Unfortunately for the TV ratings they were beholden to Big12 numbers - so while they drove ratings up individually they likely didn’t see any additional benefit for it.
The biggest constant in CU's athletic program is it has been bleeding money seemingly forever, dating back to the early 80s when they had to cut baseball and other sports. Deion's contract just adds to their woes now that people have figured out that his Louis Vuitton luggage isn't even Samsonite.
i actually don't know which outcome would be funnier.
Weird that they can't scratch together his salary seeing as how his circus generated "3.2 billion" in revenue.

Media exposure != account balance. They wouldn’t have bought that if they had to pay for it. A free mention on ESPN, or late night, or some podcast doesn’t pay any bills.Weird that they can't scratch together his salary seeing as how his circus generated "3.2 billion" in revenue.
University of Colorado Boulder’s $3.2 billion Deion Sanders gamble falls off to embarrassing low
The University of Colorado Boulder might not know how to pay Buffs head football coach Deion Sanders the rest of his $54 million contract.
Sounds like someone might be a couple decimal places off in their "estimation".
So do you remember their AD saying after they announced hiring Prime? He said he didn’t know where they would get the money to pay him.Weird that they can't scratch together his salary seeing as how his circus generated "3.2 billion" in revenue.

Down 43-0 to Utah with -18 total yards going into halftime. Utah has 400.Who on here wanted him and Fickell over Rhule again?
He demands his players attend class. He demands they be on time for practice and meetings. He demands they be active in the Boulder community. He does not allow head phones, I pads, or any other **** in his meetings. He mentors players who come from rough environments. Yes his son has had some legal trouble. Yes Shilo has been a disappointment to him. That is life. I am speaking to the good things he is doing with those kids. He is actively teaching those players about life, and they are getting the direction that frankly did not and should have come from those kid's parents.
His kids are straight clowns. He brought in Warren Sapp of all people to "mentor" these kids. Nice mentor. Bankrupt. Jobless. Former addict with a history of using hookers. No coaching resume.
He beat Cincinnat which was still ranked, maybe you should start inhaling some second hand weed smoking so your not so grumpy
I think it was an all smoke and mirrors thing. All flash and no substance.
"3 billion" in "free media exposure" just doesn't go as far as it used to.

I’m not going to lie, I gained respect for him last year. Dealt with more major health issues, team sucked….he could have left and no one said anything since he had beaten cancer. But he stayed and took the a$$ kickings on the field. Took it like a man.
