Skip gets on my nerves but this is a good one for this thread.

I'm going to say no.

Skip is THIRSTY for relevance. His two most recent co-workers (SAS and Uncle Shay) are absolutely thriving, and Skip is an afterthought. 

Assuming you really believe in Deion's ability to recruit and coach, "the next Alabama dynasty" is a ridiculous take, even by Skip's standards. There won't be a "next Alabama." That's done. The transfer portal ended that.

I like your take Deuce.  The transfer portal is the great equalizer.

I don't think it plays as big of a factor in football as it does in basketball, but it is definitely going to spread the wealth around more than previously.

There are probably several factors here but I think one big one is only having to stay one year in hoops vs. 3 in football.  At a minimum I would like to see it changed so that college football players may enter the NFL draft after two years.

Also, I know everyone is not down with this change but I like the talent being spread out.  In some ways it can be a bit bland but I like the parity spreading around the wealth brings.  

I pity the coach on the franchise that drafts Shedeur because they are going to be instantly on the hot seat that if they don't win the talk will be that Deion will be the next coach.

Deion throws up another 4-8/5-7 this year and no one has to worry about that.

I don't think that's true.

Hard for me to see Colorado posting that record in the new Big 12.

I like Deion, always have. But Colorado is a crap show. I feel like he thinks his bravado can will them to greatness, and I expect it will wreck them in the end.

Once Shedur leaves I won't be shocked to see Deion move on.

I love Deion the player. I love Deion the NFL personality/analyst. I hate Deion the coach.
