May 7, 20232 yr Hard to know whether he lost that toe more because of the gravity of the injury, technical issues with his index/early procedure(s), poor protoplasm, poor cooperation with his postop restrictions, bad luck, or some combination. I have never had a sports surgery end in an amputation (this is where I would knock on wood if I were superstitious). edit I say toe, but that’s only because there’s one toe that matters more than the others.

May 7, 20232 yr Watch.the.tape.No coach worth a shit is going to evaluate players based on tape when he can wait a bit and do it on the field. You seen that man's feet? I doubt Neon can even run 10 yards anymore, much less the length of the field holding onto Ralphie. Yeah, his legs are fucked up these days.
May 7, 20232 yr He’d probably just run down the field and shove Ralphie out of bounds and then spend two hours talking about how great he was at doing it.

On offense, they averaged 17 points a game. (take into account that after the score got out of control, they were playing against 5th string defenses). They have not won a road game since the "Vid Year" of 2020. The stench of losing must permeate every inch of that locker room. They are like that patient which has a combination of pancreatic cancer, stage 4 lung cancer, advanced liver disease, ALS, brain tumor and erectile dysfunction. Clean house. With the exception of that 1 win, it literally cannot get worse.

May 7, 20232 yr I remember watching a Colorado game on ESPN when the star of their team was a super recruit named Darrell Scott and this was at a down time for the team and one good running back can't do much for a program and Scott was out the door at the end of the season.

Colorado finished 143rd in sagarin rankings last season. Thats behind 20+ 1-AA schools. Its reasonable to expect some improvement in Boulder, but handing out "only" 250-1 odds on Colorado is the oddsmakers doing what oddsmakers do. I'm sure they will take every nickel of that action they can get.

I think year -1 the team is competitive across the board and at-or-above .500; maybe 7-5. Deion will probably even get a few words in the conversation for Coach of the Year. The talent upgrade and a coaching staff that doesn't self destruct should get them there. They do play in the Pac-12. I see year-2 being the hard year. If year-1 is 6-6 or 7-5, the expectations for year-2 will be sky-high. The massive talent upgrade he's doing now is a one-time trick. Next year he'll upgrade a few players like everyone else, but the improvement in year-2 has to start from the top. Coaching, schemes, player development. It will be interesting if Deion has that in him. College Football is my #1 sport, and love him or hate him, the sport is better off with some characters like him. We lost the Pirate, but we're getting Prime; he needs to have some success to stay relevant. You’ve been hitting the new sponsor goods hard huh
May 10, 20232 yr I was listening to a guest caller on the local sports talk radio station today. He laid out a really logical case that if you are a coach inheriting a team full of no talent scrubs, the fastest way to start winning is the get rid of all the scrubs as fast as possible. Its ugly as hell, but it does make sense. The transfer players and hot recruits won't gel or come together for the early season games, but they could finish the season on a good note and look better heading into next year.

The transfer players and hot recruits won't gel or come together for the early season games, but they could finish the season on a good note and look better heading into next year. The thing no one espousing the virtues of cutting an entire roster seem to either grasp or are willing to discuss is: who has Deion used to upgrade the roster? Your post implies that they'll be good once they gel. Really? They didn't add a bunch of 5 stars. They have like two, and one of them is a known flake (McLain). They have a handful of 4 stars. Below that level, they have a majority of the replacements who are guys named Bob Jagger. Maybe they were highly ranked in HS, but the vast majority of the additions haven't done shit in college. They're mediocrities and malcontents for the most part. So you've got a collection of true freshman and 40 transfers who, for the most part, have never played together, and they're all learning new systems. If you mean "better" by going 3-9, sure, they'll be "better", maybe. 3 minutes ago, HamsterHookah said: $1000 bet on CU to win the championship pays $2.5mm.

There is no question. I don’t get the criticism of Deion at all. Get rid of them as expediently as possible. It’s the same thing with firing employees you know won’t work out long term. Their top receiver last year, a freshman, just walked, and they wanted to retain him. One of the few talents from last year. When you go scorched earth, babies are thrown out with the bath water. Still, what he’s doing is smart. Now, TCU is absolutely going to assrape them. Edited May 10, 20232 yr by Porterhouse

If everyone on a 1-11 team is a scrub and needs to go, what is the logic in replacing them with a bunch of portal scrubs, also from losing teams, who also were probably pushed out by their previous coach? Everyone knows the best way to win is get better players. Better players don't just leave a good situation.

May 10, 20232 yr If you expect to fail a test badly, copying answers from the guy who usually makes Cs and Ds might help your grade. But be careful; if you are one off on your scantron rows, you’ll find out how much worse than 50 you can score. It looks a lot like Deion is trying to build a foundation of other teams’ C and D material. If he does it consummately (‘sup, Trogdor), he may win a few games this year. There will be no new car smell next year, though, so he better find a way to start building something.
May 10, 20232 yr When I was in high school biology, a buddy of mine managed to write the answers on a pencil. He got off by one on the scantron. It was pretty funny to see his face when he got the grade back.
