And so it begins...(tracking Coach Prime decommits/transfers)

Probably got processed:

A move that comes in the midst of Coach Prime and his staff pulling in top-tier players out of the transfer portal.

Which top-tier players are being referenced here? Their portal commit average ranking is pretty pedestrian.

It’s CU beat writers who inflate everything and they are probably going on their HS rankings and not digging into the stats and wondering why they are transferring.

Does Colorado offer a dyslexia program?

National letter of intent

My bad. With it being a prime deal I figured he was trying to say NIL.

Colorado top portal recruits per On3:

61. Tyler Johnson, OL
74. Preston Hodge, CB
84. Justin Mayers, OL

Their 15 other portal commits all reside outside the top 100 in the On3 portal rankings.

Damn hopefully he goes to FSU

Colorado has landed yet another commitment, this time securing Chidozie Nwankwo the former University of Houston nose tackle. Nwankwo the 5’11 295 lb defensive lineman was with the Houston Cougars for four years and was a key competent to their run defense. Last season, Nwankwo registered 25 tackles and 1 sack and will provide immediate help to Colorado’s defensive line.

Chidozie Nwankwo was a 3-Star recruit coming out of high school, ranked as the No. 80 Defensive Tackle in the nation. Nwankwo had 19 offers from schools nationwide but decided on Houston as he is originally from Richmond, Texas.

Last season, the Buffaloes struggled immensely defending the run game from opposing teams, as teams averaged 176.4 yards per game on the ground. Colorado hopes this will improve next season with Nwankwo as the nose tackle, being at the forefront of stopping the run.
Nwankwo now becomes the 15th player to commit to Deion Sanders and Colorado since the portal opened a short time ago. According to 247 Sports, the Buffaloes now have the No. 2 ranked transfer class in the country so far, trailing only Lane Kiffin and Ole Miss who hold the number one spot.

Colorado will continue to hammer the portal, looking to add more linebackers and defensive linemen in hopes of dominating the Big-12 Conference in 2024 and beyond.

25 tackles and 1 sack on a 4-8 Big 12 team. That’s a big time addition.

He's a nose tackle. His stats aren't going to be great

Nash had 40 tackles and 4.5 sacks for reference.

Prime is not vetting anyone. He doesn't care about anything other than talent acquisition. In the long run it will be rough.

I predict another 4-8 type of season and then he bails. Once Hunter and Shadildo are gone they will crumble back to 1-11. He has shown zero ability to build any kind of cohesiveness or consistency.

Hopefully we can do our part this year to contribute to the L column.

Yep. His ability to pull in 20 transfer guys is not actually building a program. He will leave them with nothing.

I'm the Deion "devil's advocate" on here. I try not to be a hater (which is extremely difficult).

But I think Deion has realized how much work this would be at Colorado. I think he wants to put together a 7-5 season this year...get Shadildo to NFL as 1st rounder....and then resign for medical reasons. He can then make $5m/yr as a TV analyst and more through TV ads/sponsorships.

The idea that Deion wants to fight his way up the ladder - advance to A&M next and then fight his way to the Alabama job, etc.....it's looking more and more insane. Deion will be 57 at start of this CFB season. He's got NO desire to grind his way to the top for the next 10 yrs.

I know everyone is saying this, but I believe it now. Deion takes a medical retirement after 2024 season and then never coaches again. I'm ready to throw my prediction out there.
