Great athlete and player. Great self promoter, “PRIME TIME”, and high stepping into end zones. Got media spotlights for HBCU hire. Profile assist from Saban and Aflac commercials, especially during football games.

Let’s see if he can coach. He may attract enough talented coaches and players to succeed. He has been given plenty of help to be in this position.

Being a great player does not translate automatically into being a great coach.

Yep all Colorado needs now is a good HC to go along with the mouth piece and they're set!

It is so so much harder to play CB now. Everything is so different. He was known for high stepping touchdowns, most of which came on returns

you realize how long it is until signing day 2024? and with absolutely ZERO loyalty once giving a verbal by recruits nowadays, this dude may switch his college choice 25 more times...

Deion was a pussy on physicality. He couldn't make a tackle to save his life or help stop the run. I agree on him being the best man CB though.

I get a gigantic Jontre Kirklin/Sage Ryan vibe off this kid.

He's a terrific high school player but I just don't know if those skills translate to college. He's small, he's not that physical...I think he'd be a take for us, but I don't know that we aren't on better players. I like Joseph Stone, Zion Ferguson and Wallace Foster all better than this guy. Wardell Mack, too.

Which is not to say I won't be happy if he flips. I just think he's interchangeable with a bunch of other RB/WR/DB athletes who are 5-11, 175 and run 4.5 or maybe a little less. There's like 5 of them in the state this year.

Committed to a program that might make it to average.

I don’t know how many of y’all actually so prime play, but he was and is not the greatest at his position not even close. Great closing speed and great at playing the ball in the air. He could not and would not tackle. He was soft as tissue paper.

I think Deion can go 12 wins and 24 losses in next three years and he will still pull top recruits.

Not saying he will perform that poorly, but he’s got what recruits want.

Lots of angst over a kid who lacks elite speed and a true position

ETA: sorry as I know this kid may flip as it’s 10 months til signing day but if we are being honest he’s a dime a dozen athlete in Louisiana.

He never shied away from contact with the football when the QB threw it.

We should never ever fret over a WR leaving LA.

We grow some great ones on trees, and if we need to, we'll grab some from elsewhere...
