Smart move by Colorado. I’m interested to see if he can compete/coach against the top power 5 teams with equal to better talent(once he brings in some highly ranked guys). I still don’t know if he’s a good coach or if he was successful at JSU simply bc he had high ranking recruits playing for him against lower ranked players.

Just my thoughts:

This is a great deal for Colorado. They were dead and gone and Prime will get kids on campus and bring exposure to the program. It's not an overly long time and a crippling amount of money. Good deal for both parties imo.

All you boys forego the big schools to support the HBCU's and your race. You need to be black, and come here. But... I'm gone to the highest bidder.

It's about time we stop talking about race. We've all been the other 4 races on earth here in previous lives. Stop being hypocrites.

He needs a DC, right? Be glad to donate to that fund if he hires a certain Hammond native.

I think it’s a smart move by Colorado. Brings attention to a forgotten program, why not take a flyer on Deion? I can promise you this that program will continue to be in shambles without a gutsy and potentially w reckless roll of the dice like this. Nothing to lose.
