It took my son running me through YouTube clips to get me to admit how good Deion really was. 1 Quote Link to comment

He was pretty dynamic in college too but to play at a higher level in both the NFL and MLB at the same time. It would be super cool to have another player do that again. Quote Link to comment

JJ Husker Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 If I was so impressed with Deion and CU, I’d have to seriously consider becoming a fan of theirs. Fortunately I am not impressed and my only thought of them is beating them by as many points as possible come September. 1 Quote Link to comment

Much the same way that the hire, so far, has worked for NU. Colorado needed to hire a coach who would 1) generate a lot of interest in the program and 2) create a consistent winner. Deion checks the first box, not sure if he will check the second box. Nebraska already has enough interest from fans, it just needs to get back to consistent winning. That's why Rhule was targeted and hired by Trev. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Super good point and living out there, CU probably needs to be what, 9 or 10 win team for a few years to generate any interest from the casual fan in the areas? I have only been to Denver in the summers and there was zero Buff talk. Quote Link to comment

The Avs won the Stanley Cup last year and the biggest news was signing Russel Wilson. They really do not care about college sports at all. 1 2 Quote Link to comment

I have only been to Denver in the summers and there was zero Buff talk. What I meant by "checking the box" it was more of what CU's priorities were in hiring a coach. They needed any interest at all and Deion creates that, at least in the short-term. My personal opinion is that Deion won't be interested in coaching for the long-term. If he is able to create some hype in the CU program, and be a winner, it's a plus for CU. 1 Quote Link to comment
