dylan edwards is a dude. love how he carries himself
great interview! nicely done curry & team.
@@thecalm4324 lmao yet you had to put Colorado for views 🤣🤣🤣
@@Jaywon977 ? you’re so weird for this
Yeah he's a dude ofc wtf man
So he's still riding on CUs coat tail...somebody might just be regretting their move. #hesstillabackup
@@kp6042 Your so salty lmaoo Dylan lives rent free in your head 😂
Buff Alumni and Fan here, met him at DIA. Extremely humble respectful young man. We love him here, hated to see him go but we’ll always cheer for him…. Except against Colorado 😂. Dude has unlimited potential to break out even more this season
👆 👆👆👆✅✅✅✅
We miss you at CU Dylan! Wish you all the best this season.
@@Kernumba10 if it wasnt for dylan 4 touchdowns against tcu yall wouldve went 3-9 😂 dont talk crap now he's gone... everyone at CU shows him love, you're the only one i see hating on him
@@marquezsmith8889 people like you make me sick. You praise a person who was handed shit easy and try to bash the person who actually gotta put in work for a turn around 😂😂 you’re trash
@Kernumba10 I couldn't care less about Colorado record, I'm a Ole Miss fan.. stop hating on kids man, that's not a good look
@@marquezsmith8889 seriously
No we don't
CU got nothing but love for you young man! We’ll be pulling for ya wherever you’re at. Thanks for the memories.❤️
I am a CU Buffs fan & I’ll never forget Dylan’s 75 yard TD against TCU. It still brings tears of joy to my eyes. I wish Dylan Well. He’s a dog I will miss seeing in the CU uniform. Best wishes to him. Maybe following in his dad’s footsteps and his dad’s almamater makes him feel like he’s doing what’s best for him & making his dad proud. #SKOBUFFS all day long though 🤷🏽♀️
We were sad to lose you but very happy for you Dyl. All the best
Dylan's departure from CU shocked the hell out of me. Definitely didn't want to see the young warrior go. However, I respect his right to exercise his right. Rooting for him all the way.
True story
You can tell it really hurt him to leave, but he needed to be back home. All the best to him! SkoBuffs
Soft. Military guys n gals go thousands of miles away from home and not whine.
He will never find another coach to bond with him like CP did.
@@kp6042 What? Weirdo.
@@kp6042You've never been in the military just say that.
@@kp6042 Foolish to diss Dylan for going back to his roots. There's no whining, he's not soft. Prime wishes him well, so does Shedeur and the rest of the Buffs. So do Buff fans. You could be more mature.
@@kp6042u cross dress at night don’t you?
Life long Buffs fan here, Truly enjoyed watching Dylan play in Boulder. He is a class act. I absolutely cannot knock him for wanting to go home and bring his childhood full circle. Family is everything. Best of luck to Dylan.
Class personified!
Miss you from the BUFFS, Dylan. You’re still loved and much success on your journey.
As a CU fan I appreciate Dylan's commitment to join a 1-11 team. Rooting for this kid at K State.
What year are you in?
@@ahhhwhattt good thing NFL Scouts recruit from K State
@@AxelWok😂😂😂😂
he committed because CU offered $$$$$$ and he's known Deion since he was little.
I always liked Dylan Edwards♍️ Very articulate and well spoken young man. He did what was best for him and I can't knock him for that. He has a bright future and I wish him all the best 🦬
You guys got a great young player he will be great for you guys and has amazing character he was the only player we will miss but wish nothing but the best to you Dylan u deserve it all!
It’s good to see Dylan smiling & at peace. Blessings on his journey. 😊
He's proud of his Dad just like others. So to be able to follow in his Dad's footsteps a little bit makes his football experience even more awesome. 👍
Good to see Dylan making a way in the family way. you did your thing at CU. Good luck on your new journey. See you Week 5. no hard feelings at all because you are a stand-up young man. SKOBUFFS!!!
Would have been great to see him run behind CU’s new O-line
That part
Dylan Edwards, Michael Harris, Shilo and jimmy Horn was my favorites I can’t believe he left.
Shocked me he left . The offense was featured around him this year. With a new line . He had to be homesick
Thanks for not taking the bait, Dillon. Some questions were set up in the interview to bash Coach Prime and the University, and you just spoke your truth. You've gained my respect, bro, even though I support the CU University. I wish you the best, little bro.
You calling it 'CU university' shows that you don't actually support them lol
@@JoeE1024 I am connected to the team bro. I serve in the same city Coach Prime grew up in and I Recruit for CU. Lol trust and believe I am down with the 239. That is where I am from lol
He definitely was trying to g to get a viral clip, I wasn't feeling the way he was phrasing his questions about Coach Prime (who tf is Deion) and CU
@@thegirlsclub24 and I am glad Dillon did not give it to him
@@UnthinkableProvisionyou would think someone connect to the team would know how to spell their player names….. it’s Dylan
As a CU Buffs fan, I will always support Dylan. Best wishes to you Dylan ❤
Prime still blessing these colleges with exposure...
Dylan would be just an other guy that play FB but with prime they almost celibraties...
Facts
that’s a fact‼️
It's really cool how he was still able to go to Shedeur Sanders to have a sit down and share his thoughts prior to leaving. That takes a lot of trust to be able to do that, so that part at least makes me feel a little bit better about Colorado, despite all the rumors. On another note though, I'm excited to see what Dylan Edwards can do as he develops as a player.
he's known shedeur for a long time. it would have been weird if he didn't
At the end of the day he was going to leave anyway. He said he’s trying to make it right. He’s back home like he wanted at the start but like he said took a leap of faith with coach prime and it paid off. He would’ve done the same thing if he went to notre dame but he would be less famous but still ball out. Looking forward to playing him at home. #weupedthaskoo
I cheered for Dylan when he was at CU and I'll continue to cheer for him at K-State except for when they play CU. He's a great young man from a great family!
Me too, except when he’s playing CU 😝
The only transfer CU fans were actually shocked by, sad to see him go especially after all the dirty work he did for CU in his first year.
His name is Coach Sanders (or Coach Prime)........... Anyway, much love to Dylan Edwards, an amazing young man and talent.
That interviewer would never have called Coach Saban "Nick".
For some reason Dylan doesn't look happy. Sadness in his eyes. Wishing you well in your new endeavor. But I must stay true to #SkoBuffs
I agree. He doesn’t seem like the same happy young man who smiled big and had sparkle in his eyes and had a robust laughter. He doesn’t have the same happy spirit that I saw at CU. I wish him well though
We love you Dylan Edwards! Continued success! The host please give Coach Prime some respect if you are using his name in your title for clicks. Unless you are personal friend with Coach Prime to call him Deion.
@@ReneesHairweaving Right….show some respect 🫡
Facts
I’m a CU fan and wish Dylan the best at K State. I understand why Dylan chose to leave but the way he left was disappointing. Looking forward to playing K state this season.
Here and watching because of the Colorado effects, Dylan, Buff nation still loves you. ❤ Do great things this season.
Can’t wait til 21 put that hat on yo az!
I discovered Dylan at CU and became a fan. I’m still a fan and wish him the very best! ❤
He's not the only impactful player to leave CU this year. Nothing wrong with going back home to play at his dad's Alma Mater!
Other than him who else that left was really an impactful player that left?
WE LOVE DYLAN AS A CU FAN.. HE MADE A BUSINESS MOVE.. HES THE SHIT ALL HE GOTTA DO IS STAY ON THE PATH THAT WORKS FOR HIM.. THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU DID WITH THE BUFFS, IT WAS ART...
Good interview humble young man...and he spent a lot of time with coach prime and his family..so glad he kept it real and 100🔥
He will ball out with KSU, they utilize small scat backs well
I was thinking that too. If they can use him like they did Darren Sproles he’s definitely going pro
The title could have been Dylan happy and thriving at his new school and why does that whah man keep calling coach Prime by his name yet everyone else is coach.
@@omadjourney Exactly….. total disrespect!!!
@@donnabass5052 💯.
Because everyone else ain’t do what coach Prime did
Damn, I hate to see Lil bro hold back tears, or at least thats what it seemed, I just recall seeing such a bright spark in his attitude, voice, and demeanor.at CU, surely hated see him go, still got.love for bro tho #SkoBuffs
I gave Dylan a nickname, the problem. " I will be following all of Kansas games as long as Dylan Edward's is there, and I know that he's going to ball.
Hey I did too!
Dylan “The Crumbler” Edwards
Good ring and correct punctuation with mine
Going to have a hard time finding him on the Kansas roster
❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 we miss seeing you over there in Colorado. But God bless you. We love K-State do your best. Have fun represent❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ All the way from California. Let's go Dillon🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Dylan is a winner. Notre Dame, Colorado or Kansas State doesn't matter.
Perhaps, but he hasn't yet proven so at the Power 4 level, yet really.
@@bige2012winz are not a rb stat
@@thecalm4324 didn’t say they are.
We love Dylan. Gonna miss him playing at CU, however, I'm excited to see him at K-State too! I'm a fan of this dude.
Percy Harvin 3.0 and super humble. This youngblood doesn't recognize that he's on at least the same level as Travis Hunter and Shadeur Sanders. GOD Bless him.
Good luck to dylan edwards, great young man. I wish him much success
K-State is legendary for him, his father played for K-State at a high level... and the bag is secondary, even if he would have stayed at CU he would have gotten a bag 💰
He said Kansas state workout are more team oriented but yet COLORADO has shown that they do nothing but team oriented workouts
I think it's a little unfair to compare the two at this point. there is a clear difference between how CU was last year and what it is this year with new staff and so on.
But he was there this year.
@@nicolelianit was the same workouts last year
@@ONKINGDAVID I’m not talking about the workouts themselves. The guys on the team who were also there last year say the feeling in the building is different, as said above, more team/family oriented all around. It’s more of a brotherhood than it was. I’m happy for Dyl, he found what he needed. Atmosphere is important to a lot of guys so i get it for sure
I dont think you understand the definition of the word 'more'. Colorado can have team oriented workouts, and Kansas State can have more team oriented workouts. So the two things can actually exist lol
I wish Dylan well, except for when he plays against Colorado. Kansas State is where he belongs.
lol 😝 That part
GOTTA USE COLORADO FOR CLICKS😂😂😂😂😂
Colorado is a dumpster fire.
Keep that energy during the season
Lol can't use them for Wins😂😂
@@tarheeledsooner3920 like UNC in basketball🤷
@caroline0yx you just owned yourself so bad saying you can’t use them for wins means you can’t beat them… Can’t make it up…😂
He did what he could for CU wanted to go home where he always wanted to be nothing but love and respect for this kid.
All the best Dylan! Will miss you from Colorado. No hard feelings here. You’re gonna be great!!
Stop using coach prime and CU for clicks man
That’s the only thing CU is good for. They play for clicks!
Yeah…what kind of clown operation just latches onto one famous dude to bring media exposure to their football program?
CU fans accusing other people of jock-riding Deion Sanders for media attention is a kind of irony too on-the-nose for an Alanis Morissette song
This young man is very humble and im hoping he does great this year. He'll definitely be on a NFL team soon and now he'll have a OLine that's very good.
@Cats Talk, this was an incredible interview ✨❗️As a CU fan, I must admit when the running back room seemed to be jumping into the portal, I was shaking 😳, but when Dylan took that leap, I was heartbroken 💔. I appreciate you and your game. I will always be a fan, Dylan; I wish you all the success.
Hope you're happy and successful as a Wildcat Dillon. Wishing you the very best.
He looks like his personality got snatched away. I hope he is happy and comes back to being the bubbly Dylan we've seen on cam. Good luck and I hope you ball out! Dyl got top potential!!
As a WVU fan this is absolutely the right fit. KSU is a running backs dream and a program with integrity and family like atmosphere. I would say that the Cats are WVVs favorite team to play because the toughness of those games
Those you kick on your way out, you'll meet on your way down.
Why you saying this to Dylan? He said nothing bad??
@@tyreek.6815 you are the one mentioning his name lol,I didn't.
I'm a CU fan, and we all will miss Dylan this season because he would have been a part of some really big things at CUs future. I hope he comes back to CU 😢
Love Dylan but he needs to stay where he’s at. We’ve moved on.
Sounds like you really wanted to follow in your Dad’s footsteps and carry out his Kansas State legacy. No harm, no foul. You are extremely talented! We wish you all the best!🏈
As a CU fan I got nothing but respect for Dylan he was an electric player and a good person while he was there. I hope he obtains all the success in the world at k state except against cu lol but that interviewer was beyond corny for trying to get him to talk down on CU with certain questions ! You can tell it was a hard decision but at the end he wanted to be back home and playing with his childhood friends who can hate on that !
Dude said SHEDEUR probably 1st right pick lmao … no sir he’s gonna be 1st overall
He legit made a decision based off actual factors & not just This place is for clicks. He got closer to home & Will get to play that team I'm sure he loved. Can't wait to see buddy shine!
PLEASE interview DJ. Dude is kind of an enigma, doesn’t get enough credit, and I would love to know more about his story.
Where did the CU personality go? Kinda feels like a hostage video. Voice all shaky. Yall better be treating him right, lol! 🎶 must be the money 💰
I think it’s just nerves cuz it’s his first time talking bout it…
Thank You for this....let's goooo DYLAN
I’m from Chicago but a huge cu fan an in my eyes you ran had a break out freshmen year just to lose all the fans you made never in my life seen a k state game an I don’t plan on it either good luck dude
I'm from Chicago and I still follow him
So then why did you watch this video? And why did you feel the need to respond? This kid is living his life and doing what he feels is best for him. For you to think that he owed you, or any "fans" anything, is foolish and a bit immature. Hopefully one day when you're tasked with making an important decision in your life, there won't be a random person commenting about how they feel about your choices.
@@JoeE1024 uhhhhh because this isn’t a k state game 1 then 2 again he had a break out season with my favorite team that was a stupid question why wouldn’t I watch it I didn’t get your logic in that never said he couldn’t do what he wanted just saying how he made us as fans feel. Sound a little emotional bro let your nuts hang
You do know CU plays Kansas State?
Happy for you Dylan!! Navigating life as a young man is tough at times but continue to follow your heart and pray about everything!! Keep your family close, wishing you all the success on and off the field!!! 💪🏾✊🏾💯
I wish him much success in his endeavors. Go Buffs!!
After listening to this interview I believe Dylan will hit the portal again. I think he knows he made a mistake by leaving CU. Is this entire interview about CU anyways? Maybe dude want to run track and not play football.
You Colorado fans are so pathetic it’s disgusting
*CU Fan here. Nothing but love for Dylan. Go be great!*
Miss you at CU but I’m happy for you and hope you have a great season!!! Wishing the best for you wherever you end up!!!
Bruh would of been a star at CU and still was. I think he let a lot of people get to his head. GL on your next journey though.
Sevion Wilkerson got into his head. Dylan is 5'8" and weighs only 165lbs and he believes he should be RB #1. He left CU to go to K State where he will be option #4.
@@THE-BASEMENThahahaha atleast he will have solid a o line. CUs yet to be proven.
Not sure he will be 4th good bet tho.. I’d say 3rd.
Everywhere else but CU a bench warrior
@@THE-BASEMENTnot even just a rb1 he felt he should’ve been a every down bacc , however dylan would prolly still get more carries at KSU than at CU
@@ruffwayjayy992 Not going to happen. If a defender gets a hand on him with his light frame he goes down and he's too light to block. At best they will use him for trick plays and punt returns. K State has proven backs at RB#1 and #2 with size and Dylan ain't jumping over them just cause he knows the QB.
@@ruffwayjayy992depends on the o they run. Could be tru. And well that offense sux he’s not a great powerful back.
always going to cheer for you Dyl
I’m looking forward to the diversity K-State’s offense brings in terms of the talent and the number of good athletes. This is going to be a great season!
Great Interview...Such an articulate young man!
Greeting is he getting paid to do this interview. At the end of the interview it said sponsor by the NIL
DE Peace & Blessings on your new journey. ✊🏾
Dylan said he's trying to win games, while others are trying to win the Heisman. Great mindset.
Shots fired for no reason
Or is it? Reach for the sky. Anyone can win games. Not everyone can win a Heismann
yeah he shldnt have sd that. burning bridges @Dana-xz5nb
If you don't win games, you don't win the Heisman....
@@UncleKai263 "Win the Heisman" really means "put up video game numbers". If Travis put up crazy receiving numbers along with PBUs and INTS, he could easily win the Heisman even if they went 3-9. Shedeur would have to win games to win the Heisman as a QB.
If Colorado used him in the slot sometimes they would have won more games I’m still upset they didn’t use them like that
They definitely should’ve used him more
Happiness resides not in possessions, and not in gold, happiness dwells in the soul.
Are all the comments from CU fans. Dang clickbait 😂 Where are the Kansas supporters? Just sayin' . Nonetheless, again good luck Dylan
Great interview
15 secs in he quotes Coach Prime.. “Let’s keep the main thing, the main thing.”
It’s a Stephen Covey quote that has been used for several years by others in football.
@@MeExcel123he learned it from Prime
It's ok to say Coach Prime. People also don't seem to know that all people have their own personal stories that the public don't automatically have to understand.
Dylan Edwards we luv you young man and wish you all the best man
Thank you Dylan for sharing your story I believe that you gonna do good at Kansas state 😎💪🏾 keep up the good interviews curry
Dylan Godspeed! Wishing you the best always!
Dylan Edwards is a dawg gonna miss him here in Colorado !
Did you Dylan respect and have a talk with Coach Prime before you decided to go to K-State?
Bruh really think he’s rb1 at any other school than Colorado is his problem lmao bro u would’ve been wr 2/3 if prime didn’t help raise u
Have a safe and wonderful journey..... Dylan!!!
Wishing You all the best Dylan!!
Tough questions! I believe he's going to be phenomenal. Sounds like he wasn't being FULLY open about being at CU. Something happened that led to the entire RB room leaving. I'm pulling for CU but I'm also pulling for Dylan Edward's success. Still, Sko Buffs!
Dylan didn't want to compete for the position again. True freshman Micah Welch came in and raised the bar. They made plans to change Dylan role and he didn't like it.
Coach Sanders was on record saying he was going to create more opportunities to get Dylan the ball.
I'm not buying the doesn't want to compete narrative. Dylan has plenty of competition at KSU.
Smoke, Alto, Wilkerson and Dylan left...Smoke was out of eligibility.
They've now been replaced with Dallen Hayden, Isiah Augustive, Micah Welch, and Brandon Hood
I think Dylan and Alto(if he ever fully recovers) a long with this group would have been the best RB room in the conference. Without them, they'll still be decent, just not the most elite RB room. .... very good though.
Oh really?! So the last I checked Deion just gave his sons their positions w/out a competition, if they were that good then let them compete for the job..
Can’t wait to see him on the field for Kansas st
I hate he keeps saying Deion…be respectful “Coach Prime.”
Good luck Dylan!!!! Relax. You seem a lil… tight…… Almost unhappy or uneasy. Be great wherever you are!
That's exactly what I said! He looks sad, totally different than his CU interviews. I think he had a girl back home. Hoping he made the right decision
@@Dana-xz5nbhe is regretting leaving Colorado already
Wish dill the best.....but i really think he made a mistake. We shall see though
Possibly. I wish him well though.
Wishing you the Best and Much Success Dylan!❤
Keep grinding Dylan We’re rooting for you.👣👣🖤🔥
Colorado missed the opportunity to give him routes coming out of the backfield and putting him in the slot. We will see how K-State uses him. He has explosive speed, even from HS.
