OFFICIAL 2022-2023 COLLEGE FOOTBALL THREAD

It's just a sad situation overall. Rumor is that he took some drugs at LSU that messed with his mind. When he transferred to UGA, he was 300 lbs and he needed time to get his mind and body right.

Even this season, he was our fourth tight end behind Brock Bowers, Darnell Washington and the freshman, Oscar Delp. It's bizarre that he chose to transfer to UGA when that position group is so stacked.

I wish the kid well, from all accounts he's a good person and comes from a good family.

What kind of drugs? Recreational or medically prescribed? If medically prescribed that is beyond tragic.

On3 did I think, it was the other OC Sherrone Moore.

That's not great.

I saw the drugs made him crazy thing from LSU and UGA message boards.

But without saying a name cfb writers had said even mid 2020 season that there was a kid at LSU who had been caught smoking weed so many times that he’d burned all his chances and the school wouldn’t let them keep him because weed is still more serious in places like Louisiana and Georgia than it is in some other states.

Just putting things together it always sounded like he was the unnamed kid, like he had some emotional/mental health struggles and was self medicating with weed, and maybe he needs to focus on his health and not football for a while. The elite football recruit/player life can be an unhealthy grind.

Why should he have to pay for his father’s sins tho?

He was an onfield coach the whole time Art was there, it’s hard to make the argument that he didn’t know what was going on especially considering who his father was.

Briles was the one that said to a black recruit "Do you like white women? Because we have a lot of them at Baylor and they love football players,” and told a group of other recruits that if they went to Baylor girls would be “very available” for them.

All while there was a sexual assault epidemic going on at the school that the football coaches probably knew about.

I hope Prime does well but let’s be real, it’s 90% hype right now. Colorado is the shiny new object. We will see if top recruits follow him if he’s producing 4-5 win seasons a few years in a row

But y’all gotta stop saying these kids grew up watching him when they weren’t even alive to watch him play

Gillie....wtf lmao

A 2023 recruit was born in 2005-6 (My senior year of college which makes me feel old lol), They didn't see a single down of his career. Prime primarily appealing to their parents.

Yeah, I think there's a good portion of the casual college football fan who doesn't understand just how bad Colorado is The worst team in P5 and one of the worst teams in FBS. It will be a miracle if they win four games this season.

A realistic trajectory, assuming everything goes well, for Colorado is:

3 wins in 2023
5-6 wins in 2024

 

[atlsfinest]

Georgia schedule is kind of a joke next year

None of us said they saw him. We said their parents have and know him well. That holds merit. A 15-18 year olds parent can range from 33-50+ years old give or take. A recruits parents probably would be familiar with Deion, definitely black kids.

Dude tried to compare Herm Edwards to Deion. There isn’t a comparison

So y’all think Shedeur gone flop as a P5 QB? What’s your stat prediction for Shedeur?

63% completion, 2700 yards and a 22 TD - 15 interception ratio??? Some of y’all are acting like Deion is inheriting Colorado’s previous QB.

Shedeur SHOULD be the difference. I’d be shocked if Colorado doesn’t win at minimum 7 games…

I think Shedeur will have at least 3500 yds, and 25+ TDs

I’ll throw down any amount you want that they don’t.

2 cornerbacks gonna bring one of the worst P5 teams to a 7 win team?

 

[witnesskb24]

Georgia schedule is kind of a joke next year

To be fair UGA had an OOC scheduled against Oklahoma but the SEC canceled it due to Oklahoma joining the SEC the following year and the series wouldn’t be able to be completed

Honestly, I'm not sure. Shadeur was a top 250 recruit so the talent is there but he is taking a Grand canyon sized step up in competition going from the SWAC to P5.

I haven't watched him enough to give a fair assessment. His role is going to change because he'll go from having the most talented team in the SWAC to being the least talented team in P5 in Colorado. We'll see if he's able to raise the level of those around him.

Hope it’s a trend that continues. Good for EVERYONE.

And yet I explained exactly where the comparison lies.

And that’s before I get into Pac 12 and program minutiae.

And you still never answered my question. **** you haven’t answered any of them

Let me enjoy this. I haven’t been this excited since they hired Dan Hawkins… and we all saw how that turned out.
