  1. Given that the money has to come from people who have to be convinced to part with it... no. They'll open the wallet to overspend on an elite freakshow LB like Hill, but a disheartened Ag moneyman isn't going to be feel a rush by dramatically overpaying for some 3-star who will otherwise end up at Arizona State or something.
  2. And we'll do it to 'em at home next year, the fuckers.
  3. The gap between 247 #1 Bama and #3 Texas is stark. They have 27 non/PK signees. We have 23. Recruits with <0.90 247 rating Bama: 1 (of 27) Texas: 9 (of 23) Recruits in their state's Top 10 Bama: 24 (of 27) Texas: 11 (of 23) Avg Recruit score #1 Bama 94.9 #3 Texas 92.5 (-2.4) #17 FSU 90.1 (-2.4) Insanity. Also, the A&M 2022 class (BEST CLASS EVER!!) average recruit score? 94.9.
  4. Sharpe asks directly about whether or not Sanders had a plan to climb the coaching ladder. (1:23:15 in or so)
  5. I don't see him as more of a con-man than any of the more boring, less interesting, less flashy dudes out there. I think people overthink this because he actually has a personality, which is something basically no other NCAA coaches have other than Kiffin and Leach (RIP). It's a hard sell to tell me Sanders is more of a con-man than Jimbo Fisher or Tom Herman or any number of others we could name easily. About 34 minutes in, Sharpe says he's been asking Deion why he is so patient coaching little kids for the last 20 years. Sharpe brings up Sanders bringing a ton of little kids to his own HOF induction in 2011. That's wild. If it's the guy's long-con plan to flip an HBCU gig for Colorado, I don't know where bussing little kids to games for a decade+ ahead of time factors in. The path for a guy like Sanders to coaching $$ is already pretty well-established. He could've had any number of big 6A jobs or Jackson-style jobs at the same time he was coaching little kids and this whole cycle would've started a decade earlier. 6A Texas HS job -> small NCAA -> mid NCAA -> big NCAA/NFL. Simple. This dude's path is way more complicated and I think the very clear throughline is his kids. He starts coaching b/c of his boys and he wanted to be directly involved the whole way through. If ANYTHING, if I'm a CU fan I'm worried that Shadeur goes off this year, gets drafted, and Deion tries to get his way into the NFL to stay on the sidelines with Shadeur. Or I'm wondering where his fire goes once both his sons are out of NCAA ball entirely.
  6. Recruits who don't go to A&M are bad. Stupid sip
  7. 1.5 hours of Deion and Shannon Sharpe. Starting at 34:08 you see that Deion is passionate about this for sincere reasons. He loves the kids. I've already been a believer, but I don't know how someone looks at this and doesn't believe that his man is 100% genuine. Prime Prep whatever, this dude was not bussing little kids to games for some scam. This isn't a con. For all his faults and all his blind spots and failures, this dude is genuinely excited by the idea of helping raise young men. It matters to him. "You see how I get excited when talkin' about my babies?" Legitimately holding back emotion saying that some of those same kids (who he brought to his 2011 HOF induction) are getting ready to come play college ball. Prime Prep talk starts ~37 minutes. Very short section.
  8. He shoots webs out of his left wrist like spiderman. no runner can get away from him Stupid obsessed sips
  9. I appreciate your efforts. A little re-coloring will help. Here are some helpful codes.
  10. "End of an era" Who? What era? Era of what? What?
  11. Sanders being there to introduce the new head coach. I'm sure there are hard feelings in different places, but this is awesome to see. Got a little dusty when the new HC, who played for JSU, starts talking to his team as the newly-announced HC.
  12. You guys talk shit about bread, but I eat it all the time and it is delicious.
  13. Yeah, this just wasn't supposed to be happening right now. We were supposed to get a few more years of Leach being a goof in the SEC then him retired being a goof on TV. Shattered for his family, just shattered. I don't know if he had grandkids or not, but that's a weird grandpa stolen away. damnit, this fucking sucks
  14. I'm sure I'm not alone in being someone who is A-OK with jettisoning literally any aspect of the basketball program that makes us look bad because ... it's just basketball who cares? (It's true, and I'm tired of pretending it's not.)
  15. This is some fucking bullshit.
  16. I hope not. There is zero reason to let this simmer. Fire him for cause as soon as legally possible. Remove every trace of him from campus this afternoon after lunch. Start talking to the agents of coaching prospects and hitting up boosters for NIL inducements to keep current recruits. Don't even think about this guy. He's less than a ghost.
  17. Exactly. Cut ties with this dude ASAP and pretend he never existed. Purge the websites.
  18. It blows my mind that Bernie still bothers with this horseshit. He's too good for us.
  19. Fuckin' spoiler that shit, dude
  20. So it's just a "I came up in this and you didn't!" thing, not the prince thing. I am DEFINITELY not SWAC.
  21. Would be interesting for you to explain what you mean by this. I think the "SWAC people" who are angry with Deion about this is relatively low. It's not that much different than people getting mad at Local HS Star for going out-of-state instead of to Hometown U. There's really not any need to do the thing you're obviously doing here.
