I'd chalk that up to it's just never happened before so you can't compare it to anything else. Deion brought a LOT of talent with him. It's not like he's coaching an entire slew of nobodies. He has some very good players on that team. If you start from scratch, but you have good ingredients, is it really that impressive?

Yes. It is the equivalent of having almost 100% a new team. Only his guys from Jackson State had ever played for him or most of these coaches. It's about as crazy a situation as possible from a continuity standpoint. Again, that is why I am saying this is so crazy. They definitely have talent but taking all these parts and molding them together in that short of a period of time is nuts. Keep in mind what the Vegas books had as win totals for them preseason. It was in the 2.5 to 3.5 range.

I think people are way overdoing it. All 22 if his starters were starting somewhere last year. It's not like he took over a bad program and coached the kids up. He left all those kids hung out to dry and told them to fug off. Kind of like he did at Prime Prep Academy when kids couldn't get academic eligibility because Prime Prep Academy was just an outright scam.

Deion is a piece of poo and this celebration is gonna end badly. Deion is gonna do what Deion does and it'll fug over a lot of kids in the process.

I'm honestly surprised a school like CU fell for this. It'll end badly for them.

I don't think he is any worse than most other college head coaches. He is just saying the poo they all say behind closed doors publicly. Most successful division 1 college football held coaches are fuging horrible human beings. They care next to nothing about these kids outside their own goals.

They've only exceeded that by half a game so far. Gotta see how they finish before talking about all time greatness.

Even if they do get there though, what happens if they fall back to earth next year?

Man you guys find anything to hate on Deion.

 

Blame the kids for following Deion. He didn't force them to go there. Also we act like Travis Hunter couldn't have gone to any school in America. He was the #1 overall recruit and chose to play for Deion at JSU.

 

What Deion is doing is no different from any other coach. People just love to hate because it's Deion.

 

 

The difference is that it was an HBCU. Had he gone from a Texas Tech to a Miami ... yeah no one would care. But when an entire generation struggles at college athletics due to systematic racism and whatnot, and you have the opportunity to make a massive change that could one day shift the way people view HBCUs, why would you leave? He let JSU down and you can't argue that. They're 4-2 this season and no one cares about them anymore.

And just as we smack talk every non-HBCU coach weekly ... Deion is now no different he's in the limelight he oh so loves. So he's open to crticism. Are you really giving us the "Oh, lowly Colorado" train of thought? No ... LOWLY Jackson St. They need Deion.

Oh, well if Vegas says it ... then let's crown him Belichick.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      By Aussie Tank · Posted

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
