There’s a thread on tMB where all three CU fans are arguing that this isn’t a big deal because Edwards had been passed up by their three star true freshman and a white walk on at RB. They are saying he wasn’t even going to play RB but instead he’s just a slot receiver (and they don’t care about losing that because they have a freshman four star recruit who they think can do the same thing. One of them is consistently saying that the roster gets better and better after each portal window, because apparently they’re very high on Ohio State’s fourth string RB from last year.

I stopped arguing with them. You can't debate fools.

It would be like someone believing that Wan'Dale transferred to Kentucky because he got passed on the depth chart by Brody Belt.
CU fans should get acquainted with the typical success rate for these 3rd/4th stringers from Ohio St, Alabama and Georgia that hit the portal.
Just going by our experience it's....not good.
At this point if we were to get a former 5* out of the portal who was 4th string at Ohio St, I'd be HIGHLY skeptical and expect the player to be a complete bust. CU is still at the point where they think these guys are gonna be Heisman contenders and 1st round draft picks.

Would have been very refreshing if someone had come out when Frost was here and said the same thing.

Spoke with family who are big CU fans. They’re still all on the Deion bandwagon but I don’t think they follow as closely as we do on this board. I think they’re going to be in for a big letdown when we bolts after his kids go to the NFL.

Dylan is going to throw for at least 600 yards
I actually think Deion (in theory in his mind) wants to come back in 2025 but only in one circumstance. I think he desperately wants the team to squeak out an 8-4 this year so that the media starts another slobber session over him in DEC-APR. The media will then provide another $100m+ in free advertising for him which will allow Deion to attract better transfers in the portal. His plan doesn't work if they go 4-8 or 5-7 again. If he does that they're dead and he'll quit.
Deion's plan was always try to hit a lazy man's inside straight. Try to create enough buzz in yr 1-2 that you, by osmosis, attract top portal players they then win you games which furthers your mystique, which allows you to attract better portal players, and rinse & repeat for 5-7 yrs or until he gets bored & quits. There was a split second in game 2-3 last year where it looked like this plan may work. But I think it's impossible at this point (& not sure that it ever could work).
