Sadly, for Coach Prime it all fell apart and the Buffs went from 3-0 to a 4-8 team that missed a bowl game and lost all its hype, but what happened?

Fall out from the transfer portal
Colorado had too much noise during the offseason. Real fans known they would have won 6 wins at best year one. They went 4-8 from 1-11. That’s is rebuilding. Hopefully they can improve year 2 and possibly see a bowl game or something better.
I agree with you it's just that 3-0 start to 4-8 that kinda makes it look worse than it is
Yeah I was saying 4-8 the whole time. I got the games wrong I thought they would lose to TCU and beat Stanford
Naw real football fans know they were literally 3 plays from being 1-11!!
It's always funny to watch the Sanders Cultists roll out that, "there won 4 games and the year before they only won 1......Durrrrrrrr.........." He didn't take the existing roster and coach them up from 1 win to 4. That would be commendable. He brought in a completely different "hand picked" (he said that himself) and only won 4 games....Against teams that were all sub five hundred teams........Won only 1 conference game........And ya'll act like he really did something?
Looking at Dan Lanning's legendary speech below here if there's a lot of CO players and staff who are offended by this than they're already beat though they will improve. They want elite it won't happen unless the attitude is more mature. Big strong bodies with frail minds, emotions don't work. "The Cinderella story is over, man. They're fighting for clicks; we're fighting for wins. There's a difference, right? There's a difference, right? This game isn't going to be played in Hollywood, right? It's going to be played on grass, right? It's going to be played on the grass."
Yeah how about you beat Washington 😭
he does have to find a way to overcome them. They play next year it's their last game. If he can't win in the next two years that's not a good scenario indeed@@LowKeyin
Never seen such a choke against Stanford
That loss was worser than the Oregon loss.

Nothing went wrong. They have a first year coach who is boisterous. They didn’t have the talent to compete with the best teams in the former Pac-12. They succeeded in drawing attention to the program so more recruits will come in and they won more than 1 game. Next year will be something to go by. We all knew it wouldn’t be a national or conference championship for them before the year started.
That's not what colorado fans were saying before the season and when they beat TCU, they were saying 8 wins floor 10 win ceiling
@@MagicMan508 that is true because fan bases can be delusional at times. Sensible fans can always want to win 10 games or make a bowl game. They also know how to be realistic and look at depth charts and talent present at the school. Then realistic expectations should be set.
Also note, most Colorado fans you see online, aren't Colorado fans, they're Deion fans. Prior to him arriving on campus, you couldn't find a CU fan on the internet. TCU dumped a lot of it's roster over the off-season, which is why Colorado slapped them around. TBF, I didn't expect that, but the rest of the season went as expected for anyone that had any realistic outlook on Colorado. Deion needs to work on recruiting if he wants to build anything in substance. They ranked 106 overall with 6 commits... That's awful for ANY power 5(or is it power 4 now🤔) school. Their portal class is 4th overall, but that's not as good as it sounds. Most teams only hit portal to cherry pick needs, he got an entire signing class damn near through the portal. If that's going to be the method he recruits, Colorado will be inconsistent over the years as long as he's there. You can't sign classes compiled on 90% being other people's players every year, forcing them in a new system and expect it to go smooth.
@@MagicMan508 I was thinking the same thing. Deion’s cult called ppl haters for not believing then they moved the goalpost once the team fell miserably short of their expectations
@@MC-so6bzthey have 6 high school recruits. They aren’t every going to get better
They beat 4 average or bad football teams. Things didn’t go bad, they lived up to what they were, below average.
Alright casual 😭 most of the games were 1 td differences

You’re back!
Now that Deon has his first season at Colorado under his belt, lets see what he can do in year two.
good vid.
NOW is the time to start producing draft relevant stuff ^^
Colorado their biggest problem is they don't have the right attitude to meet their own expectations. I heard their latest introduction from their entire coaching and support staff. Many of them looked unhappy that's a problem because yes you can be super hard and skilled that's great and they have some of that. But show some genuine joy. For example if the coach hires an assistant who acts like he's miserable that is going to hurt entire program. I could careless how good the guy is there's better guys who have all the elements needed. You can't fake it. Sorry if I was a young man I would not want to play there. There's plenty of solid good teams that lost a number of one score games that end up 8-4 or 7-5. And they even won their bowl games proving their excellence. Teams are going to be more and more forced to win on development and loyalty to the program. This will make it harder to win on talent as being a primary factor. CO Buffs started on the wrong footing. Now with a 12 game playoff if they ever make it in future years I am certain they will be humbled again by more established programs that have the right attitude and years of established coaching experience. Getting all the 4 and 5 stars won't make the difference. You have to cover all bases.
Can you do a 5 teams that exceeded expectations and 5 that fell below expectations
PLEASE do a video about Jay Norvell leaving Nevada for Colorado St, as soon as you mentioned that I can’t wait for a video on it! Nevada looking to have a good year with new hire Jeff Choate and incoming transfers, and with Choate’s personality could spark fireworks for a potential rivalry with CSU as long as Norvell is there
hes back
Do one about Clemson mid season turnaround
They did pretty damn good all things considered. I believe they will keep getting better too!!!
Do something on Michigan winning the natty
Connor Stalions is the greatest Michigan Coach of all time. They should build him a statue.
Uh oh, Scott is back.
Its Colorado football...they hired Deion and really thought they were going to compete for a natty...all them legalized pots they're smokin 😂
Does it count as improving off a 1-11 team if the entire roster changes?
That epic choke job against Stanford completely took the life and soul from Colorado.
Saying nobody cares about the team before last year is bullshit. They sold out games as a 0-5 team the year before and had a top 4 attendance in the PAC for a decade. They were just shitty for 15 years. It’s a school with a natty and a heisman and a winning record over every team going back to the BIG12. Sorry you’ve only paid attention to the SEC Michigan and maybe Texas in the last decade.I guess under this Logic people only care about like 10 Blue Blood schools and nobody cares about any other school outside the SEC and BIG10 and not even most of those schools.
While colorado played in a pretty loaded conference, i dont think a bowl game shouldve ever been out of the conversation. I dont think Deion will end up winning much as a head coach, because he cant teach discipline, rather he encourages cockiness and individuality. He brought in pretty much a whole new team and finished with the same in-conference record and had it not been for jeff sims, the same overall record as last year. I have a feeling that his head coaching career is simply an excuse to put his son in the best situation to succeed at the next level.
Someone do a video on Dana Holgerson and my UH coogs we need an evaluation
Bro who is expecting a 1-11 team to win the playoffs. Name a patch and a team in football history nfl or ncaa. I’ll wait!
As a Buckeyes fan I do believe that they can make the twelve team playoffs 😊
WHAT!!!!!
@@TonyPac-ub3dd I am basically saying even though I am a fan of another that dont means that I will over look Colordo
Too young, too immature, to undisciplined and undermanned. Everyone who knows anything about football knows they were not capable of being anything more than what they were. An inconsistent roller coaster of a team. They will be better
Coach Prime doesn't care about recruiting high school players to build a strong foundation in a couple seasons because he only recruied a few of them. It's like he's planning on leaving with his son after next season because all he is looking for is quick fixes from the portal to make his son look good. Coach Prime scapegoated his OC/Play Caller during the middle of the season by demoting him because his program fell off a cliff. So his team will probably be similar next season because they will probably have depth issues again.
Lol you’re so wrong! Coach prime got hired in December of 2022. The early signing period is in December which means that the overwhelming majority of top tier HS players was already taken long before he got there. Only a complete imbecile would try rely on leftover HS players if they age trying to completely overhaul a drastically failing team. Literally the only way to get an influx of immediate talent is the transfer portal and that’s just what he did and won 4 times more games than the previous coaching staff did. All while making colorado relevant again so that they could build the brand to attract top HS talent for years to come. How do you not see that!?!
I got tired of the hype. Deion Sanders is not a good coach. Deion is good at marketing, and that's it.
Same reason Michigan won the Championship, Trenches Trenches Trenches
Nothing it all went according to plan.
Could not have gone been
That team 💪🔥 💦 was the embodiment of the spirit of Colorado 🦬
They laid the foundation for the future
And boy does the future of the buffalo 🦬 look glorious
What prime was able to do in the time period biblical
They have laid a foundation like all the great programs that came before him
More cow bell, I mean hype.
Deion is there to showcase 3 players . Its sad that there is that much delusion about Deions skin color that folks think the circumstance would would change . Heupel came in at Tennessee and asked the remainder of the players what do they need , you are my guys . He didnt try to expell anyone. I know the circumstances were different but what was better about UTs ? All the better players were asked to leave but its was because of ties to Jeremy Pruitt not their talent . Heupel had a good first season too If Deion had done that? This 21st day of January the parade would still be going . God moved Deion to J State now to D1 Colorado . I kinda feel like Shedur and his coaching staff will need to move on to assist pro fans with their watches
I think way too many people don't understand the point of the "playing for clicks, playing for wins" line. Everytime Lanning does something to build hype and buzz, people want to call him a hypocrite. But they don't understand the line. Trying to get clicks isn't a bad thing. But it can't be the main thing, and Oregon is in a different phase than Colorado. For Colorado, they are building their brand and roster. Oregon is trying to compete for important things like the CFP. Every high level program has to generate clicks. The really good and great ones can do that while competeing.
I never expected Colorado do much period why is people think a dude like deion sanders is a football coaching saviour like a harbaugh ? It took harbaugh what 9 years and a little bit of cheating to win it. Well all I know is I really really could care less if this team ever does anyhthing
people comparing him to Harbaugh is an absolute fantasy
@@Edward-nn1rq there's no comparison in how they coach which I know harbaugh is better cause he's proved it but it wasn't easy for him at Michigan I mean he was almost wanted to be dumped after the covid season. It's just that it takes time to bring a program back. Im not sure if Deion can do that Colorado doesn't have the type of inner qualities or resources but to think colorado was going be a contender bringing on the guys through the portals and all that is not realistic but they did win a few more games . Takes time
yes indeed you are so right, nice analysis. It's an illusion that will only bring heartbreak in the long run to over rely on the portal. Back in my day LOL 260 lbs. was big but now it's everywhere. Players from the South especially are in abundance many never get a chance either I've met some. So it is apparent one has to have a level of development and loyalty which I think is evident in both MI and WA in their title game what do you think?@@Erica-vd1gb
Colorado made great improvement from the season before. Growing pains from last year which is to be expected when taking over a 1 win team. The hype after 3 wins was insane anyone with a brain would know they were going to get killed by Oregon. I think they could’ve won about 7 games last year. National championship talk is from trolls nobody could realistically think yes Colorado winning the chip
Huh?? Colorado was a success whether you realize it or not. Coach prime got hired in December of 2022. The early signing period is in December which means that the overwhelming majority of top tier HS players were already taken long before he got there. He utilized the transfer portal, overhauled the roster and won 4 times more games than the previous coaching staff did. All while making colorado relevant again so that they could build the brand strong enough to attract top HS talent for years to come. The Buffaloes' six home games generated an estimated economic impact of $113.2 million during the 2023 season which is head and shoulders above the previous mark. So yes this year was a success! Go Buffs!
Arizona coach having a 3 min exit meeting before leaving for Washington.
Their season went just as expected. It was more of a cultural thing. Now the big problem although its not really a problem is that a lot of black people (not all not trynna cause any argumants) love coach Prime cause he unapologetically black so when he came in talking smack and beat a team that was ranked in the top 4 the year before a lot of people believed in him because they wanted him to win which is why you saw such strong support for the Buffs which cause a lot of people online who dont watch CFB regularly talking about CFB for clicks which then caused a lot of people to hate on the Buffs because of the perception of "undeserved attention." I dont think anything went wrong for the Buffs this was the expected outcome. New team new HC at the worst program in the Pac 12 and this is exactly why they signed Prime
There early wins were against teams like them dumpster garbage
He could have lost a bunch of games with the team that was there
The 4x their wins the first season. They will be better
I think Colorado goes 6-6. I don't get the hype around his son Shedeur, and Hunter.
Yeah, they came into Oregon talking all that shit and we had to humble them. Yeah, they were terrible.
Sean Lewis. End of story.
When you get clowns you get a clown show that’s why. Coach to his nepotistic sons
"After being crowned the national champions in September" NOBODY with any sense said that.. But you admitted your bias so ill just unsub.. I don't even like Colorado, but i bet you had 0 issue with Manziel and some of the louder coaches.. But i see your base so it makes sense
What went wrong ?? They were already crap
Comment for traction
Bulljob everyone had the buffs winning 2-3 games
Even the bookies had O/U 3.5 wins
As a bama fan y'all like lifting people up and love watching them fall
That man prime will win then i wanna see the bandwagon get going!
The cap bout shedeur not entering the draft is one of the biggest garbage i heard
U sure u didn't mean Caleb👴🏾
CZcamsrs don't make good content no more... at least get the facts right 🖨🕶
The coach sucks
The coach don’t suck the Team suck
Talking loud and too much BS won't win games.
Amazing the two worst football teams are in Colorado still deions team is still garbage
The people that think they’re going to be worse in 2024 in an inferior Big 12 are just as delusional as those fans that thought they would win 8+ games in his very first year as a power 5 coach. With a 4-8 record he made the program more relevant than programs with winning records. He’s making himself and the school millions. It would’ve been way easier if he kept his mouth shut, but would he have drawn the same attention?? No way. He’s not a great coach. Can he be?? Maybe….
