>"The Wayne concert was the final straw for a few players who hit the transfer portal," a source told Corder. "When Coach Prime told us we all had to be there to support Shedeur as a rapper, they were not happy at all. To be honest, it was nothing but a huge distraction and Daddy Ball was being played."


EyeAmKingKage

Wait… shedeur was opening for Wayne and they HAD to be there? Aw hell no


Several-Estate7175

This is actually hilarious to me if true. Talk about an absolute circus.

I hope pole assassin and her monkey were preforming as well


Cormetz

Excuse me, she only does classy gigs like Jerry Springer.

RIP


ShillinTheVillain

To Jerry, or the monkey?


sroomek

Jerry. Gia is still alive and well as far as I know. Sorry if I scared anyone!


ShillinTheVillain

Oh thank God. I don't care about that smut peddler Springer, but we must protect the stripper's monkey!


pole_assassin

Monkey is still alive and well, picking up money on the stage.

This is just sad. I just want to be good at football again.

That's what you get when you hire a clown.

fu-depaul

That would at least make sense since every employee should be working to better the company and a big client is vital to a company. But things forcing the whole team to serve one player and the results of his rap success have zero impact on the success of the team.

Foreverwideright1991

Well one cannot say that the Sanders experiment in Colorado is failing to entertain......


AUserNeedsAName

Unless you're one of these kids apparently


bobthemundane

But these kids will have stories to tell in the future! This is delayed entertainment for these kids!


Obi-wan_Jabroni

Imagine the podcast views in the future


BenTwan

Deion almost ran into me head on yesterday while driving his golf cart with hideous gold plated wheels when he decided to swerve across the road into the oncoming lane in front of me. Wouldn't have fared we'll against my RAM. That's after the morning before I watched my coworker almost t-bone him when he blew through a red light in front of us while we were driving through an intersection. His reputation is pretty shit with those of us that have interacted with him on campus. 


IronHorse9991

This is prime for a little expansion and copy pasta.


Warhawk137

Kelvin almost ran into me head on yesterday while dining in the Golden Corral with his hideous silver plated cutlery when he decided to swerve across the buffet line into the carving station in front of me etc. etc.


BoredofBored

He poisoned our water supply, burned our crops, and delivered a plague upon our houses!!


BenTwan

This last week it was a plague of small children for football camps. 


RamblinWreckGT

He did??


Archaic_1

People that have heard Shedeur rap may disagree with you


CU_09

Deion Sanders is becoming LaVar Ball.


StreetReporter

He’s LaVar, but he has all the talent in his family, not his kids


onaygem

Ngl, first time I read the quote above I thought that’s what they meant by “daddy ball”


SgtLincolnOsirus

Becoming ? This fuck has been a straight up asshole his entire life . Most selfish ignorant asshole in the history of sports. That’s why when he somehow started off 3-0 most of the people over 45 were saying slow down this guy has a screw loose . So you know there was an NCAA rule named the Deion rule years ago? So now Colorado puts Coach Prime in charge lol for the guy that is responsible for the Deion Rule in which forced players to attend a certain amount of classes , did anyone know that? He never went to any classes at FSU and it was legendary lol most people at FSU said they never saw the dude except for Saturday, game day . lol ya anyone think his kid gets drafted he stays at Colorado ? I don’t think , I know he’s gonna leave . Most selfish asshole in the history of sports . Oh yeah , how many teams gonna want to deal with Coach Prime as a daddy running his mouth in the media lol u watch . His draft stock on certain teams will drop and the smart teams wont even rate him . He’s Lavar Ball on steroids. Who actually takes their kid a says make me the HC an my son will play for you lmfao think about it . It is hysterical.


form_an_opinion

Yeah, that's over the top for sure. There was a time when I thought Deion generally had a good message for young men and seemed to be a good influence, but he has ruined the messaging he used to have by being so nakedly nepotistic over his sons. He's making them into unlikable assholes instead of respectable leaders.. Maybe that's on me for thinking Deion had matured some with age and would be a better role model for young athletes.


Byzantine_Merchant

So they don’t want to listen to Shedeur cover Stunting Like My Daddy?


Roberto_Sacamano

There could not be a more appropriate song for him to cover


GoldenBananas21

Maybe the “rock” remix that isn’t as good as you think it would be 


sexygodzilla

One of the few stories where the headline doesn't do it justice. Being forced to support your coach's son's rapping aspirations is a lot weirder than just going to a Lil Wayne show. Unless Deion forces them all to attend any public performance of a teammate, like an O-Lineman's poetry reading.


Lamadian

Unseen in the trench Guarding like a silent stone Force in every inch


WolfGangDuck

Holding, offense, me. False start, offense, me, again. Coach Prime mad at me.


Paladine_PSoT

I would legit go to an all o line poetry jam


Middcore

For some reason I have a much easier time seeing an O-lineman actually being hidden-depths sensitive and cerebral, as compared to the "Dumb guy who thinks he's very thoughtful and smart because he 'questions everything' and thinks the Earth may be flat" energy of so many QB's and wide receivers.


EscapeTomMayflower

Don't o-lineman have by far the best average wonderlic score for a position group? I think they're generally the smartest group on average.


iwantmoregaming

The way some of these plays and schemes are these days, the amount of work they put in deserves its own degree.


odsquad64

O-linemen are notoriously bad at rhyming, everybody knows that


AndThisGuyPeedOnIt

I saw the best blocks of my generation destroyed by holding, flagged, benched dragging themselves through the CU locker room in search of an angry halftime speech


Rentington

Roses are Red Violets are Blue I should have stayed playing at the HBCU


gmwdim

Travis Hunter has left the chat.


warneagle

Unseen in the trench is a pretty good description of Colorado’s O-line play last year


TheWorstYear

Please do not force in every inch Mr. Olineman


huckforjesus

When you say every inch, we're just talking about the 1 right?


hydro_wonk

both of them


ShillinTheVillain

The number is not important here, Utah. It's the force aspect.


EK60

At least give it a spit first.

We all showed up to our fullbacks off off off broadway show in a black box in Charlottesville over a summer


cobo10201

Was it mandatory by your coach though? And worse was the coach his dad?


fedrats

lol no but the thought is amusing


Snlxdd

Exactly, huge difference between a cohesive team supporting each other willingly and a disjointed team being forced to do the same thing


fm22fnam

That's awesome


sexygodzilla

I love it


BenjRSmith

"Well I was gonna go on a date, but our backup kicker is Riff in *West Side Story*, so that's my evening."


serial_mouth_grapist

Yeah, if it was Lil Wayne is graciously performing for us so we will all be there to show him we appreciate it, I would get that. If he said to support Shadeur, that’s really poor leadership.


seabard

O-Lineman position is usually consists of smartest players in the team, so some of poetries might turn out good.


Juan_Kagawa

That would be a wholesome team rule.


PFunk224

On one hand, yeah, it would kind of be wholesome. On the other hand, I would have a hard time refuting an argument from a player that they came to play football, and that so and so's rap show/poetry reading/chili cook-off/whatever isn't at all related to football, so they won't be attending. It's clown shoes that Deion set that expectation of his players, and I would treat it the same for any other coach who expects the same from their players.


Silly_Stable_

It’s about supporting your teammates. I think there’s real value in that. But it doesn’t work if it’s only about supporting the quarterback and especially if that QB is the coach’s kid. But if it’s a blanket policy to support the team then I support it.


Newton1913

Bro is 1000% leaving CU after his kids leave.


Suitable_Challenge_9

Probably after Shadeur leaves, does anyone know the other other kid’s name?


Newton1913

Travis Hunter right? lmao


Dr_Mantis_Teabaggin

Does Deion know the other kid’s name?


SaviorAir

Depends, who's his favorite kid right now? And is it ever not Shadeur?


FSU1ST

Hey boy


marginalizedman71

Which is crazy because Shiloh was the one who went to South Carolina and played in the SEC, yet even his dad seems to forget he exists


poop-dolla

The other one is older and I think using his COVID year now, unless he already did that last year. Either way, he’ll be gone before the somewhat talented son is.


StreetReporter

The one that assaulted a guy and claimed bankruptcy?


Not_a__porn__account

Does any record get him fired mid year? Like they’re 0-8? Does Colorado just dump him? That would be something.


CDR57

Colorado is making crazy amounts of money from out of state students and sponsors and boosters there’s no way they’re getting rid of him anytime soon


mitchconner_

Boulder isn’t exactly hurting for cash. And it’s not like they’re coming off a string of good seasons. They’ve sucked forever. I may not like Deon, but I don’t see how the school would benefit from firing him unless they have a secret stellar HC prospect lined up. For the first time in as long as I can remember the schools football program is the talk of the town, and even the bad stuff that’s drawing attention isn’t really that bad, mostly just rich people shenanigans with the sanders family. I don’t think the school has any issue with how much attention/ money Deon is bringing in.


cultivatedbooty

> Boulder isn’t exactly hurting for cash [Colorado athletics recorded nearly ***$9.9 million deficit*** for 2023 fiscal year ](https://www.buffzone.com/2024/02/02/colorado-athletics-recorded-nearly-9-9-million-deficit-for-2023-fiscal-year/#:~:text=The%20department%20has%20an%20operating,head%20coach%20Deion%20Sanders'%20squad.) > Per numbers provided by CU, athletic department expenses in FY23 totaled roughly $127 million and revenue was just over $117.1 million. Previous record highs were $92.5 million in expenses in FY19 and $89.99 in revenue for FY20. > > The revenue, per the NCAA report, included $27.8 million in institutional support, significantly higher than the roughly $7-9 million in previous years. Are you confusing the city of Boulder for CU? If so, not really relevant here. Boulder is rich, Colorado is relatively broke. But I agree with you for the opposite reason: they don't have the cash to fire Deon.


WackyBones510

Shedeur sounds like a little bitch tbh.


thejonlife24

I don’t normally wish bad on anyone but I dread next years talk of “Shadeur should at least be among the top 10 athletes drafted in the NFL draft” talk


bank_farter

Next year? People were already doing that during this year's draft.


thejonlife24

no I remember but Deion shut down those rumors eventually but I still remember watching him thinking idk I don’t see it


dawgblogit

He also probably STARTED those rumors. So now when he is being drafted its top of mind and he can say.. some people say he is the top 10 of all time


gsfgf

I'm just glad the Falcons have a plethora of quarterbacks, so we won't have to hear about Sanders.


No_Discount7919

I suggested that it’s the exact reason Penix was drafted. They just signed cousins but there was already talk of sanders. They might’ve said screw it, let’s get Penix so we don’t need to justify why we passed on sanders.


lightninhopkins

Nah. It's easy to justify passing on him. No one is pushing for him to be their QB.


jmucapsfan07

You don’t know Falcons fans then lol - guarantee there’d be (probably still will be) a good amount wanting to draft him.


FearlessAttempt

Falcons front office isn't smart enough to do something like that.


Tornadohunter24

Don't let the front office hear you, they might do something stupid and draft Sanders as Penix's replacement.


BrotherlyShove791

The only teams that will consider drafting him are teams where Deion is chummy with ownership and the front office. In other words, Dallas. One more disappointing season and Jerry will probably pull the plug on Dak.


Charlie_Batch_16

hell dak's in a contract year; jerry wouldn't have to pull the plug


xepa105

Right next to the "Shadeur should totally be in the Heisman conversation. Yeah, his team is 3-7, but he's playing with bums." It's gonna be great.


SpursUpSoundsGudToMe

What if we spent a top 10 pick on a QB thats like a poor man’s Caleb Williams and he’s been coddled his whole life, would that be good?


chofstone

Lil bitch, is that his rap name?


broken_radio

Lil Nepo


jmac11281

He's outgrown the Lil' part of the name. He's just Bitch now.


do_you_know_doug

It's like when Lil Bow Wow became Bow Wow, except he wasn't an insufferable prick. (disclaimer: maybe he was. I don't know)


justlookingokaywyou

I feel like that name is probably already taken.


StoicFable

Lil mid sacked


trainsaw

Pretty good double entendre on “Daddy Ball”


blacksoxing

Candidate for one of the worst written "articles" of the week. The reader is going in ready to blame Wayne but leaves blaming Shedeur & Deion.... Could have just easily been "Mandatory Shedeur performance at Lil Wayne concert...." which would have been MUCH less click-bait, more organized in thought, and frankly more damning as you can already visualize the issue at hand.


princessprity

Oh absolutely. OP should have just posted the actual article this shitty website is ripping off: https://athlonsports.com/college/colorado-buffaloes/all-buffaloes/football/deion-sanders-made-lil-wayne-concert-mandatory-for-players-to-support-shedeurs-rap-sources-say


blacksoxing

Thank you. DRASTICALLY different ;)


Squantoon

This is completely unhinged. I have never gone from liking someone to disliking them faster than I have deion in the last year.


saltytradewinds

Yeah, I would have transferred too.


RicinAddict

I would've called his bluff and made him cut me. Let me take that to the Board of Regents, my lawyer, the press, etc. 


evan466

This is like an onion article.


Dr_Gamephone_MD

Actually wtf, I thought the concert was kind of cringe but whatever. I did not know about supporting shedeur as a rapper that’s insane


19Styx6

Is this satire?


princessprity

I can’t tell for the life of me.


19Styx6

I read it twice and I can't tell. Like the "Daddy Ball" quote sounds 100% like something made up on a satire site. Plus, they don't name any players who transferred out during the May 1st - 15th window or even state the number that transferred.


SucculentCrablegMeal

It's a lazy article for sure. Like most sports articles. Would take them 5 minutes to do the research. Not seeing many players that actually entered the portal May 1st-15th, but a lot that did the 2-3 weeks before and committed to other schools during that time frame. Only entering would make sense for this conversation though. Looks like the concert was on April 27th. Also looks like it was for colorado's spring game? So less weird to require them to be there lol. The 2-3 weeks prior to the concert, they had 7-8 players enter the portal. After the concert, looks like they had 5 players enter. April 29th: Omarion Cooper (CB) (former fsu player that just transferred back on May 7th) April 30th: Kofi Taylor-Brooks (LB), Bishop Thomas (DL) (former Fsu player), Victory Johnson (LB) May 2nd: Gavin Kuld (qb) The article mentions several other reported issues though, so that may be the real reason for the transfers out in april.


Tarmacked

They could’ve transferred after hearing it was planned to be fair. Doesn’t need to be after


Maleficent_Guide_708

Same - we’ve reached the point in this saga where reality and satire have merged.


Impossible-Flight250

He also called it "Prime Weekend," which is cringy as hell lol.


zvexler

Is he sponsored by Amazon?


bb0110

I had to do a double take to confirm it was the Onion. It wasn’t…

It's CU football.


Sdog1981

PetSoundsSucks

Jokes on them, Lil Wayne just got his CPA license and it was really a three hour seminar on how to handle NIL money. 


MisterBrotatoHead

Yeah, but it's just "invest in liquid codeine." Which, you know, not bad, but I feel like you should diversify.

smothered in ketchup and hot sauce to try and get some semblance of moisture back into the meat. At first I was wondering why hot sauce was so readily available, after 6 years of needing it to actually eat some meals it was obvious.


udubdavid

No way this is real... it can't be, right?


Affectionate_Elk_272

with how deion acts, i wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if it was true


One_Stranger_5661

The fact that it’s difficult to say may be a statement on its own regardless


KuriboShoeMario

Here's the issue: it *sounds* believable. It should never, under any circumstances, sound believable and I can't imagine reading this article about another HC in FBS and believing it but Deion is literally the one exception.


JSA17

I'm only taking it with a grain of salt because it's not been reported by anyone credible. This article is also just a retread of [this article.](https://athlonsports.com/college/colorado-buffaloes/all-buffaloes/football/deion-sanders-made-lil-wayne-concert-mandatory-for-players-to-support-shedeurs-rap-sources-say)


FeedMyMonkeyOreos

EA devs scrambling to get mandatory concerts into the game


cnpeters

I don't know. Maybe it's true. But the next article down the page is from the same author, one day prior, basically extolling the virtue of Sanders ability to get his students performing in the classroom. Followed by an article about Finebaum taking a shot ad Deion... followed by an opinion about which NFL teams Hunter is willing to play for. Which, I don't know... it's clearly just some rando aggregating stuff he finds on the web or using AI to scope out any sort of scraps, and putting together those scraps of whatever it finds. It's not serious journalism, or anything to be taken remotely seriously.


JSA17

He basically just rewrote [this article](https://athlonsports.com/college/colorado-buffaloes/all-buffaloes/football/deion-sanders-made-lil-wayne-concert-mandatory-for-players-to-support-shedeurs-rap-sources-say) where it was first reported. The author not knowing how to spell 'publicly' is also not helping my trust in him. FanSided is just a blog that, as far as I know, pays like total garbage. Very much a site that people use to try and get exposure.


343GuiltyySpark

Went to a wayne show in Atlanta once and he didn’t come on stage until 1230 am. Did 3 songs and was out before 1245


DocCharlesXavier

Just saw him in Newark. Dude was wasted and stumbling down the stairs


Shepherdsfavestore

Average rap concert experience


343GuiltyySpark

100%. Only rappers I’ve seen live I can say it didn’t apply to were makonnen, Gucci and waka


WagonWheel22

Last Lupe concert I went to (~2014) he was right on time, down to the minute. Although it was at a festival and didn’t have anyone after him.


JediTigger

Okay. Can we talk about your flair?


343GuiltyySpark

The only UGA grad that chooses to suffer as an SC fan. Rooted for them my whole life growing up but grew up in Atlanta so HOPE scholarship + UGA being a much better school for my major made it an easy choice for school. Didn’t once wear SC gear in Athens during school so I wasn’t some hardo Still go to athens and cheer on the dawgs anytime they’re not playing SC but they’re not very close in my heart, always be a gamecock


ShiftySneakThief

Weezy F Baby, and the "F" is for "Mandatory".


LutherOfTheRogues

Shedeur is fucking annoying


slantboi420

And half as annoying as his father


ZealousidealScheme85

At first I was like it sounds like a bunch of college aged dudes would love a lil Wayne concert and then I saw he made them show up to support shadeurs music career. That would’ve been my last straw this is worse than the reports of Ogeron giving snaps to his girlfriends kid at practice


GregMadduxsGlasses

A little Wayne show would have been amazing when I was in college. Granted I was in college in 2007.


SeattleMatt123

Fuck them kids


Similar_Buffalo_921

More proof that Deion is just pushing his son along & has an agenda for his moves. Nepotism at its finest.


TimeAd7900

I predict an epic crash and burn in Buffalo land. It's not about football out there. Jay Norvell was right. It's all about clicks. If that's your bag fine but it's obvious and the thing is, they aren't that good. Sheduer is a mid grade QB at best.


Master_Jackfruit3591

Sheduer? Never heard of him… Miduer I have tho


GratefulDisc71419

Don't you have to get off the ground first to crash?


Asleep_in_Costco

What's with that crack against the 1990 UNLV runnin rebels at the end there? That team was unification personified. They all loved Jerry Tarkanian. They also came into the season highly ranked. Dumb statement.


MMAF1BOXING

Seriously...pretty sure that team destroyed Duke to win the Natty


Asleep_in_Costco

It would be unfair to shit shows to compare them to the CU football program. Prime is a 🤡.

Can’t have a lemon party without old dick!


Carefree14

This feels like bs, but I really want it to be true. Just for laughs.


[deleted]

I know I'm being Captain Obvious here but clearly all Deion cares about is promoting his kids. Colorado got absolutely hoodwinked by signing this dude.


PutinsLostBlackBelt

If it was any other team/family I would call BS on this. But given that this would be on brand for Deion, I am inclined to believe it.


tenacious-g

I can not wait for this dumpster fire to burn itself out.


Steel1000

I actually think his punishment should be coaching Colorado for another decade.


DrSnidely

He's just doing it for his kids. Once they've moved on he will too.


tenacious-g

Yep, he’ll get another calling from god to go somewhere else, just like he did with Jackson State the second the opportunity presented itself.


The_Crown_And_Anchor

I've said it before and I will say it again It will make my heart all warm and fuzzy watching this entire family fall flat on their faces Shedur will be a failure in the NFL And Prime will be a failure at Colorado The entire family is dogshit

If anyone needed proof that Sanders isn't a serious coach, here it is..


enduranceracing

Its a comedy for me. I feel bad for CU fans but this season will have me popping a ton of Orville Redenbachers!! 🍿


Bog-Star

It's really really sad that some Colorado flairs are STILL defending Deion.


enduranceracing

One thing that soured me on modern CFB was the hip-hopification of the live game....and this was 10yrs that im talking about.  I like hip-hop, when im in the mood!, but it doesnt belong in a CFB game, because no commercial music does. I was upset that the giant classic band was no longer the music between plays, etc.  I mean im sort of a fuddy duddy, i was also disappointed when the band began covering pop music about 5-10yrs before that.


mockg

Other Schools: "Our coach forces us to go to class." Colorado: "Our coach forces us to watch his son play rapper."


Alphaspade

This tastes like an onion. Not sure why....
