Doubts Arise as Chad Brown Questions the Longevity of PrimeTime’s Buffaloes Hype
The Colorado Buffaloes are navigating a pivotal phase in their college football season. There was an expectation that the Buffs’ alumni base would rally behind Coach Prime’s push for the postseason. However, not all with ties to Colorado share this opinion, as seen in Chad Brown’s perspective. The former CU Hall of Famer takes a pragmatic stance, emphasizing the need for victories. Brown said on USA Today’s Sports Seriously:
“It’s been a really fun ride, but to your point, they’ve got to have W’s behind this thing to keep the momentum going. The attention to the program… the eyeballs that have come Colorado’s way… that will all fade, if I don’t think the Buffaloes become bowl eligible this year. In our society, we love to hype people up, and we love to chop them down.”
Chad Brown acknowledged Deion Sanders’ journey with the Buffaloes in 2023. While the season has been thrilling, Brown offers a pragmatic viewpoint. He underlines the necessity of securing wins to sustain the current level of attention and support of the program.
