Colorado going all out at practice

[HerbRedman]

Seydou Traore. He was one of their most impressive portal pickups and projected as a top 3 round NFL draft pick. The fact that he’s bolting is pretty eye opening.

It's gotta be NIL related? The CU 247 guy was on 1620 this past week and he admitted that their NIL was not really that great yet. He was thinking it will get better after a full year of Prime.

I WANT to believe that these guys are smart and just going "this whole thing is a shit show, I gotta get out of here".... but humans will suffer through amazing shit situations for the right $$$.

My guess is that the players are fine with the entire situation at CU except the money. Again, I hope it's more than that (since I'm a CU hater), but I'm not sure. As wacky as Deion is, his assistants are who these players work with day in and day out, and those assistants are very good and very competent.

He didn't completely clean house. I read there were still 12 guys left who were on last year's roster.

It's pretty amazing he put his son in this situation, but to Herb's point, maybe it's worth the money to Sheduer

CU had another guy who recently transferred in decide to get the fuck out of dodge and transfer out today. He played TE for Arkansas State and still wasn't impressed with Boulder..... LoL.

That makes 10 4 month students at the prestigious Colorado University.

Everything is fine.

I was told that Colorado had a giant list of "Dawgs" that would have announced their transfer intentions by now.....Deion said so.....but....

Pretty sure he's just been taking the scraps of Florida State's attrition hasn't he?

I absolutely LOVED that Mcafee asked him after he said that people would see why they have all this room clearing up when they see the list, "when is that list coming out?"

.....uhhh....soon brother.

Yeah - there's no list haha.

Yes. He has gotten some scraps and some redshirt freshmen with tons of eligibility, but here's the thing, he needs ready made starters. And even if he was able to find a few (he won't find 22) he'll have absolutely zero depth behind them with any sort of experience or continuity. He has totally blown this and I'm just waiting for CU fans to admit it. An OL redshirt freshman with 3 career snaps against a small school in garbage time is the type of guy you bring in for 2 seasons from now, not September.

This is going to be 50% tragedy and 50% comedy. And add that he is throwing his son out there with these misfits. I'm willing to bet any amount of money that he pulls his kid out and claims some sort of injury early in the season to maintain his eligibility instead of wasting a year on what is sure to be a circus. He'll throw the backup QB under the bus quick. Just watch.

If they don’t beat CSU in week 3, I’m not sure they win a game all year

If Nebraska doesn't beat them in week 2 you'll likely get a new post from Bootleg11 but it will actually be Mrs. Bootleg11 coming to update you on my status in the Sedgwick County jail and/or local hospital.

One other thing on this, I said from moment Deion signed w CU that he should have held out for a G5 program in FL or GA. This would have worked out way better at S Florida or UCF.

This was always going to be hard to do this strategy at Colorado. It's just too far away for three southern kids. Colorado in its heyday was bringing in California kids from south central and Compton, etc. Prime is like 98% hitting FL and GA and the rest of the south. Boulder is a culture shock for those kids.

20 scholarships down and I would guess most of their walk-ons are gone too they might not have 85 players on their whole team.

Off topic but there's only 34 people that currently have you on ignore. Pump those number up Duck! 😆

Thanks for the reminder HuskerGarrett. I keep saying to myself "why am I reading this shit? It isn't even funny or original." Ignored.

So did I miss any big moves for prime?

This thread is incredible.

This is a @ShortSideOption situation. He said it best. This is Tommie Frazier at Doane on steroids. He rightfully knew the roster was shit, but burnt it to the ground. They might not win a game next year. Calling my shot.

They’re bringing in about 2 a day until scholarships are full. They want guys to have the spotlight on their announcements so arent gonna have all 20 announce at once. People are ignorant if they think they wont fill 85
