The Price of Fame…….. Enjoy!!!!!

”We’re already in a time where the on-field aspect of College Football is almost a distraction. It’s an era filled with handwringing about player empowerment, NCAA deregulation, the transfer portal and realignment all while the sport generally moves toward a professional model.” ~ Dennis Dodd

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.

Hard to argue with him about his bravado. He was that good.

FSU coaches said that Deion was the hardest working of their players. First on and last off the practice field.

Maybe Deion inherited his showmanship from his dad...who was a Drum Major at Fort Myers HS...renowned for getting the crowd going.

Deion was a hard worker in Cincy too. He was always out early at BP doing his thing. Keeping the team loose and having fun. He is a leader.
