Colorado’s spring game is sold out. Jeremy whatever, the skier/wide receiver of Olympic fame, was turned down when he asked to buy a suite for the year as everything is already sold out. With absolutely no connection except the pain of Cordell Stewart, I am admiring their colors and sweatshirts.
Is there a basketball player who could recreate the Coach Prime arc? I have two nominations.
AI to Norfolk State or other MEAC school and then his P5 job. Allen may actually need to work. Definitely has the media chops and the persona and the cultural gravity (I almost typed gravitas).
Dwayne Wade. Maybe? Jay-fricken-Z picked him over LeBron for the most mythical pickup game ever… but D seems too quiet, really.
Once again the one and one rule isn’t changing probably because it makes no sense for either side to change. Tbh, I feel like all the talk about it changing is a virtue signal by Silver so everyone continues to talk about what a nice guy he is.
Thought about Jordan and Magic and I’m not sure I believe they could actually do it due to weird personality traits (Jordan is a jerk, Magic is too old?). Also they are Top 10 All Time Players, which is probably a different level than Deion, but I didn’t specify.
I am on the fence w/ Shaq. I tend to think he’s a flake and he’s definitely a clown, which seems an obstacle to coaching. But he’s gotta shot.
Yeah I guess Kobe would be the closest, but in a different way since he’s an entirely different personality from Deion. Also the thought of Kobe coaching college basketball is laugh out loud funny
