Buffalo Stampede………..

Postby Mountainman » Sun Apr 30, 2023 9:49 am

………… appears to me as if Deon Sanders is on his way to building a program at Colorado based on performance and outcome. Since his arrival, 41 players have pulled an “Elvis”, and left the building. It’s a new era and ‘Neon Deon’ is showing the flip side of players coming and going.

THIS CLIP CONTAINS AN EXPLETIVE: you know Pat McAfee, he’s a foul mouthed shock jock. I know him as a guy who choked of two chip shot field goals in a loss by the Mountaineers that cost them a shot at a National Title. :roll: If it’s against the board rules, just delete it.

With about 4 active users, I don't think we have many "rules" left. HA!
They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.

71 transfers, and still counting. Athletic Director’s comment about it….. “We’re not the first to do this….”

I am not sure I like telling a player to transfer or lose the scholarship. But I guess if a player can leave at any time the school should have that option as well.

When a team goes 1-11 and has ben horrible....a coach will want to purge the talentless and upgrade....Deion has pulled 4 good FSU folks thar are 2 deep on the roster.

I guarantee you that they will be upgrades.

What goes under the radar is that FSU has had 29 plyers hit the portal in the last 12 months.

Yeah and if Florida State wanted them to go, then Deon using them did them a favor. I don't know the situation, but if a player left FSU for Colorado, they probably weren't going to make it at Florida State.

Deon takes no prisoners……… a hot shot receiver, Jaylen Ellis from Baylor, hit the portal and WVU gobbled him up and was tickled to death to get him as the receiver room is pretty thin. Yesterday or maybe it was Saturday, he sent a ‘Thank You’ note to the Mountaineer Nation via Twitter that he will now de-commit and take his talents to Deon and the Colorado Buffalos……., it’s the Wild, Wild West in the Trans-Portal. Here today, gone tomorrow.

And btw, there’s a NCAA Rule that allows ‘First Year Coaches’ to do what ‘Prime Time’ is doing…… i.e. to ‘cut’ players. :wink: :wink: :wink:

As I've heard it, so far ...

Colorado has seen an exit of 57 out, and into the portal.

Meanwhile, the door that swings both ways is set to bring as many as 60 incoming Transfers.

That is nearly ¾ the Scholarship allotment.
