but I bet he does great with the portal and JUCOs this year


It's much easier for them to take JUCO guys, because they have graduated and can basically start a new degree path. The chancellor says that in the OP.

And voila, their first commit for this year is a JUCO guy.

I haven't seen any big portal commits, except for I guess his son. Deion is on twitter everyday tell people to step up and commit ("I ain't hard to find") but I haven't seen any.

I think it’s crazy y’all think he doesn’t know/didn’t know all this. He’s clearly a guy that has had a plan and options and chose Colorado.

Colorado currently has the #3 rated transfer class only behind Florida St. and Michigan.

The #2 player in the country is currently mulling over flipping from Miami to Colorado and that would land Colorado at the #19 class in the country. Not too shabby for a coach that’s been on the job for a month.

Landed another Florida 4* DL in the ‘24 class today.

Colorado is actually No.2 on On3's portal rankings, mostly due to volume. Their player average is pretty bad though and is the 2nd worst among teams ranked in the Top 30.

Quite the projection. Let's wait until he actually visits Boulder before we adjust their ranking. Colorado is No. 39 on On3.

Are you saying these hurdles are imaginary?


I’m saying every player Prime wants will be eligible. Regardless of whatever rules you think important. You aren’t going to hear about any ineligible players prime wants or gets. As much as you want these “rules” to cause an issue , they won’t.

Have you been under a rock? It’s literally the Wild Wild West. Guys are transferring 5 times and playing immediately. Dudes are getting an 8th year.

Nothing about the current climate makes me think prime won’t do exactly what he’s saying he wants to do.

A completely ludicrous, yet conveniently unprovable statement.

Even Deion wouldn’t make that statement. Every school has transfer requirements and must pick and choose based on them.

LSU’s Joe Foucha missed half the year due to transfer issues.

They have Integrative Physiology, Ethnic Sutdies, Communication, and Business Administration.

Lets be real, Integrative Physiology is just Kinesiology.

Business Administration might as well be the "new" general studies degree.
