Go look at the threads when the season started. We had posters claiming the site was littered with nazi stormfront posters and any criticism of Sanders was because the board was super racist.

This board along with the media propped him up so much it made a division between the two groups more than it needed to be.

Not much is said about the topic now from those posters. Well except stupid shite like you just posted

The biggest non game thread of that day. This is linked to right when they won

One of those bump worthy threads for each group

as a white man I recognize this, a bunch of self-righteous soft white men melting over Deion. One of the greatest athletes in American history who jumped into coaching, yeah he probably doesn’t know what he is doing, but he’s been around the best, like Bobby Bowden and Jimmy Johnson among others. I swear in America, if you get any publicity from the media, you better go 100-0 cause the soft people will come out the woodwork.

He'll outdo Karl Dorrell last year by outright finishing dead last in the Pac12.

I don't see any reason they wouldn't at least continue to recruit well at DB which is an important position but they need to keep building the overall roster

If he had an ounce of humility maybe he wouldn’t be hated so much, but it’s not a hot take to hate on a loud mouth douche when that douche is not successful.

It was 49-7 at half?

Surprised the WSU coach didn't keep running it up. I would have to embarrass the clown.

Honestly before this season I used to like and respect Sanders. Now I see it's just a freak show and he will use anything/everything at his disposal to make himself look better. Playing DB, he could back up his mouth but now he's stuck just talking.

Please do tell how identifying how overrated and ridiculous the media hype at the start of the season is because he is black? Are people criticizing all black coaches?

I forgot when David Shaw was hated for his success? I forgot how Charlie Strong was hated at his stint in Louisville where he did a great job. What about James Franklin? Despite not winning crap at PSU, the guy is till revered by some and that means white people are racist.

Deion’s attitude and actions along with random people all of a sudden calling CU “Black America’s Team” did get annoying because they beat some overrated teams.

In the end, the undeserved media hype is the problem on top of Deion abusing that overhype and how he let his players behave.

Nobody is championing for Deion currently. They are responding to people like you who keeps bringing it up after all the media hype he received as in some I told you so fashion. Facts are this is his 1st year and should be given the chance to build his program.

Agreed. It was a fun story for the first month with nothing else was going on. Outside of people here saying he is a bum, I haven’t heard much from Colorado in a while.

He was clearly over hyped but they did manage to just barely exceed preseason expectation of two or three wins.


They finished in last place in the PAC-12 last year

They are gonna finish in last place in the PAC-12 this year

So much improvement

Shocking news: people dislike media whores who are hype over substance.


But do they really? The Kardashians, Boy bands, Nickelback, Dane Cook, on and on. The evidence would suggest that media whores with hype over substance are pretty damn popular.
