The Official Coach Prime and the Colorado Buffaloes Thread

[Karume]

your analysis?

 

[Karume]

this would be a huge get. I'm peeping what seems to be an intentional strategy to target redshirt freshman. honestly these freshman can take the place of recruiting straight out of HS for a lot of positions.

 

[Born2BKing]

your analysis?

I think the kid couldn't handle the pressure. Not everyone is built for the shyt that comes with playing for coach prime. Especially when its a spotlight on you for being a 5 star. He probably needed to go somewhere more lowkey, where his need for development went under the radar.

I pretty much agree with you.

Pretty much and it’s sad but it’s solely on him.

What does he expect when he lands at another name brand program? The reality is that the spotlight comes with this if your life path is to go pro.

But there are others more than willing to take his spot, get free promo from Bucky, a lil NIL deal and get some shine when this team does better than they did last year (and 2 years ago).

And if Prime is your coach, ringmaster and showman — then ride that damn wave. How many of these Buffs players do we know a lot more simply because there’s Prime-related attention on the program?

The smart ones are thinking ahead because Travis and Shedeur will be gon next year (along with a couple of others) so why they hell not be apart of what the future of this team will be. Because once they rattle off 7-8 wins (which could happen) — Prime gon do even less “recruiting” than he does now because Well Off is basically promo of how a future player could fit in there.

essentially at least 50% of the secondary starters are gone, potentially the top 4 LBs are gone, 50% of the DL, 4 out of the top 6 Wrs are gone, and 2 or 3 of the OL starters are gone next year. so there will be some serious comp for starting positions

Yup.

and even tho it’s the Prime show over there (as far as optics), Travis and Shedeur are great “supporting” cast members along with Shilo to a lesser extent.

So Prime has no choice to rebuild this thing with cats who are camera ready, skilled, can handle pressure — and actually follow the damn rules.

What happens this season will be a turning point because if they get their asses in a bowl game, everyone’s stock goes up, pressure lessens off of Prime a little and then it’s time to cook.

So for all of these dudes circling the drain about pulling up, it better be apparent what they can get in Boulder: tons of exposure, PAWGs (lol), a Hellcat (or Raptor), random NIL, cash under the table, chance to get a starting slot, NFL scouts pulling up, celebs pulling up — and your damn coach is a constant marketing machine.

Yeah Colorado is a tough sell for most and the state doesn’t really produce talent. It’s an uphill battle recruiting with these other programs having more ideal location coupled with in state talent.

It's why I always thought he should have went to Cincinnati after JSU. Would have made more sense to me... But they're making it work at CU.

 

[Karume]

we could use this guy...lol

 

[Karume]

breh hopped in the portal right after!

 

[vino]

They’re about to run the rock too.

 

[Rick Fox at UNC]

Prime about to run up the score?

 

[aceboon]

I'm late as hell, why did McCaskill and Metayer transfer out, they were behind on the depth chart?

 

[Black White Sox Hat]

Form like voltron.We comin.

 

[Karume]

I think Alto because he wants more guaranteed carries, Metayer inconsistency and unwillingness to block
