As a Colorado alum who attended back in 1990 back when we won a national title all I can say is "pinch me". Decades of sucking and now we got Coach PRIME!? This seems too good to be true. 30 years of pretending to not really care about college football and now we are back!!!
This is the comment I wanted to see! Colorado was fun to watch back in the 90's as a kid in junior high. I love my Ohio State Buckeyes but this is going to be fun to watch! Not missing any of it. Years later Colorado students will be glad they were apart of this. Very exciting!
CU has a long, long way from being competitive. Longer to be back. It’s just reality.
Attended CU 89-93. Love it! I’ve been a season ticket holder since i graduated. It was bleak. But i never gave up. It took a looong time but boom 💥
I am a Michigan Fam and of course Remeber the great Colorodo teams from the 90’s I just thought about it and I don’t know what happened. It’s almost like the Colorado Admin said ok that’s it..we do t care about football anymore then you guys sucked forever..glad to See Colorodo will be back in the Top 25 yearly
@@happygilmore5591 exactly 💯
So true - I never watched or cared about Colorado football- I’ll be watching now
He has total power. That is why he went there. Auburn mess up.
I know completely
Looking back now, I think a lot of schools are regretting the decision not bringing in Coach Prime
Been going to buffs games my entire life, I was born in 2001, and as a sports fan I have never been this excited.
I pray that Coach Prime bring a winning record to CU for devoted fans like yourself.
I am 43 and i would suit up for deion right now,lets go
Auburn will regret hiring Hugh Freeze over Prime. I live in SC and have never watched a CU game. I will tune in now. That's a huge impact that can't be measured.
I wish Deion all the best!!😊💯
everyone watch: Sander is going to recruit:
1. another great QB from the West Coast
2. KILLER wide receivers from the mid-west, Texas and the West Coast
3. the best SECONDARY in college football
inside of 2 seasons.
I doubt he recruits a QB. His son is going to be the starter
Yes his son will start and why not this kid is very talented
They’ll still get someone. His sons going to the league soon
You still need to recruits, he will get top talent to rival other programs.
I saw what Rich saw, the Pac-12 just got serious.
@@dstarkspp is he though, did he get offers from a power 5 school
Thank you both, for your statements, testifying to the character of the Man, and having his back!
Colorado's AD is going to look like a genius in a few years when Prime has this program ROLLING. that hire was an absolute win.
Looking forward to watching Coach Prime lead the CU Buffs next year. It will definitely be must watch TV every weekend for anyone who loves football.
I think the “Enter the portal” line was an evaluation of his players. He’s weeding out the weak willed. Those who stay are more likely to be fully committed to change.
He basically admitted as much later when he said the offseason schedule is going to be designed to make them quit.
Brilliant man. Great coach, great player. Go Colorado athletic association.
I am a diehard Florida State FOOTBALL FAN, I never cared for the Buffs not even when they won the National Championship. But now I will watch them.
Me Too! Im sucked into this saga deion has started. cant wait to see college ball start again.
Colorado had a Heisman, 2 Thorpes, and 2 Butkus winners, plus numerous All Americans. They were the real deal. Then in 2001 a Mackey Award winner. Now we're going there again.
Exactly. Some kids too young to know that Colorado use to be a powerhouse and I think he's going to bring them back
Thank you both for honest assessments!
Funny, the guest referenced coach Mac. Deon is the first person at CU that had reminded me of his intensity. He gave me chills as Mac did. Can't wait to see my Buffs in 2023! Go Buffs. Thanks Rich
I agree after McCartney retired cu slowly got bad! It's awesome news
SKOOBUFFS
Deion will absolutely be able to bring guys in and have CU competitive in only a few short years. People underestimate how much young people want to be part of what is now happening and attention getting, and modern. Not to mention the ties to NFL greats, coaches and media. NIL has made all of that highly important, and the smart coaches will not run from it but embrace it.
Change always comes, you can resist as hard as you want but the new always overtakes the old. In two years CU should be a 8-10 win team, after that competing for conference titles.
@@TheOtherMJ_76 thank you! I'm Michigan fan also CU fan in Colorado 💯! Many years of let down after McCartney leaving it's about time we get a lil hope 💯
@@TheOtherMJ_76 ❤️
CU has just became America's Team 🤔⚡
thats right Sunny
Yes
Pump the breaks a lil.
College Football doesn't have an America's Team.
@@chaunceyhampton7637 it does now
Great video. There is video when first got to Jackson State with him saying to some kids- get with the program because I’m currently recruiting to replace you. If you don’t have a passion to play there is no need to play for Coach Prime. Love Prime❤
Most beautiful campus in college football, as well! Prime is gonna have a blue chip roster in his 1st full year
The coaching is going to be outstanding for a college football team. So far it looks like former NFL coaches for different positions, and a few assistance from JSU😎😎 he already has one big commit and I’m not talking about Travis Hunter plus a future prospects for class of 24/25
I will have to agree with that statement.
Offended Husky. You obviously haven't been to the University of Washington.🤷
@@atina5976 Washington is a great football team with a great staff. Another great program is Oregon and TCU as well. Trust me I know the Pack12 has talented teams. Now if Deion is able to pull the right people players and staff together his team will be among the elite.
Deion, although you will be missed, thanks for the memories the wins, mentorship of those young men and always keeping it 💯with them. Wishing and praying the best for you and your family in Colorado. REMEMBER TO KEEP GOD FIRST. Out of respect for JSU, the athletes and the city of Jackson, I wish you would have made the announcement after the CELEBRATION BOWL. (Canton, MS)
It's hard for me to think auburn didn't want deion because prejudice (not race exactly but he's a much different person than James Owen was) I feel like the old whites in charge are scared of his swag
Auburn is dumb for not going after Prime. He would have flipped a few Bama player's and loaded up quick at Auburn. They will regret not going after him.
They did reach out to Deion Sanders, but they didn't want to give him full control over football operations so .... that's what I heard
@@lonniethomas4343 If they are serious about beating Bama and winning Natty's they should have let Deion have control over the full arsenal.
Just thinking about this give me chills lol I’m a Buckeyes fan and now a Buffaloes fan go Coach Prime
Colorado is now Prime Time
I hope he gets it like McCartney! I'm a Michigan and CU fan! I'm glad we got Prime in Colorado! Now my favorite teams have great coaches!
Do you have two wives also?
Michigan and Colorado have been my 2 favorite schools for 30 years!! Did we just become best friends? lol... Sko Buffs... Go Blue
Prime is a great Father. Young men need good fathers. They thrive!!!
Great time 2 be a Buff fan!! Last 2 decades have been tough lol
The Team better be ready to PRACTICE PLAY AND BELIEVE!!!
- OR THEY WILL BE REPLACED.
I live in Boulder. I have never figured out why CU did not do better with athletics. There's a ton of world-class athletes who live and retire here. Heck, I moved here to train at elevation in three hundredish days of sun. I see a lot of attention being paid to this sleepy town now. It's gonna be interesting to see what the Prime Buffalo Soldier builds. Never seen the place so excited.
Because CU schools and PAC 12 schools are dying with respect to sports. It started in the early 90s and now you have ranked teams like UCLA unable to even fill their stadium for their games. Football participation among Western states is declining at a record pace. Look at what happened to the Rose Bowl. West of say Kansas there is no hope for football anymore.
@@flubby1982 Not True
Prime IS THE ONLY MAN WALKING THAT CAN FLIP THAT SCHOOL
Colorado hats will sell like crazy
I'm getting one!
@@dondobbs7722 me too and a prime hoodie.
In a year or two, someone ought to take a screenshot of that roomful of Colorado players, and show which ones remain.
Some people in Colorado football and the college in general, need a damn pay raise. Great job guys/ladies. Whoever won there.
Listening to him talk to the team like no one has ever talked to them before….it was about time someone went in there not afraid to speak the truth to these kids. There are no participation ribbons in this school anymore….finally.
Deion at Auburn would have been HUGE! Iron Bowl tickets would have cost more then Superbowl tickets.
The powers at be wasn’t going to keep letting the top high school players continue going to HCBUs. That Travis Hunter signing really rocked the NCAA boat. Deion would’ve be a recruiting magnet for more of the top high school players to sign at JSU. Gotta see the bigger picture.
And that’s what ppl REFUSE to see . But I can’t even be mad at Deion cuz he did say from day 1 he was gone entertain other opportunities. But now it’s going back to what it was them top recruits is gone continue going to pwi instead of what sanders said he was going to help make happen
At be? Grammer
Ehh that is Kyrie Irving talk shadowy figures stopping HBCU's
exactly bro what exactly bro my own people are calling me dumb and all that our people are so lost bro
@@dontbescared512 Right.. This so much more than the money. The five million a year is 5x less than peanuts. Compared to the money the NCAA top schools would lose if the best players continued going to HCBUs.
Go Buffs!
It's like Michael Jordan kids that never seen him play go crazy for his sneakers because of his name Deion is the same
I don't know why people are mad at Deion for leaving Jackson State? He's Chasing his dream of a head coaching job in the NFL one day and this is the way to do it.
Who told you that
He's said multiple times he doesn't want to coach in the NFL
Not true@He's chasing his dream of head coaching in the NFL
Man if i was player after that press conference i`m going straight to the gym ...lol
No, most of those kids in that room won't be there. Coach Prime is essentially telling them to leave now. Those who do stay will be made to quit through what will be a gruelling off-season conditioning program. The current roster is shiite top to bottom. The purge is about to begin. He coming.
Players from the previous coaching staff don't clap for the new coach. Deion Sanders just made you look at CU! They are going to win 6 games next year.
Whats crazy is how much of an improvement that will be compared to this past season.
@@DeeRG The transfer portal brings it alot closer
@@DeeRG I am not saying that you are wrong it just that with the transfer portal makes wining more attainable
Going to be some people looking pretty stupid in a couple years, one way or another. I know which way I'm betting because it's almost obvious now.
Great piece, it's going to be fun to watch. Deion has always had a way of backing up his words and that's an inescapable point of fact.
The reason he backs up his words is he lives by them. He puts in the work and expects the same of others.
Why he was such a great athlete and is such a good coach.
Read an article about him at Jackson State and he wanted the best for everyone even the trainers equipment people, he helped everyone. They all had nothing but great things to say about him, how he inspired them. They all wished him the best even though he was leaving.
He lives and preaches being the best you can be. He not only pushes them to be great athletes but also people. He is a great human being and it's no wonder he is great at everything he does.
I agree that Coach Deion will get 5 and 4 star football players want to play for him. You are going to learn from a one best football players ever.
I'm telling you. He's bringing the House. He can't fail!!!! He never has.
Even a 6-6 record. First time coach, I'll take it... He will go 12-0 with in 3 yrs
CU WILL WIN!!!!!!
FSU n Auburn gonna rue the day ...totally agree ...smh
Auburn fumbled the bag not going after Deion.
@@DeeRG but they are the dumbest. I say that as a person who rooted for Auburn. He was there to have because they were the best job open that has access to the talent. But they hire Hugh Freeze. The attitude is the reason they won't be a Winner in football. They make these dumb decisions all of the time. And a lot of the other SEC teams would have made the same dumb decision.
Prime is so Alpha, he doesn’t need any with Alpha , congratulations prime.
Coach Prime is the Real Deal ,and he has Magnetism and nothing but the Best is Coming. Coach Prime IQ for football is High and he will be implementing NFL style of football playing at a Collegiate level High Octane. Your sons will notice his potential grow quickly short period of time being tutor by Coach Prime Staffers. If he can turn around Jackson State he can turn around Colorado University in two years. You have to be willing to believe in Yourself and In Prime Time, just have a little Faith and the right amount of Funds to back Him up.
When he said. Your guy better work out great. That is an excellent saying.
Simple analogy: The University of Colorado was just raised from the dead by a defribulator pumping out the electricity of a lightning bolt...
Coach Prime will do well at Colorado & the PAC-12.
I was really feeling Prime would go to Ga Tech because of the Atlanta connection.
What those GA programs didn't want with Prime is, they know they would have to play the background immediately your team becomes Primes team. You are regulated to just doing your administrative Job. His success lowers their job security.
Deon going to CU was a good thing; all the talent didn’t just pile up in SEC & Big10… Pac 12 will remain just as relevant despite USC/UCLA leaving
Everybody talking about Colorado nobody was talking about Colorado a month ago think about that
Must see TV, lets go!
Getting any advice from a cornerback who is Superbowl champion, at the combine, as an invite, you listen.
Joey McGuire has all the charisma in the world . I am happy for Colorado and Deion Sanders but Joey McGuire has just as much charisma and fire has Deion Sanders and we love him here at Texas Tech guns up
Actually the whole SEC don’t want a black head coach.
Division I football is all about recruiting the best talent. Sanders will get the best guys and have that program in contention for a national title within 3 years.
NIL and the portal see ya! You can Best believe they won't be 1-11.
i would bet 1000 bucks that Deion does not end his coaching career in Boulder lmfao
The whole world believes this. Like duh
INJECT IT IN MY VEINS! (Source: a CU fan who has watch every mostly miserable game the last 2 decades)
I just became a Buffs fan
Other teams and coaches are already circling Colorado and Deion now... Extra effort to beat him like Spurrier in the NFL
Lol
@@sleeper9728like 'da UTE's who just worked USC like a red headed stepchild. Ran into a ute offensive lineman at a laundry mat in LA Thursday. A stout brother. He may have even been one of their players. Or definitely former player. He said we're going pound the crap USC. And they did. Last Friday they pounded USC.
@@DeeRG not exactly 💯 Deion was a great hire
Prime time will tell...
In two years he might easily be coaching Denver broncos win some super bowls
@@DeeRG give it a couple years.
Pro football is prime time not college!
And he wasn't going to leave Jackson State either!
Who is SWAC!?
@@DeeRG too legit to quit prime
All these high paid commentators from the South and East keep saying how bad CU has been lately, but because it's past your bedtime when Pac 12 teams finish playing their games, you always underestimate how good the Pac 12 is and usually never rank their teams as high as they should be. The last regular season poll this year 6 team from the Pac 12 were in the top 17 spots, and four of them were from the Pac 12 south. So maybe, just maybe CU was never that bad, but overwhelmed recently by an amazingly good conference.
Deon is the MJ of football 🏈 nobody is in his stratospher
Prime Time is in the House, you either against it or you give him full Support, What's it gonna Be ?
Feldman has like a daniel chase vibe to him
I am hoping that Travis Hunter stays at JSU. It will be lots of fun.
..from a FAN point of view. However, what's best and most important for actual football athletes is their COACH. Caleb Williams was smart to stay with Lincoln Riley as his coach, just as Travis Hunter will be smart to stay with Deion Sanders as his coach.
So when is Deion leaving Colorado? 1 year? 3 years?
He's going to be fixing programs and leaving after three years!
It's his plan....
Deion is a risk for GREATNESS
Auburn doesn’t want a black head coach.
Agree JB24. The SEC was the worst region in terms of owning slaves, screaming at young Black students when Blacks were finally allowed to attend their colleges, and Bear Bryant had an all-white team until the USC Trojans with their Black players trucked all over Bama back in the day. The Pac12/Western States were the most vocal region to fight for players to be allowed to earn above-board NIL money, so naturally Black athletes SHOULD reward the Pac12/West region that has fought the hardest for their rights instead of the Southeast which has historically tried to repress them, until forced to accept them by the West Coast being first again fighting for their rights.
It’s amazing that every kid in that meeting did not remove their hat when Dione said that crap was finished. They will took at the video and identify those kids. Instantly cut.
One kid in the back to the left of Coach Sanders removed his hat. The two kids up front: one with the baseball hat and one with the beanie are done.
Hugh Freeze "well I hope Alabama is a little scared now" :\ huh? WTH does that mean? Frickn' Gomer Pyle the coach???🐂💩🔥🕳️
Damn. Jackson St could have done better if they wanted to keep him.
Colorado should be a 9 win program regardless of head coach
People are too soft nowadays man. Grow up, this is college, it isn't a youth football camp. If what Deion said hurt your feelings get out of the building and don't play sports. Participation trophies have ruined sports. Like Ricky Bobby said, if you aren't first, you are last. Winning is all that matters. He's the coach. As far as I know, a Coach decides who plays and who doesnt. This program is better for it. CU will have a championship level team in 3 years just watch
Dick Vitale spoke it ; the next day Coach Sanders was accepting!
Auburn Alabama is behind the times
Auburn dropped the fucking ball
I guess Jackson State and HBCU’s weren’t Deion’s priority after all. Too bad. He could’ve done lot more good there than at Colorado. There’s big difference between competition at HBCU level then in FBS. I know white guys like these aren’t going to risk expressing any genuine concerns they may have in public. These days that is not permitted. But, Deion needs to prove he’s capable head coach at this level. Auburn’s concerns are completely justified. That said, best of luck to Deion at Colorado. Jackson State will greatly miss him and his celebrity.
It’s all very exciting but Prime can’t stick with anything. CU has 3 years of Prime, just as JSU had, then he is gone. Is that worth it?
Deon Will immediately draw kids (and parents) that are TOUGH. Kids that want to challenge themselves and see just how far they can go. Other kids won’t go here bc they are SOFT and the weaker part of the heard. That’s ok..Coach Prime don’t want them anyway🤷🏼♂️
Auburn's variety of reasons are only 1 and we all know it and let them eat it...
Prime will bring Colorado back
Mabye they can fill up their stadium 50 percent
i love this hire.. BUT this is a short term hire... 3-5 yrs.. then he's off to a bigger program... Welcome to reality.
It's all to get him....(Dion)........back to be HC of Fla State !! Dion wanted it before Jackson St..........but zero resume !!! He talked with many Coaches and this is exactly what they told him !! Turn around a small school--------turn around once powerful school.........then he will get FSU...!!!!! He will do it too.........he can flat out pull in 4 and 5 star kids !!!
By my math Prime has 2-3 years due to the PAC 12 dying because if CU is not winning its conference by then its going to be relegated to the MAC when the next conference aligns. I mean already PAC teams are leaving in droves and CU has been looking in the outside due to their issues. Maybe getting Prime now might help, but man you need 10 win seasons and a conference championship real quick.
Race is the is always is issue.
@@DeeRG The issue is IQ among races.
@@DeeRG : Exactly 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
2016 Buffs 10-4...only good season in forever. Still lost last two games that year 10-41 vs Washington and 8-38 vs Oklahoma State.
SKO BUFFFFFSSS
Dude, these elite interviews make me cringe sometimes.
Only Cristobal can go into a house and win over the parents with sincerity like Prime can
Gary Barnett ruined the program, hopefully this resurrects the program
Dan Hawkins ruined the program not Barnett.
Parallels between Donald Trump and Deion Sanders.
DEION IS RISK FOR A CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE
Look at their team… they don’t look like d 1 player
That's why Prime told them all they are gonna be kicked the to the curb if they don't immediately come to work and play their asses off.
