I like that Deion pushed back on the reporter bringing up that Deion told the old Colorado players to transfer.
He's got a decent point if you understand who Deion Sanders is.
Deion is supremely confident and in many videos and speeches he talks about how he refuses to let the opinions of others impact his opinions of himself.
So when he tells kids to transfer out of Colorado, any kid who did so...in Deion's mind...wasn't confident enough in his own abilities, and therefore wasn't the kind of player he felt would help his football team anyway.
You could disagree and argue that it's Deion's job as a coach to teach and build and mold those players. And I suppose that's fair, too.
It's a good debate to have.

I don't think it's an argument there
Deion's job is to win, point, blank, period
All that other shyt may be passive effects on the road to victory, but it's not his job
Deion and Colorado both knew what time it was when they brought him onboard. Deion was just real enough to let the players know the truth, they weren’t good enough for what he envisioned. Whatever happens to them AFTER they enter the transfer portal isn’t a reflection on Deion, its a reflection of the NCAA and its rules and regulations.
There’s no debating results. Deion’s methods produced the desired results for himself, the football program, and the players.

Deions job is to win. That's it. NIL changed the game. Can't feel sorry for these kid's no more. They are making millions and this is business now and not simply amateur athletics. Players gotta come ready to play and compete now from day 1.
He hit the nail on the wall at the 9 minute mark with THE TRUTH IS GOOD FOR KIDS.. society want everyone to feel good, thats not life
He also added that the previous coaching staff recruited those players who share responsibility for that abysmal 1-11 record.
shyt is real out here
Those kids just sucked and he wanted them gone to bring in better players.
If that's the case, then college coaches all of them need to keep it real from the jump instead of selling college kids a pipe dream when trying to recruit them.

The totality of what he is doing is epic. I’ve enjoyed tf out these games.
But he was squirming a lil when talking about Jackson State. HBCU’s will creep back into obscurity when it comes to athletics on the big stage. And he was vowing to change that.
It’s like he’s not saying something about what happened or he was planning that shyt all along.
Either way, I just can’t hate on Prime. He’s been inspiring me since I watched him in real time take his first ever punt return in the NFL to the house.
