Why the one-time transfer rule can accelerate Colorado's rebuild

I probably don't need to do much to hype up the CU fan base right now, but regardless of who CU hired, programs don't necessarily have to trudge through long, arduous rebuilds anymore. For so long, the conventional wisdom was that a coach needed three or four years to turn around a struggling program, but with the one-time transfer rule, we've seen how experienced players can come in, immediately make a difference and improve a team. CU doesn't have to look much further than its own conference, with USC and Washington

When the coach overseeing that transition is Deion Sanders...well, it becomes that much more exciting and hopeful

Lol. Man, the buffs are on all content right now. Fantasy football podcasts, comedic accounts, everywhere. Pretty wild.

As weird as it must be, it will serve him well to finish what he started there


It has to be extremely rare to be coaching two schools at once....

Newberry decommits

Running back recruit AJ Newberry and CU are parting ways. He said decommitting but more like parting ways. He recently picked up an offer from Nebraska and took a visit to Vanderbilt but don’t believe the staff is going to be heartbroken by this one.

I’d expect this won’t be the last of these situations before Dec. 21 and the start of the early signing period.

Many of you are speculating on whether or not you like Rick George yet. Did the Deion Sanders hire help you reconsider Rick George? For me, it definitely did.
