season not sure it was in good form to continually remind everyone of this.

? | BREAKING: Colorado officially has the #1 Transfer Portal Class in the entire nation for 2024 #coloradofootball #deionsanders 
The most impressive part? Coach Prime was only focused on ONE position group this week, the offensive line. Colorado landed 5 Offensive Linemen & a couple other offensive stars so far ?
?️ | Deion Sanders: "We're gonna [land] a few more players offensively, & then this weekend the defense gets all the focus."
This is what makes Deion so GREAT... he out recruited the entire nation while only focusing ONLY on Offensive Linemen... ?
This just shows the demand from players to come to Colorado as well. It barely took Coach Prime any time to find OL that wanted to come to CU, and now he's gonna do the same for other position groups & the defense.
Coach Prime is officially the KING of the Portal ?

I assume this a Deion hype page? A couple weeks ago all the stories were coming out about how they've been losing recruits and things haven't been going well. Of course it is hard to gauge recruiting now with the transfer portal... believe they led the nation on the transfer front last year, too. Recruiting out of high school apparently hasn't gone as planned.

The QB held a clipboard for UK…. Keaton (Edge) was decent but not great.

Too green to tell basically. They were 4 stars out of Spring Hills, TN High School (C/O ‘22).

At the time decision day happened it was a surprise UK got Keaton over Tennessee….. reading about a lot of people had high hopes for Keaton

PS…. These are twin brothers

Deion is a lot more than flash!  He is the real deal and definitely walks his talk.  I wish him well.

He's really into player development lol. Needs to teach Baby Deion and Hunter what a No Parking sign indicates lol. Wonder how many players he cuts this year?

Go Deion. lol
