Very true. It just feels like this Nation has taken a massive step back in regards discrimination and bigotry.Well, terrible racism exists across the entire world. Given the US’ size and remarkable heterogeneity, it’s surprising the US doesn’t actually have more problems.
They just have a platform now, so it's louder. It's always been there.Very true. It just feels like this Nation has taken a massive step back in regards discrimination and bigotry.
I agree with you here.I'm see curious how recruits respond to Lanning near term and long term. He assumed that if the Ducks could just kick CU's ass, the narrative would end and Coach Prime would no longer be a threat. I think he misjudged the situation.
To me he looked petty and insecure on Saturday, and Prime emerged as the more mature and likable coach.
But I'm wondering if others outside the two programs are seeing that (I'm pretty biased). I'm wondering if recruits see that.
I suspect that they do.
Maybe that's why keyshawn Johnson was saying Oregon was getting a lot of outside help/info on Colorado todayI agree with you here.
I also think opposing coaches misjudge the situation with Sanders. If he is viewed has a confident black man approaching a traditionally white fraternity, then ganging up on him to try to suppress him will instead make him a rallying point
That gets reinforced when Lanning is so outwardly hostile. Imagine if Prime talked that much ****. Prime is flashy and confident and calls out the media and haters... but I can't recall him directly talking **** about an opponent. If he did you can imagine the outrage. Yet Lanning gets treated like a savior of college football.
IMHO the two most racist towns in this country are Chicago and Boston. Baltimore is a close thirdMidwesterners are some of the nicest, fairest, non-racist people you’ll ever meet as well. I’ve witnessed racism in SoCal, NoCal, Denver, Midwest, NYC, Texas and Florida.
Almost started a new thread for this, but this is crazy if true. It truly is us against the world.
Absolutely. Fear. They know they cannot sell connection, accountability and family like CP.The fraternity is terrified.
It provides clarity. It was everything I needed to hear, too.Primes humble and congratulatory speech toward Lanning, followed up with “they better get me now cause this is the worst we’re going to be” has to be awesome for recruits to hear

I’ve said it before, but what struck me the most about one of Coach Prime’s first meetings with players was in telling them that the cameras were going to tell the whole story. The good and the bad. So understand that going in.One thing I believe drives a lot of the polarization is that Coach Prime is so extremely honest that he puts everything out there - recruiting practices, coaching room, team meetings, practices, slice of life stuff from players, coaches & staff... then also talks about things openly and non-politically which most avoid touching on or don't want to be made public about the profession, industry and sport. People fear his honesty.

He does this but he just doesn't fit the mold. Look at coaching hirings. It's all about the mold. Every coach aims to be in the mold. Deion is an obvious outsider. He didn't do it their way. I seen this at Jackson. But it's even worse at Colorado. Probably because none of the coaches look like him and get really well paid, there is no one kissing up to him. Willie, him, Eddie George, and Coach Dancy all became close but the other coaches in the SWAC hated Prime. The only coaches I seen go out their way to lean support to Prime in the FBS is Marcus Freeman and Nick Saban who are still working HCs. So far, I don't see him with many advocates. Chip Kelly seems to be okay with him as far as I've listened to.One thing I believe drives a lot of the polarization is that Coach Prime is so extremely honest that he puts everything out there - recruiting practices, coaching room, team meetings, practices, slice of life stuff from players, coaches & staff... then also talks about things openly and non-politically which most avoid touching on or don't want to be made public about the profession, industry and sport.

I think Lincoln Riley has been very positive on Prime since the beginning as well.He does this but he just doesn't fit the mold. Look at coaching hirings. It's all about the mold.

Prime also gets a lot of attention. Regardless of what he does. That isn't liked among other coaches unless it's earned. It is what it is.
I share that impression. Well established coaches who aren't complete curmudgeons about change (Mack, Lincoln, Lane, Chip, Urban, Saban) are so secure about who they are and what they do that they don't feel threatened by Coach Prime in the way others do. They recognize and appreciate good coaching and organizational practices, so they're cool with Coach Prime, will be complimentary, and take whatever lessons they can apply to their own program models.I think Lincoln Riley has been very positive on Prime since the beginning as well.
I think coaches who are confident in their own abilities and process are not only not intimidated by Prime, but welcome the additional interest he brings to college football.
I'm pretty sure two of those guys are trolls and that salmons dude is always bitching about something.

Deion Sanders Leaving Colorado Football For Broncos Head-Coaching Job Has Intriguing Odds
There are odds that suggest Deion Sanders could leave Colorado football and become the Broncos head coach in 2024.clutchpoints.com
She made it past the 30 in the 2nd half, I think, but only because the handlers lined up and forced her (as much as you can force Ralphie to do anything) to run further before making her initial turn.she made it to the 40 on the opening run and might've crossed the 20 on the 2nd half run
