I saw multiple interviews with folks up from Atlanta who were Sanders fans
The guy I mentioned above was also a Falcons fan
I saw multiple interviews with folks up from Atlanta who were Sanders fans
There was an article on Axios (can't find it) that said that CU was "Black America's Team". I love that. I met several people on Saturday who weren't historically CU fans that traveled for Prime.I saw multiple interviews with folks up from Atlanta who were Sanders fans
Me too. Met 4 guys at the Harvest House who came in from Mississippi. One of them was a JSU grad and seemed a little bitter because he said there is an 80% chance Prime leaves this year. I said no way and he said Prime is about helping the black athlete and you can’t do that in Boulder. Nice guys but they really questioned how Boulder can attract black athletes long term.There was an article on Axios (can't find it) that said that CU was "Black America's Team". I love that.

A border collie woulda for sure!I was just walking around my bedroom, when I spontaneously started imploring my Great Pyrenees mix to "stand up and get crunk!" She did not, however, want to get crunk.

Our border collie might have in her younger years; at this point, she is about the same age as Peggy Coppom in dog years. Still happy, though.A border collie woulda for sure!
Fake news. We beat a ranked team.
Before the season started I had a guy give me a "Go Buffs" in Duluth. He went on to tell me how his family wanted him to go to a HBCU but he decided not to. He played linebacker in college and always looked up to Deion Sanders as a role model. Since graduating he took coaches words to heart and has lived his life according to Prime's code. Now he is a new Buff fan and looking forward to Coach Prime succeeding at CU.There was an article on Axios (can't find it) that said that CU was "Black America's Team". I love that.

If I am not mistaken, Prime was clear to the administration that CU needs to diversify. For his part, he will hold athletes to a high academic standard. They are to do what needs to be done to succeed as a student. This will keep profs happy. Honestly, it is something that many profs hate about the predecessors, who treated academics as a nuisance.Me too. Met 4 guys at the Harvest House who came in from Mississippi.

How much does SuperD charge by the hour? Asking for a friend.Had a really great call with @SuperD last night.
Been thinking about this a lot. Prime upsets people because he does not care what anyone outside of his innermost portion of his inner circle thinks about him. Even then, his opinion prevails.
He is unbothered by your criticism, your jealousy, your racism, your insecurity, or anything else about you. This really pisses people off because they expect you to care about how they feel about you. That’s not Prime.
What it also does is further upset people because it exposes how fundamentally insecure they are. People don’t want that vulnerability unmasked to the surrounding world, so they increase their rage. They try to police the secure, unbothered person by criticizing their style, intellect, competence, self-discipline, level of focus, norm avoidance, or even worse, the innermost portion of the secure person’s inner circle.
These insecure assholes can’t help themselves because this is the socially accepted way of managing other insecure people. Their tricks normally work. Yet, the unbothered person is totally immune to that behavior. It is noise that they easily mute. The only recourse the insecure have is physical violence because their attempted emotional violence is impotent.
Prime is divisive because the person he’s made himself to be is either appeals to others who admire and emulate his confidence. Or, he alienates the people to whom he represents an existential threat to the facade they treat as armor.

I can imagine the profs are happy that Prime wants CU to attract the next Condoleezza Rice instead of the next George Bush. It has to be nice to experience a coach who is supportive not only towards the team, but of the greater mission.
Prime seems to have great things to offer the school, the AD, the community, and a means to open a mainstream program for young scholars.

The flag aide was sending read-ahead materials to our 3-star command HQ. He’s an academy guy. I wasn’t even included on the original email. And no one he emailed went to CU.

Another educated and fabulous woman. I have zero issue with the substitution.FIFY
You have no idea.They need to beef up the English Department at Annapolis.
We sold some old CU stuff and the couple that picked it up were an AA couple in their 50s on the way to the airport to fly up for the CSU game. They had been to the TCU game too. No connection to the university.There was an article on Axios (can't find it) that said that CU was "Black America's Team". I love that.

Yessir!!They need to beef up the English Department at Annapolis.
Not sure I’m what you’re looking for. I’m whiter than Wonder.Love it. We have been historically a very white fan base. Prime could single handedly change that. Would love if we worked more with the Latino demographic as well. Where’s the vamos bufalos?
I’ve been to the spring game and the nub game and both times I had quite a few Latinos sitting in my section. Guys in front of me drove out from grand junction and guys behind me were from Denver.Love it. We have been historically a very white fan base. Prime could single handedly change that. Would love if we worked more with the Latino demographic as well. Where’s the vamos bufalos?
