Four Colorado players entered the transfer portal Monday, including starters Montana Lemonious-Craig at wide receiver and Tyrin Taylor at safety, the latest developments for a reshaped roster under new coach Deion Sanders.


I seriously doubt these guys were encouraged to leave. The magic portal always has an element to it that either suggests we are slowing getting down to our 85 or it can take on the appearance of something is wrong. That hit a little harder to the latter.

The first receiver had 150 yards receiving in the spring game. Rumor is he used the game to up his NIL value.

They were 1-11 last year. The next three years:

7-5
9-3
11-1 playoffs
No chance. They may level out as a 9-3 program but they aren’t going to have a winning record this year and won’t be a playoff team within a few years. I’ll bet on that heavily.

But,. Crb can use more characters like him at the coaching position.

Look at sold out tix, he always had the it factor, now has to prove it.

Crb media will eat up his words every presser. Like chicks fawning over a boy band

Colorado has seen more of a player exodus in recent days. Since April 15, Colorado has had 17 players enter the portal, including starting cornerback Nikko Reed, defenders Simeon Harris and Na'im Rodman, and running back Jayle Stacks.

He basically said he was going to run off the returning guys in his opening remarks to the team so it's not too surprising.

The kid from Lafayette that just decommitted last night made a comment that the coaches lied to him on how they were going to use him.

Correct, and I understand he is trying to upgrade the roster, but I don’t think there is 17 5 star kids at his positions of need ready to jump to CU. These things take time, even in the world of NIL and transfer portal. I think CBK has done a great job at managing the portal. Prime going about it his own way, I think he is leaning a little heavy on the portal side and it’s not just scrubs leaving Boulder, if you look it’s some pretty good talent in some cases.

Anyone good, who played last year? The team had one win. Not sure they were stacked with talent and sounds like moral and atmosphere was horrible. Dead wood may have to bounce. We will see who picks them up and if they play on a good team.

Either Deion is actually laying down the law and these guys can't handle it, or he actually doesn't really know how to manage players at a power 5 school, he's a fraud, and these players see through his bullshite. I'm not claiming one or the other is true, but that is a lot of damn players hitting the portal.

Which seems unrealistic. Much to what someone else said, he’s got some kind of master plan or he is delusional. Will be interesting to see because you know there is no one there in Boulder pushing back from coaches to admin. He’s got the keys to the car, let’s see what happens.

after seeing the absolute disaster Prime Prep was I just can't imagine Deion being able to run a successful power 5 program for a sustainable time.
