Catchall Deion Sanders Thread

Hunter is virtually a lock for the Heisman. When was the last time we saw a player go both ways, and do both at a high level?

He isn't a lock because he plays for Colorado in the B12. If he was doing the exact same thing at one of the premier schools like Michigan, Ohio State, Bama, USC, Texas, or someplace like that he would be a lock. He looks like he is playing at high a level both ways because the level of competition he playing against is even worse than the average ACC team.
 
Why the F are we playing away at Colorado next year? No history there and a pain in the ass to get to plus potential altitude adjustment issues.

Next year, Deion will be at FSU and Colorado can once again just go öööö itself. He will take his best players with him. His baggage is Louis

Where is FSU getting the $64 million for Norvell’s buyout? Then add in the new coaching staff salaries. FSU cannot afford to make any coaching changes outside of a new OC/DC.
 
I’m sure the Prime pumpers won’t be too vocal this week after that.

Hunter deserves the Heisman. Best player in CFB, without question. S. Sanders is an NFL Draft pick.

That said……Colorado was OWNED by Kansas. Reality is, KU could have won by 28+. The KU OL and O overalls absolutely owned Colorado. Daniels was awesome at QB for KU, and the KU RB Neal exposed the weak Colorado D. 207 yards, 3 TD’s.

This Colorado team would be blasted by any B1G, sec or ACC at-large in a CFP 1st round game.

Colorado has been flipping commits lately. And looks to be landing the next QB. USC more or less did a 5* QB swap today with Lewis (who had been committed to USC since August 2023) trending to Colorado, USC flipped 5* TAMU QB Longstreet. This sets the stage for Lewis to pick Colorado over uga (who is reportedly throwing a very large NIL package at him).

Colorado has also flipped 3 4*’s in addition to the pending 5* commit of Lewis. They are trending for 5 other players. For as much as I thought Deion was leaving with his sons and Hunter, Colorado is trending to land an 18 signee early H.S. class in December. I’m sure they will be very active in the December Portal. All indicators point towards Deion being at Colorado in 2025.

That's great, but they will be just freshmen next year, not comparable to having Sanders and Hunter. You need years to rebuild your team through recruiting outside the portal.

After watching that game I think every ACC we played this year would beat Colorado. I also think Travis Hunter is very good; but way overhyped. I probably would not vote him for Heisman, certainly not based on this game. KU seemed to be able to do what they wanted on offense, and Colorado's offense simply couldn't keep up. Hunter was not a commanding presence on either side of the ball despite the constant knob jobbing from the commentators. I think Hunters will start in the NFL; but he won't be as dominating as Deion was in his prime. I bet a lot of DB's in the B1G, SEC, and ACC could cover him, and a lot of WR's in those conferences could beat him.

I don’t disagree. As a USC/GT fan, the loss of Lewis for Longstreet doesn’t make much of an impact. Neither will start next year. Lewis is obviously Prime’s only option next year when his son heads to the NFL.

We’ll see what Colorado does in the Portal this year. Overall, it’s safe to say, they improved along the OL through the Portal. I won’t doubt Prime with the Portal additions. He has proven that to be successful this year. I will admit for the 2024 season, I was wrong. But FSU 2024 showed that the Portal doesn’t always mean success. So we’ll see what happens in August 2025.
