Posted December 11, 2022 To all you college football fans in Colorado. What do you think bringing Primetime to Colorado will do. It remains to be seen but I think it will work. He has a lot of Star power on the recruiting trail and I think he will do well given time. Anyway I thought it might be a interesting topic to us diehard football fans. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 11, 2022 To those who don't knowK9 Primetime is "Deion Sanders" He was a standout defensive back in college and NFL for years. And he has a very entertaining personality. He coached at Jackson State and made a turnaround of that program though its not in the Pac 12 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 11, 2022 Many are watching and hoping with Coach Prime that CU will make a big turnaround, but it will take some time. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 11, 2022 Already getting 5 star recruits committing to CU. His son looks like he is a very good quarterback. Prime time will make the up coming seasons interesting. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 11, 2022 Sanders is a Great Hire that is sure. What is just as big, in many ways even bigger then the Sanders hire, is that CU is now allowing waivers for the transfer portal, is now accepting almost all classes from transfers and is finally allowing early acceptance for athletes. HUGE in recruiting!!! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 12, 2022 80% of success in College football is recruiting. If you get the right guys, you have a shot (not a guarantee) to be successful. Get the wrong guys and you have no shot. Sanders has shown he can recruit AND coach. Seems like a great hire, although I don't know why he would choose CU over some other programs in the south. Maybe he can double up with baseball like did in his playing days and coach the Rockies too... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 18, 2022 If nothing else, he'll bring excitement to what has been a ho-hum last 20 years in CU football. I'm not a Buffalos' fan, and it'll be fun to watch! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 26, 2022 I will definitely renew my CU season football tickets next year. I’ll have to find a provider that likes CU games. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 27, 2022 If nothing else, his hire brings renewed excitement to CU football...at least in the beginning. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 29, 2022 Since the Broncos are going downhill have gotten some Prime Time, CU shirts. Also ordered a gold neck chain, figured you had to have a gold chain to wear with the Prime Time shirts. 😁😁 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As such, your gold chain is a great idea. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 29, 2022 Update/correction: 1989 was his rookie season for Atlanta. SI article was Nov. 1989. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
