"It’s only September but it’s clear Sanders’ Buffaloes will be headed to a cool bowl game at the end of the season; the only question is which flower/fruit/lawn implement will be in the name."

Oops. Glad to see this experiment fail, to be honest. In addition to Colorado fans being jerks and their school jumping ship for the Big 12 at the worst possible moment, Sanders is a loudmouth jerk and his clearing the roster is one more (huge!) step toward killing college football - which is or at least was the greatest sports thing in the whole, wide world.

A pox.

It’s very strange that two games into his career and the thing everybody seems to be focusing on is where Prime will be coaching next. Two weeks ago it was all about how things were going to be a disaster this year. Been interesting watching the college football world try and cope with Deion.

I'm not sure that Sanders' approach is viable as an on-going thing in Boulder, as it seems to rely heavily on the leniency given to first-year coaches. Unless the rules change further, he won't be able to easily replace the 40 - 50% of the roster who turned out to not be high-level performers, the way he did the 90% this year. And I think it's possible that the inevitable future CBA might restrict that further.
