Deion Sanders

Postby MustangBroker » Fri Nov 19, 2021 11:36 pm

If Sonny leaves, I would like to see Coach Prime hired as our next coach with Rashad Samples as the top assistant. They would be the best recruiters in the country. Deion is perfect for Dallas and would truly make us all of Dallas’ team. We would get a ton of great media coverage as well. Deion just took JSU to a championship. That’s how we become even more nationally relevant and take this to the next level becoming the modern day Miami style football program.

When Deion got hired there, he claimed he wanted to make a difference for Historically Black Colleges & Universities and make them destinations for talented athletes to make them their first choice. If he leaves this soon, he’s a huge fraud.

Sanders is also able to recruit players who with all due respect would not come close to qualifying academically

Uhh, no please...

Charlie Waters...Rick Neuheisel...Terry Bowden...a train-wreck former UT QB hybrid of the last two......

Wait for someone with the right chops...and no Mangino memes.

I'm open to Prime depending on who else is "the list".

Hiring Prime would be headline national news.

Probably great recruiting & constant media attention...he does have huge Dallas ties.

Hiring Prime is also a huge risk....I doubt Turner/Hart will take that risk.

But we do need to think unconventional.

Hiring a young guy that becomes successful odds say he's gone soon.

Hiring a re-tread like Patterson makes ya wonder if there is gas still in tank.

It's all a crap-shoot....look at all the massive love Sonny had...and now?....lol

Great points! TCU’s star running back tweeted that “they” wanted Deion. Our players will get more lucrative NIL deals with Deion.

Where do you believe that Deion and Samples would rate recruiting wise? Would we increase or decrease our ability to get top players from a statistical perspective? Would we get more or less media coverage? Will we have a greater chance to become inclusive of the entire Dallas population within our fan base ?

Deion would need strong a OC & DC and I agree he would need to hold onto Samples
