If nothing else, at least Deion got the personal satisfaction of breaking some news on national television
Why would leaking the attempt sabotage a game between 2 bad teams? It's not like they'd do a show to announce a big reveal.
Would this have been a fox property? Is fox “punishing” the pac12 for Deion running his mouth to ESPN?
They’d 100% throw it on the Pac 12 Network because the Pac 12 office is full of people in over their heads.
Someone mentioned this is the reddit thread...this would probably have to be a primetime game. I can't imagine how miserable a 4pm kickoff in August in arizona would be
There is a main pac-12 channel, and then regional channels if need be I'm not saying it's good but that's what it is
I don’t know what “he is sitting on something” means, but I did learn that Dana Beers is a Barstool writer (I think.)
Better slow down. Dont want to run yourself out of the “i gotta get my players in here” excuse too quick.
I also didn’t know what it meant when I saw that tweet. Then I thought about it for about .2 seconds and figured it out. Do better Brick.
Is this tweeter just going to leave out that for many years it’s been very much against the rules to sign that many players?
Deion Sanders certainly knows how to make headlines. The former NFL superstar and current Colorado head coach is seemingly always in the news for something. Sometimes, it’s for stealing some of the nation’s top recruits from bigger programs, like he did with five-star corners Travis Hunter and Cormani McClain in back-to-back years. But, other times, it’s for things that aren’t quite as good. This time is one of those times. The PAC 12 head coach went on The Rich Eisen Show and spoke about the type of family backgrounds he looks for in recruits. “Well, we have different attributes. Smart, tough, fast, disciplined with character. Now, quarterbacks are different,” Sanders told Eisen last week. “We want mother, father. Dual parent. We want that kid to be 3.5 [GPA] and up. Because he has to be smart. Not bad decisions off the field, at all. Because he has to be a leader of men. “Defensive linemen is totally opposite. Single mama, trying to get it, he’s on free lunch,” Sanders continued. “I’m talking about just trying to make it. He’s trying to rescue mama. Like mama barely made the flight. And I want him to just go get it. “It’s a whole different attribute that you look for in different positions. And we have that stuff just chronicled. We know what we want, and we go get it.”
Whatever the actual demographic breakdown by position group is, those are pretty shitty comments coming from an adult in a position of power
He was the head of what was essentially an organization that defrauded the state that he lived in. I understand that he's pitching the program to kids but come on now
I for one am shocked that Deion said stupid shit and yet, won’t get dragged anywhere because he’s cheeky and fun
100% no white coach can say that. It still feels racist coming from a black man so damn. He seems easy to recruit against.
Deion seems to have some very dumb and regressive conservative belief structure. Especially stupid coming from a divorced parent.
Deion sounds like he is just a step away from telling his players that they should watch Buck Breaking.
So he basically said stuff that a whole lot of other coaches likely think but can't say. I'll just say it's nice to have the guy that can get away with saying it
I’m curious how many top 5 or 10 ten lists Colorado can stay on for top recruits, as the SEC coaches figure out how to pitch against Colorado.
