fattycoug Intervention Needed

“Go ahead and hop into the portal. It will make more room for the kids we have coming”. Love it!

That should be the attitude of every program especially somewhere like BYU

Deion is sort of an enigma. He's got this reputation of the flashy, brash guy

fattycoug

12/4/22 3:09pm

I was thinking the same thing. His entire career was rooted in the fact that he was simply more gifted than everyone

Zach Morris

I don't think that Deion ACTUALLY was like that as a player. He talks about

Lots of guys work super hard and will never sniff what Deion was capable of. I won’t argue he didn’t put in work but

Plenty of guys make it to professional athletics purely on freak talent and plenty of guys work their guts out and never

So what is your point here? That Deion was lazy? My original post was that the d

fatty, I just read through several reports and found much more evidence for his good work ethic than I imagined I would.

Zach Morris

The whole Primetime character benefitted him in a lot of ways but I think it

fattycoug

That idea is beginning to make much more sense now. Either way he’s darn near the perfect guy who can straighten out

Zach Morris

If this is true I just became a huge fan of Deion Sanders.

BleedCougarBlue2

I don't know him but I know people who knew him very well professionally and they said he had a great work ethic.

No touching

See Bo Jackson’s stories.. hard work doesn’t always = superstar talent

Looking at the schedule on the wall, you'll notice that date for the yewts is in red. I hope Deion is successful and can

I just don't think this is accurate. While this may be the case for some and

Totally disagree. Look at how so many behave off the field.

I thought his goal was to help HBCU's.... money talks I guess

Well he is taking Jack St to the championship and plans to coach it.

He said there needs to be more Black Head coaches in P5 so he took the job

Very cool. I'd want my kid playing for a coach who demands discipline and excellence like that.

DJROSS

It will take him 3-4 recruiting classes to fix the absolute mess that is Colorad

Nat Gas Man

12/4/22 3:51pm

That can be accelerated with the transfer portal but he should be afforded that

fattycoug

12/4/22 3:58pm

If he can turn the program around, maybe they become an option for BigXII
