Prime Time!!! - Deion Sanders Hired as Colorado Head Coach

Decked said:
Remains to be seen if he is actually a good coach. The SWAC would get beat up by top d2 teams. He had so much more talent than the rest of their conference. And they won’t play anyone outside of them.

That's his formula for success is to have more talent then the rest of the teams they will play. Anyone think that Colorado gets any players from Jackson State to follow Deion????

I think Prime will do well in the short-term in recruiting and transfers but their lack of NIL will hurt them. Yeah, CU has a lot of alumni and I’m sure a lot with $, but CU typically struggles with getting $ donated to them.

You don't think people won't start putting money up for nil deals at Colorado?? I do, I just think that Coloradan's haven't truly been behind a coach for a long time. Deion changes that perspective.

 
“Fickell isn’t leaving Cinci for any job other than OSU”
 

“Oh Deion isn’t going to take a cold weather job”

both turned out to be not true.

I do think Rhule is a better coach, but i think Deion and Fickell would of been better hires.  I hope to god this doesnt bit us in the a$$.

Nothing is guaranteed, but of the 3, only Rhule has shown to a "program builder" at the Power 5 level (also did it at Temple).  Deion is a big name, but I think he will struggle in the long-term at CU.  He may improve recruiting at CU, but he won't have the better talent like he often does at Jackson State.  Fickell is very good, but I think he's better at keeping a program going rather than re-building one.

For having a reputation as a "program builder" Baylor is Rhule's only P5 example and none of his stops have long term attached to them.
