By recruiting players to "shine the light on HBCU's".......until a higher paying job that feeds your ego with more attention comes along and then you can turn your back on your less talented teammates.

Like get in the magic portal. So far, 31 players have done just that, and counting. Now there's a life lesson.

What would be a fail ?

They sold out the spring game

If they sale out the season and go 7-8 is that a fail ?

I don't think Deion will fail. I don't think he will win a championship either. But I expect him to have Colorado competitive and playing in bowl games for the next few years. That's a rousing success from their standpoint.

I highly doubt Les Miles was this great student of the game. Ed Orgeron had no real coaching experience when he became the head coach at LSU, he also won a NC. If those two clowns can win a NC, Sanders can definitely make Colorado respectable.


Les Miles was a backup player at Michigan who graduated on time with a degree in economics. He didn't get his first coaching job based on some NFL HOF type career. He spent 22 years as an assistant coach under College HOF coaches like Bo Schembechler and Bill McCartney.

Ed Orgeron had "no real coaching experience"? Yeah, other than the 31 years of coaching experience under HOF college coaches Jimmy Johnson and Dennis Erickson and Super Bowl Champion coaches Pete Carroll and Sean Payton.

Clowns or not, they both had great resumes and experience in building and maintaining successful programs. Deion Sanders had no such experience before being hired as a head coach.

And what does ranking have to do with what I said? Do you believe TCU had more talent than Alabama last year? Wasn’t TCU ranked higher?

You don't win multiple national titles because of great talent and bad coaching.


Getting talent on campus is part of coaching and he’s far and away the best at it. He’s also the best at everything prior to stepping on the football field.
If you have talent an a competent passing attack his defenses will be scored on.

He's going to get good recruits to Colorado and they will be a lot better than they have been in the past. It's not rocket science.

What he's not is a grinder or a student of the game. Deion is not going to be up at 4 am watching film or installing 3rd and short defensive packages. There's a reason why the most successful coaches are boring, dry and dull

That can be said about any team, but that doesn't necessarily mean he is bad at X's and O's and is winning strictly based on talent. LSU was consistently at the top of the recruiting game during Orgeron's tenure, but it wasn't until they got the right group of coaches together that LSU won the NC under him. When those guys all left(coaches) we saw what happened over the next two years. And don't give me that "because of Burrow" BS either. He was there in 2018 too, and they were average at best.

Some just want him to fail, and some are caught up in the Prime persona. He doesn't have the experience other coaches do because he was playing two sports, winning Super Bowls with the Cowboys and 49ers. Then at the end of his career, he joined the Ravens with Ray Lewis and Ed Reed. Not coaching, but that's years of experience at the highest levels of football that will be part of who he is as a coach.

Then he was an analyst with NFL Network for 14 years. That's experience too. He was around the game every year. Drafts, combines, etc.

He's going to be able to give DBs (and defensive players in general) a lot of knowledge and put them in positions to make plays and anticipate opportunities for turnovers.

I honestly can't believe how many people actually think Sanders knows how to coach football with the big boys.

His success at JSU was grounded solely in his celebrity status that drew talent to him that was so far superior to his opponents that it couldn't be overcome with scheme.

That's not going to happen at this level. He'll still have the rock star appeal and will nab more high star gullible recruits than previous staffs, but it won't be enough to win.

He's basically a loud well-known moron. That's his gift. That obviously plays well with 17 year olds. But this is all going to end in flames with this guy exposed.

He doesn’t put on his hard hat and come to work? He’s not the first guy in the building and the last to leave?

Deion implements rules and a dress code and is viewed as turning around a "culture".

Kirk Ferentz has rules and a dress code for 20 years and is viewed as "racist".

Tell me the logic in any of that?

If he kicked his son out of a meeting for being 5 min early instead of 10min early the wouldn't let him play because he missed the meeting...
GTFO. That may work on his son but that about it.

I think he would stay at Florida State as long as he could. He might even stay at Florida or Miami just to poke FSU for not hiring him.

People say George Allen slept on a cot in his Redskins office once the season started. He's the only one I've heard that kind of stuff about.
