The impact of Deion on CFB is still to be fully realized but so far I would imagine there are a lot of ADs noticing. Wondering how they get some of that magic to moribund programs, can they change expectations with the portal and NIL to demand faster turnarounds, how to get media attention. Wishing they were setting up boxes for celebrity attendees.

Why give a new coach a five year contract when you can use the portal to fix the problems fast? Let’s see what you can do in three. Can you drive enough media hype to get Game Day here? Can you get the Rock, and Taylor Swift, and JayZ here for a game?

There will be a ton of schools firing coaches at the end of the season. How will Deion affect the decision process on new hires?

I'll believe that when I see it. Ive been hearing that bullshit (along with lowball salaries and big bonuses for performance) for years now, and the AD's keep spreading their cheeks wider when it comes to hiring head coaches. The reality is that there are far more ADs with hopes of winning programs than there are coaches out there that can pull it off. Mel fucking Tugger got a 10 year $100 million dollar contract for fucks sake. Good luck getting your first pick when you are handing out a 3 year contract when everyone else is at 5+. Its not like Deion is working on a 3 year deal.

My daughter's high school volleyball coach literally brings kids into the room and tells them she doesn't see a place for them on the roster going forward. Pretty common practice being honest with a kid. One of our defensive specialists was told that, fought for a spot anyway, and now is a crucial player in their rotation.

Anyone got a one page tear sheet of the match-up between CU and ASU from an advanced statistics point of view? I assume CU is going to beat the shit out of them, but that is largely because the ASU/Fresno State game was such an outright atrocity.

Colorado just kicked a field goal to go up 27-24 with 0:12 left in the 4th quarter.

A win is a win. I'll take it. It was ugly as hell, though.

They been in do fights pretty much all season. Builds character.

I laugh my ass off at his "cut the bull junk and hand me one of them wings" commercial.

I have seen that commercial tons of times, but I still don’t understand all of the words spoken in that thing. 
 

PS- A must-win game tonight for Sanders & CO if they want to become bowl eligible with Stanford coming to town. 

A win takes them to 5-2 with Arizona the only possible win left on the schedule.

Nobody should go to KFC if there are options like Popeye's, Bojangles, Church's, Jollibee, etc.

Hell, my local grocery store makes better fried chicken than KFC and I live in Idaho.

Agreed. Man! I do miss Bojangles when I used to live on the east coast. Cajun biscuit for the win sir!!

They already do realize that. Why do you think that they are paying the Sanders family to sell their birds. 

Have you seen those ugly-as-shit sunglasses 🕶️ that sold out in seconds due to Deion & fam wearing that shit?

There are 3 Bojangles in the DFW area. I still haven't stopped by one. Used to be the closest one was in Birmingham. I looked.

Never heard of them. Will research Bojangles.

I was at a family member's house in a small town outside Houston and they brought in fried chicken from Brookshire Brothers. I was ready to turn my nose up at grocery store fried chicken. Holy shit... it was good. Stupid good.

This is what made me want to find one.

Agreed that the corporate guys know that he isn't buying KFC, but that's why they are paying him to sell it.

Henderson's is a go to. But, they aren't going to be advertising anywhere any time soon. Yum foods has money to burn. "Do you think you can sell some chicken Deion?"

"My name is Sanders isn't it?"

Their cash spends too.

Of all the fast food fried chicken I've had, my favorite has been Southern Classic Chicken, a smallish chain out of Louisiana.

I was in Longview for a job a couple of years ago and one of the locals turned me on to them. Sunbird was in one of its relocating phases, so in lieu of being able to try their 'cue, I found myself eating a Jumbo Combo at Southern Classic nearly every day.

Would be interested to know how @dcbc, @NoName, @DallasSooner and others rank it compared to the more established chains. For my money (but not so much for my heart), it was fan-fucking-tastic.

The greatest single season turnaround / coaching performance in modern college football 

 

there’s not enough crow in the world for the haters on this thread

Let's not forget about Tulane.  They go from 2-10 in 2021 to 12-2 in 2022.  To top it off they beat USC in the Cotton Bowl.

There's always hope.

Where was it at in Longview? I might have to go by there.
