AURex 2,024 Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 (edited) This is no longer the mouth doing his mouthy thing. Yes, TCU is completely rebuilding. They've pulled in a lot of guys from the portal. So has Dieon and the Buffs. 50% of the team is new. Mouth vs quiet rebuild? I'm going with TCU and I am extremely happy Auburn did not hire "too soon" Sanders. Edited September 2, 2023 by AURex 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will laugh uncontrollably if they whoop up on TCU and at the folks in here who talked s*** about Deion all year long for no reason other than being haters.

Eagle-1 3,821 Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 I'm not a fan of Neon Deion, but Colorado has looked like they belong so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the last line I saw had CU around a 3TD dog to the Frogs. Still positive trajectory for the program if Deion keeps his team within reach in a close L.

Dom1ni0n 51 Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 I'd like to see Deion take Colorado back to where they were during the McCartney years in 80s and 90s. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their fans have to be satisfied with just being competitive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caleb1633 1,418 Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 I've said it before, and I'll say it again: We're gonna kick ourselves for not even caring to look at Deion in our quest for the next Pat Dye. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Son threw 500+ yards and a school record. 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homersapien 11,416 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 (edited) Impressive for sure. But I am glad we hired Freeze. Edited September 3, 2023 by homersapien 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AURex 2,024 Posted September 3, 2023 Author Share Posted September 3, 2023 Prime rebuild at Colorado vs complete rebuild at TCU. That Sanders kid is really, really good. The TCU rebuild was not as potent -- or the Prime coaching motivation was better. Either way, I concede. Credit Colorado with a win. Good for Prime, but that said, I am still totally happy we did not hire Prime as Auburn's HC. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburnatl1 4,997 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Never seen anything like this. Again, the media will/ is going crazy after tcu. They want a tiger woods ratings phenomenon in college football. The question is will fascination turn into something tangible for Colorado? Who has little pedigree and not a great recruiting footprint. Plus theyre currently light in nil. … They have some great skill guys but need a lot more size and depth to really be nationally relevant - it’ll be interesting to see how this plays out.

SLAG-91 1,483 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Yesterday's game is an anecdote at this point, but a very impressive one. Deion is, and has always been, box office, and the great unknown was that Colorado's team was essentially a humongous Deion recruiting class. I think I saw that there are 86 new players on their roster, and given how awful they were last year, that's probably for the best. He may be exactly what Colorado needed. That doesn't mean Freeze is the wrong guy for us. Their season will be interesting to track, though. I expect them to beat Nebraska this coming weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
