    Prime Rib: Megalomaniac, he's carved up and spit out within 4

    He will get some good players and win some games but he has zero experience dealing with institutions and relationships that will hold him accountable for what he does.

    He will screw up epically in some fashion. He will have to deal with legit D1 coordinators, other coaches, and kids who have other options besides Deion, including NFL futures, their parents etc.

    With his ego and dictatorial style he will have players and families telling him to FO directly to his face. Will there be a Marcus Peters...

    Seems plausible.

    He'll be a success but no playoff

    PLAYOFFS?

    Pretty much. First sniff of success, not including a CCS, he gone. In the South somewhere. To him?? Hopefully FL teams. FSU, Miami, Gators, …don’t matter. The South and limelight. And boat loads or pussy, beach, clubs, big ass boats and flash.

    Is he even going to be able to field a team this year?

    I’d think so. I’m thinking with this “portal exodus” shit, he’s cleaning house. He even had a vid made of his intentions about running folks off.

    What HFC wants players that went 1-11 to contaminate his team?

    Prime Time: Sanders is a success at CU and plays in a CCG before he LEAVES

    This is becoming an increasing concern.

    I'm officially out of the prediction business, so I have no idea what will happen with Sanders and tend to just go with the data that points to most coaches failing.

    But is having a massive ego and dictatorial style something unique to Sanders? That alone doesn't seem like it would be the problem. And, of course, every coach in the country has to deal with the things you listed, so that's not unique to his situation either. And let's not pretend that Colorado is this massive program with a rich history and sky high expectations. They had a cup of coffee under the bright lights a generation ago and NOCs anymore. It's a place populated by students who want to pretend like they got into a great school and whose parents can afford the extravagant OOS tuition so they can be someplace pretty. Other than being part of the opening of Mork and Mindy, there is nothing special or unique about CU. As another poster pointed out, this is the most attention they've had since the Promise Keeper was running the show.
