You're just bitter because Colorado will be relevant again before your program. We had to rebuild entire rosters in the 80s too, but you wouldn't remember real football.

Deion's got more fight than our 2003 defense had, and they won a national title

This reminds me of when we had a coach try to rebuild oovernight in the 80s. It never works. But I can't stand these mercenary teams, it's bad for the sport.

He’s building something we can’t see yet

Coach Prime's portal haul is a masterclass in roster construction, not desperation

He'll win more than your coach

This is some serious hater energy coming from a rival fan who clearly can't handle what Coach Prime is building. We saw firsthand how he transformed that program overnight last season, and calling a 43-man portal class desperation is just ignorant. It's a complete roster overhaul because the situation he inherited was bare bones, and he's bringing in his type of players to run his system. You don't fire a coach who generates that much national buzz and has recruits lining up just because the first full year had growing pains. The schedule was brutal, and they were competitive in a lot of those games with a team still learning to play together. Saying he's done is just wishful thinking from someone scared of Colorado getting relevant again. That desperation move is going to pay off when they start winning more games this fall, and all these critics will suddenly get real quiet. He's changing the culture in Boulder, and sometimes you have to tear it all down to build it back up the right way. We understand that better than anyone, running our own unique system. They need to give him time with his own guys before making any rash judgments.

He's building a monster

Prime's cooking, just wait

That take completely ignores the reality of Colorado's roster situation last season. They had to replace 86% of their production, the highest turnover in FBS. The portal class addressed critical needs, particularly on both lines where they ranked 120th in sacks allowed. Deion's 2023 recruiting class still finished top 25 nationally, showing he can attract high school talent too. This rebuild was always a two-year process, and judging it after one season is premature. The Big 12 is wide open, and with an improved roster, they could surprise people. Firing him now would be a massive overreaction and set the program back another five years.

Deion is building something real in Boulder and it scares the rest of the Pac-12. Using the portal to completely flip a roster is the new reality, not desperation. We saw what Shedeur and Travis Hunter did last year, and now he's got more talent coming in. Calling for his job now is just wishful thinking from rivals who are nervous. He'll have Colorado competitive faster than anyone expects.

That's rich coming from a rival fan whose team would kill for our national attention. Deion is building something special and our portal class is loaded with immediate impact players. You're just scared of what's coming.

Colorado's 43 transfers is a massive overhaul, but their 2023 defense allowed 34.8 points per game, so a complete rebuild was the only plan.

You should worry about your own program after that embarrassing loss to Arizona

You're just scared because he's building something real. That portal class is a masterclass in roster turnover, something your coach is too scared to do. Deion has Colorado relevant for the first time in decades, and you want him gone because it's working. He's not done, he's just geting started, and the whole country is watching Boulder now. Your take reeks of jealousy from a program stuck in neutral.

Worry about your own program after that embarrassing bowl loss. Deion is bringing in talent and making Colorado relevant again, something Oklahoma hasn't been since they left the Big 12. We know all about rebuilds, and you don't turn a 1-11 team around overnight. Maybe focus on your own defense before you start calling for other coaches' jobs.

He's building a contender while your coach is stuck in the past

That take ignores Colorado's 4.8 yards per play improvement from last season. Deion's portal class is rebuilding a roster that needed immediate talent, not desperation. Rival fans just don't want to see that process accelerate.

Deion is building something real out there and you're just mad he's stealing the spotlight. That portal class is how you rebuild a roster overnight, something we know all about. Calling it desperation just shows you're scared of what he's putting together. He's got that program relevant for the first time in decades, and the recruits are buying in. You don't fire a coach who has that kind of momentum and cultural impact. Let him cook for aonther season with his own guys before you write those obituaries. We should all be worried if he gets that defense figured out.

Prime's just getting STARTED tbh

His portal class ranked 2nd nationally, and they've already improved their yards per play by a full yard over last season

He's got a top-5 offense in yards per play

You Sooners fans are just salty because you know Coach Prime's recruting would run circles around Brent Venables in the SEC. Worry about your own portal losses before you talk about Colorado.

He's building a cntender while your program is stuck in the past

Desperate? That's called a rebuild. He's flipping an entire roster in one offseason. You're just scared of what he's building. Colorado will be a problem sooner than you think.

Deion's building a monster. Jealousy is real.

that's a bold prediction, but the data from last season suggests a complete rebuild was necessary. colorado finished 126th in total defense, giving up over 450 yards per game no cap. you can't win in the big 12 with those numbers, no matter who your qb is. bringing in that many portal players is a direct response to a roster that lacked power five depth across the board. it's a high-risk strategy, but calling it pure desperation ignores how bare the cupboard was. his seat is undoubtedly warm, but firing a coach one year into a conference move creates more instability. let's see if the new pieces, especially on the lines, can improve their 3.1 yards per carry allowed. if they start 1-5 again, then the conversation changes entirely. for now, it's a prove-it year with a roster he finally shaped.

deion's...

He's building a championship roster while your coach is still recruiting from the high school JV squad

Coach Deion reminds me of Jimmy Johnson's early days at Miami, building something special with bold moves

colorado's 43 transfers actually improved their talent composite ranking 15 spots, which shows a clear plan not desperation

He'll be gone before we even play them

That take completely misses what's actually happening in Boulder. Colorado's 43-player portal class wasn't desperation, it was a necessary and aggressive roster overhaul. The Buffaloes inherited one of the worst P5 rosters in modern history, with a talent composite ranking in the 60s. You don't fix that with one recruiting year, you use the portal to build a competitive floor immediately. Their 4-8 record last year was a five-win improvement from the year before, and they were competitive in most losses. Deion Sanders has already doubled the program's national relevance and revenue in one season. Firing a coach after two years, especially one who is actively reshaping the entire roster's talent level, is how you guarantee a return to irrelevance. The data shows progress, not regression. Their offensive production jumped significantly in Year 1, and now they're addressing a porous offensive line and defensive front through the portal. This is a long-term build, and judging it on a two-year timeline is shortsighted. Rival fans hoping for his failure are just nervous about what a competent Colorado program means for the conference landscape.

He's building a winner in Boulder while we're reloading for another run at the SEC, sounds like someone's scared of the competition

He's a showman but he's got that program buzzing for the first time in decades. We'll see how it translates on the field, but calling for his job before the season even starts is just hater talk.

He's building a winner

You're just bitter because your program never had the guts to make a splash like this. We used to build through freshmen back in the 80s, but the game has changed. Deion is doing what he must to compete, just like any good coach would. He's bringing excitement and talent to a place that had none, something your school could never understand. Calling for his job after one season? That's the kind of short-sighted thniking that keeps mediocre programs mediocre. Let the man build his team his way.

Desperate? That's what they said about Barry Sanders when he was a freshman. Deion's building somehing new, and rival fans just can't stand the spotlight leaving their stale programs.

That's a wild overreaction. Colorado's 43 portal additions addressed clear roster gaps, and their 2023 recruiting class still ranked 45th nationally. Deion's team improved their scoring offense by 10 points per game last season. The rebuild was always a multi-year project in Boulder, and judging it after one full year ignores the complete lack of depth he inherited. Rival fans want him gone because he brings immediate relevance and recruiting buzz they can't match. His track record at Jackson State shows he can build a winner, it just requires more than 15 games.
