“One will be doing what we say… Cannibalism,” feigned Coach Jason Brown, taking a direct jibe at the shams of the college football transfer portal. Coach Brown, as usual, did not mince his scathing words while tearing down the pretense of Deion Sanders. The only difference this time was his severe subtle-ness of taking an indirect barb at Prime’s son Shilo and Shedeur Sanders.

What drove the fans profoundly up the wall was the connection Coach Brown built with the ‘best CFB coach ever‘- Nick Saban. Saban losing the final Rose Bowl of his season became a loud, saddening affair. Post-retirement, football gurus began to shred the reason behind it thread-by-thread, and Coach Brown came with one tracing back to the transfer portal. “You are seeing why Nick Saban struggled in this recent last few years. It’s not a two-year fix anymore. He still has a four-year mentality, and it is not that way anymore,” Brown stated. The reason for it all? JUCO.

Junior College Football, or JUCO, as it is best known, is becoming a fast-paced place once whose dynamism is affecting the ones with the old-school ways, like Nick Saban. For Brown, the problem does not stem from the unorthodox ways. “JUCOs have become very watered down talent-wise. JUCOs are not the same as it was just five-six years ago,” Brown said in the ‘Coach JB Show with Big Smitty‘.

They wanted no more promising coaches like Nick Saban to go out of the equation because JUCOs did not have enough talent, which was something Brown strongly advocated for. So where does Coach Prime, rather than his sons, come into the mix?
CU’s recruiting strategy thrashed
“This not Last Chance U,” this is how. Shilo Sanders hardly imagined that referencing the 2016 Netflix television series ‘Last Chance U‘ would lead him to be dragged through the mud. Shilo referenced this while taking a bold leap toward his father’s nontraditional recruiting strategy.
With the Spring transfer portal windows wide open, everyone expects the transfer portal king to strike again. To make this portal window an equally tremendous hit as their previous one, Shilo Sanders’ decided to chip in his bit for CU. “Defense transfers DM me,” Shilo captioned his Instagram story. He did not forget the offense transfers as well, captioning, “Offense transfers DM Shedeur.”
This polarizing, unorthodox way of recruiting, surely shocked the old-school guys, just like Deion Sanders’ confession of not traveling to high schools did. Do you think these polarizing, unorthodox ways of CFB are the reason behind the talent in JUCOs watering down? Drop your thoughts down in the comments.
