Yes. I know what the Trop is. I don't know what it has to do with the conversation other than it is in Tampa.Tropicana Field: Home of the Rays | Tampa Bay Rays

“Deion Sanders was seen touring the USF facilities today”
But he couldn’t have been because he was “filmed at practice with his team getting ready for the SWAC CCG”. So I made the joke that he was indeed practicing with his team, but at Tropicana Field (trying to use a more esoteric field than RayJ yet still in Tampa)….which would then explain how he could be both touring the University of South Florida, which is located in Tampa, while ALSO practicing with his team on the same day…at a stadium located in the Tampa area.
ugh. Never mind.
I'm gonna need Manhattan and Hokie to get a room to work through this affect/effect business. 
What has been said in the Deion-USF rumor reports:
1. Deion was at USF this morning. FALSE. There is video of him addressing team.
2. USF offered. Details of 5 years / $5M per. Also that it's $5M for assistants. TRUE (probably). Reports are that CU offered more.
3. USF agreed to give Prime complete control of Football Ops. TRUE (probably). This isn't something that should have been a sticking point for CU.
4. Tom Brady's company (TB12) made it happen with a big NIL deal for Shedeur Sanders. MAYBE. This one would scare me, if true.
5. New USF stadium will be built by 2024. FALSE. That timeline is impossible. They'll be playing in the Bucs stadium, not on campus, if that matters - not sure why it really would.
There's enough b.s. with this to make me skeptical. Then there's the USF associate AD going on Twitter to refute the reporter for the TB Lightning who wrote it. That reporter has not backed off, even doubled down. The 247 USF publisher has confirmed the contract offer, hasn't denied, but doesn't seem to know anything. Some moving of the goalposts with the reports, too, from an announcement tonight to now Saturday.

I do love the mental gymnastics of the USF fans when pointed out that he had team practice in Jackson at 06:00
Psssst .... nobody is touring team facilities at 05:30 in the morning no matter who they are

And you can be pretty sure that if Deion had agreed to USF, he would've told CU or somebody close to CU and it would leak out to Adam/Howell
Are we sure? I would be scared to leak that news. Might have to move to Nebraska after the leak.
I’m sure this guy getting tons of interactions and people to tune into his radio show has absolutely nothing to do with him saying it’s “90%” done, leaving him room to come up with an excuse when it doesn’t happen.
I think the more important question is Why is University of *SOUTH* Florida in Tampa??
And it’s only Tuesday.
100% agree. This was clickbait to drive people to his show. The 90% deal gives him a decent out: “Deion liked that Colorado was in a P5.” “Deion liked that Colorado had an on campus stadium.” “Colorado has more history, they’re over a century old. USF is still a new program.”
He’s very gify
Because “central” Florida is an hour north east. Duh.
But the relationship between South, Central, and Eastern Florida (universities) vs Western and North Florida is pretty disturbing.

It’s well known that Deion often uses a body double to do things like attend weddings, contest traffic tickets, accept awards, and tour athletic facilities. He also has a twin brother named Darryl that has been known to fill in for him from time to time.
youre killing it with these btw
