He called everyone baby, male and female. He uses the term baby all the time. It’s not a reference to anyone in particular

Sorry, you could read my brother's name on the first image I posted. Scribble was too opaque. He's acting like a child watching others open their Christmas gifts, but he doesn't deserve death threats. I think.

I read Prime's words to the team to be along the lines of... if you are scared off by my words today then I don't need you nor can I trust you to be on the field vs Nebraska on Sept. 9. That might be scarier for you than my words.

They probably wouldn't have been serious ones.
Yeah, having a coach walk into a meeting with players and tell them “we’ve already got a few positions taken care of”…I think that was hardest part for me.
Your brother seems opaque.
When taking to—literally—the worst team in CFA… that may not be friendly, but it’s just honest. And justified.
They were warned. We were all warned.
Right! We didn’t bring him here to keep our present team intact!
He's actually a very good guy. Has been wildly successful (if you measure success in dollars - I know that's not right), but insecure (and I don't know why). So his "jokes" often put people down. He could be insufferable when drinking, but hasn't had a drink in 10 years.
Same I’d rep that **** fosho"I'm bringing my own luggage, and it's Louis"
Imma need that on a Prime T-Shirt ASAP
And so it begins…

Homebrew & Prime Time = HEAVEN
He's going to bring respect back to the black and gold. This is going to be epic!
I loved the come to Jesus meeting he had with the team something that's been a long time coming!
Go Buffs!

Truth hurts sometimes. But they have to be aware that after going 1-11 with the lowest scoring offense and the worst run defense in the nation that there's no such thing as job security. If they didn't realize that, then I have to say I'm blown away by how low the expectations were and how much they were coddled.
If those words hurt you and make you feel bad, you’re not cut out for football and should hang it up tbh
…In a memo from RG to the chair of the Women’s Study program.
Mostly I wanted to make an opaque joke.

He called tons of people baby, men and women. Why did you not mention the men?
Or calculus professors. And it was true.
Dear Women's Study Program Chair,
Are you insisting that an American representing a marginalized identity must comply with the linguistic rules that have historically been used to undermine the opportunities for his race - rather than allowing him to speak authentically in a way that most truly represents his lived experience?
I eagerly anticipate your response.
Change is hard.
this is going to be fascinating as it is all going to be on tape. those that played sports at pretty much any level beyond grade school know what team meetings and locker rooms are like.
when i watched the video of the visit to the facilities last night and the new LB couch walked into the lb meeting room and screamed LISTEN UP MOTHER ****ERS it felt nostalgic.
we're going to win.

Yep!
The team meeting was interesting, seemed like a combination of shock, fear, and resignation from many of the players.
How long has it been since they have had a coach standing in front of that room who talks about accountability and standards and meanis it?
A lot of those guys were looking at the end of their P5 football careers. That team was so beat down over and over that they accepted it. They expect to lose.
Others in their know in their hearts that a bunch of new guys are coming in and likely will be taking their spots, a big group with some overlap to the last group knows that they aren't dedicated enough to football to meet Coach Prime's standards and they haven't in their time at CU learned how to elevate their performance to meet those standards.
I watched the Jackson State game yesterday (and one earlier in the season.) They may be FCS but there are a lot of players on that team who are better players than CU put on the field.
Some of them are better players because they are more talented, the high end recruits who he brought in. A lot more of them are better players because they are better at learning the game, preparing for the game, and getting the best out of their abilities they have.
Prime had amazing natural talent when he played, few could match him. What was really the difference though was his intense desire to be the very best and his willingness to do what it took to be that, be it in football or baseball. His coaching looks to be the same, intense desire to be the best, unwillingness to compromise on being the best, and a drive to do what it takes to make that happen.
