I didn't realizes how disciplined he is. Apparently has never drank alcohol or done any drugs.
Told the UC players, "I know what the vibe is here. What's been allowed legally. It's made the program lazy. Embarrassing for 20 years. Next meeting when I'm back….no hats. No earrings. No headphones around your neck."
Deion Sanders telling the CU Buffs football team that he’s bringing his own luggage, and that they better hit the portal. This is crazy 🤯 pic.twitter.com/004LUKiTr2

He is serious.

the bolded part I agree with 100%.EclipseAg said:
I know it's no longer fashionable to believe, but the actual words you use when communicating still matter.
If you want to challenge a team of individuals, you tell them that every position is open and they will have to fight for playing time, but that the slate is clean and everyone will get the same opportunity to prove themselves.
You don't tell them you are bringing "luggage" that's better than they are, and they should hit the portal. That's not a challenge; that's insinuating that they won't get a fair shake.
You don't say "here's your new quarterback" when introducing your son and then throw in as an afterthought, "He'll have to earn it." Does anyone really believe that? You've already tipped your hand.
The media will give Sanders a pass every time but I think his act is going to wear thin quickly.
Except that we both interpret it differently, and all over Twitter there are people interpreting it differently and arguing. So his message really wasn't very clear -- some think he was awesome and inspiring, and others think he was showing a lack of respect to the team he's supposed to be leading.AustinCountyAg said:the bolded part I agree with 100%.EclipseAg said:

The part about brining the "luggage" I dont fully agree. I think he was making the point to tell the current players they better be ready to compete, because their current starting roles aren't protected. The "luggage" he's bringing are trasnfers and recruits that will be there to compete for jobs. Not necessarily a slap in the face to the current players on the team, but more a warning that if they aren't ready to work, and compete then GTFO.
They went 1-11 this year and haven't had more than five wins in a season since 2016. I don't think he's too worried about who he runs off.EclipseAg said:Except that we both interpret it differently, and all over Twitter there are people interpreting it differently and arguing.

He's made a career of being a showman, but there's a reason most coaches -- of all races and backgrounds -- are more reserved and thoughtful about how they communicate.

when prime prep was dissolved the students were so far behind that several of the school who absorbed the students were also closed by state accountability because of the dragging test scores of the transfers.BBRex said:
That also happens in public schools. And I don't think he shoulders the blame for academics there. Even as co-founder, I don't think they put him in charge of curriculum.
A source at Colorado tells me over 200 recruits and portal transfers have reached out in the last 12 hours.

Some of them are 4 and 5-star caliber players. Deion Sanders has a chance to make some noise before Signing Day.
NIL money is also rolling in, I'm told.
Of course he isn't.BBRex said:They went 1-11 this year and haven't had more than five wins in a season since 2016.
