N/S Jane Slater: Coach Prime met with resistance after asking for more money for NIL and his staff (56 Viewers)

The smoking gun.

Yep, this is how Deion leaves Colorado while avoiding anyone getting mad at him. I wanted to stay, but the AD would not give me the money I needed to retain my staff and be competitive in recruiting.

 

[0rion]

That's his out

 

[Saint Jack]

He’s gone.

And I do hope that Deion takes the Dallas job. Aside from the entertainment of Jerry and Deion trying to get along and fit their egos in Dallas, that leaves another coach available to the Saints. Jerry may have decided to bring Kellen Moore back. He's not my first choice, but if we miss out on McCarty, Glenn, and Brady, I would be happy with Moore. I'd also be happy with Kingsbury. Really I'd be fine with any of McCarthy, Glenn, Brady, Moore, and Kingsbury in no particular order. I did have strong favorites, but the process has made me realize that you just never really know who the right pick is.

I don’t know how anyone could be mad at Deion for leaving even if this wasn’t an issue.
Deion at Colorado was never gonna be a long term stop.

I mean, he talked like he was committed to staying in Boulder. He also spent a lot of time talking about how historically black colleges were so important and how great athletes should go there because they were so important. And then he took the first big program job that was offered.

But, everyone should have known that neither Jackson State nor Colorado were going to be high profile enough for a man that essentially named himself Prime Time.

This way “no blood on his hands” when he takes the Cowboys job

 

[TruSaint]

I hope he goes to Dallas because he's not a good coach lol.

Yep. Setting up his excuse in advance.

 

[Saint Greg]

I have no idea how he would be as a NFL coach but I hope he goes to Dallas for the entertainment value and because they wouldn’t be taking anyone we’re looking at.

I want to see the Deion-Jerry Celebrity Deathmatch.

I would love to see Deion as Cowboys' Coach.

Regarding NIL, every college coach in the country should be asking their AD for more money. Though in Deion's case, his presence is what should be attracting community and corporate NIL.

Why should the AD commit more to Deion when he's already proving to them he's a flight risk? Plus their donors may be fine with having had 2 fun seasons of Deion and his posse, always suspecting it was short-term.
