His qb son will probably be a good to great pro qb. The other son will have an average career. Hunter will probably be a great CB in the NFL. Prime had a pretty good amount of talent.

Nevertheless, the job done by Sanders is impressive. He coached his games with excellent management of situations. He lacked linemen on both sides of the ball so they didnt set the league on fire, Prime squeezed out almost every bit of success that was possible. He is a legit coach but once he loses his son's seevices at qb it may be more difficult for him to continue the winning ways

Hey, ronricks ... Did you not see their schedule when you posted earlier this season that Colorado would flame out and win no more than four games? Because the internet is forever. Do you want me to pull up your post and quote it or are you just trying to move the goal posts at this point?


Who did Colorado beat? They got drug by Nebraska. Sell me on this great resume they have.

So Deion gets no credit for developing talent and improving the team from 1-11 to 9-3?

I don't have to sell anything. They just finished 9-3. You said they would flame out with no more than four wins. That's what you said, not me. Sell me on your vision. You are either disingenuous or an idiot. I'm thinking there are parts of both in there.

If you want to just post that you don't know anything about football, that's cool too.

Did he develop talent, or just get talented players from the portal?

Not saying that getting players from the portal is wrong, but he didn’t exactly develop them.

Yet another phenomenon SEC waterheads fail to understand is that when this team was bad, it was also losing to bad teams. Now that it’s beating the teams it’s supposed to, you resort to this argument like you expected them to have this record anyway.

It’s so fricking stupid.

Jesus, dude. Think about what you just posted. Seriously, read it again. Slowly. Then think about it. Critically. You may want to edit and/or delete.

you’re saying this like they’re 4-8 or something. They lost 3 games… I’m with you but they’ve had a good season. I hate what we’ve gotten to in sports with all these other stupid qualifiers that we can’t even just enjoy a good season for what it is anymore.

somehow avoided all the top teams in the conference - Arizona State, BYU, and Iowa State.

It’s not Colorado’s fault the two favorites heading into the season, Utah and Okie State, were big disappointments.

The Big 12 is a big pile of decent teams battling it out. Colorado probably benefited from not playing some of the better teams in that pile, but the other top teams also managed to avoid Colorado.

What’s stupid is pretending that Colorado is the epicenter of college football. Whatever happened to all that?

He did not develop the majority of the players on the team, they didn’t come in as freshmen and turn into great players while with him. He brought in players that were already proven. If you don’t realize the difference, then I don’t know what to tell you.

Nobody is doing that ronricks. Really everyone is just laughing internally about the things you are posting here knowing what you posted in the past. You should stop digging. You've already lost.

Let’s print the shirts. What should we put on them? Colorado the best 9-3 team in the Big12? Best 9-3 team in nation? You have to have some nuance here.

Sorry that Alabama isn’t. Maybe fall back on something else about the state for once.

The same idiots that were ready to crown a 3-0 Colorado team last season are taking a victory lap on a 9-3 season in an easier conference. And then they have the gall to say that the goalposts were moving.

ETA: I don’t know what happened to the beginning of that first sentence
