Coach Prime needs to refocus and move forward with the task at hand next year
Coach Prime built a significant army of fans long before becoming the head man in Boulder. A big piece of that pie is carryovers from his playing days. Some love “Prime Time,” the persona Deion Sanders created to reach higher levels, but they are two very different people. Then some have come on after the fact, clinging on to the messages delivered via the Coach Prime media machine.
Coach Prime might be the biggest fan of the transfer portal, as evident from his first two waves. So far this year, CU is seventh overall in the nation, but leads all schools with 41 new transfers. Nine more than the No. 2 teams. It’s easy to see this as an unconditional positive considering the landscape. After all, Coach Prime isn’t doing anything wrong when it pertains to the transfer portal.
Coach Prime being active in the transfer portal was never all that concerning. As long as one of Prime’s favored few wasn’t included in players entering the portal. Well, at that moment, “it was all good just a week ago” comes to mind. Let’s backtrack. Dylan Edwards was a Notre Dame recruit who tweeted out “Got room for me Unc?'' The moment Sanders was announced as the coach at Colorado. We learned that Edwards played for Coach Prime back in Texas as early as the age of nine.
Everything we’ve looked at thus far is all player personnel stuff. While there is plenty there to be concerned with. It casts a shadow over what 2025 and beyond will look like. Plenty for sports pundits to digest and discuss. If those were the only concerns, maybe it’s nothing to worry about. However, it’s not just curious personnel moves that come off as concerning.and that is not up for debate. No matter how hard anyone wants to push back on that.
