    They are 20 points dogs right now to Oregon. That’s a stiff line to put up when you’ve got a guy like Sanders at QB. Hunter is out, but 20 points is a lot to cover against a 3-0 team that has a ton of momentum.

    Do you think he’s the only coach many gator fans can’t stand. Tennessee’s fat ass caught hell yesterday and today and is giving Dion a run for his money. You’re confused.

    I wouldn’t lay 20 on tgat, no way. Georgia demolished Oregon last year, they aren’t some juggernaut.

    His son is legit and Colorado seems fairly talented . It’s a throw together team though so they are probably going to make more mistakes than Oregon.

    They went into it against a crap team. Don’t get too excited.

    Yeah but the hate for the Tennessee coach is warranted since his actions directly impacted the UF football team. What has Deion done to incur the wrath of Gator fans, outside of playing for FSU almost 40 years ago?

    Still don’t like him. He runs so many people the wrong way. His kids on the other hand were quite pleasant in their interview last night. I was surprised.

    Running though brick walls doesn’t win football games.

    For real get your point, but this brand of recruiting will work to get a perennial loser to win against a perennial loser but we will see what happens even against the Oregans of the world and then I’ll start believing he can coach. Right now color me interested but not on the bandwagon.

    Does everyone not remember he almost lost to a team that he had like a 3 TD down spread he was laying points and why I am supposed to be so impressed by this? I am talking about CSU last week! I’ll bet Toofers would have beaten him if he was still at CSU.

    Do I enjoy the show? A little but also the way I liked when he put a pen in his sock pre-TD. It also made me cringe too. Yeah, nothing has been proven yet and he shouldn’t be ranked where he is.

    Yes I’m sure there were tons of fans of other teams who hated Urban Meyer when he was at UF and then of course there are the silly UF fans who hated Urban Meyer after he left. I really don’t care if my coach is liked or disliked. I want to win. Napier may prove to be the guy, but if he throws up a clunker at Kentucky, I’m not giving him a pass just because he doesn’t wear sunglasses and a cowboy hat.

    You can like Dion all you want and go jump on his train. I don’t like him at all and I’m not going to start anytime soon.

    I’m not a big Deion fan, but I do commend him on being an active participant in the lives of his kids. I also think he looks out for the players on his team and is genuine in most aspects of that.

    That said, it is a bit tiring hearing how he turned around a 1-11 team. I don’t see it that way because there’s not many of those players from that 1-11 team and probably fewer that are even a major contributor. His model is NIL free agency which should get him at least in the middle tier quickly but the main question is can he build a championship team around that philosophy. In his own words, he looks to transfer portal and will only take 4-5 high school kids so I suppose he’s not willing to invest time to coach up younger kids.

    Welp Colorado will be missing their best playmaker on offense and defense Travis Hunter for 3-6 weeks with a lacerated liver, thanks to the cheap shot by the Colorado State thug. That loudmouth CSU coach won’t receive any critique for teaching such dirty play, but I can imagine the backlash against Deion if one of his players did this.

    Oregon scores 58 points a game. CU won’t be able to slow Oregon’s offense down, but Sanders has the potential to keep it close with his arm and acumen.

    This is such a laughable statement to make. If Prime doesn’t get credit for the turnaround, then we can never say a coach turned a program around ever again, lol.

    I think they scored 3 against the puppies last year. It’s hard to compare legit teams vs trash so who knows.

    What’s laughably is his fans call him prime.

    Good. Maybe CU pulls off the upset and we’ll hear even more about Prime Time.

    You obviously have nothing better to do but sit around and sulk about Deion.
