At the very end of this video it sounds like he says this isn't true (although it's hard to hear, so correct me if I'm wrong). And

I don't know what's going to happen with Prime but I bet people will put together pretty lucrative offers try to get him - for several reasons:
He's had some success
He brings a lot of excitement to a program (There's got to be a lot of jealousy out there with CU getting all this attention)
Every year recently boosters/programs put together lucrative offers for coaches they want. If programs had the guts, money, and arrogance to pull Riley form OU and Kelly for ND they sure don't see any thing at CU that is a problem to getting what they want.
On the other hand:
Cignetti will probably be the first target for really lucrative offers.
Prime doesn't seem to be that motivated by money. He's got a lot of money and can do more endorsements if he wants more, He seems to be more driven by situational happiness/satisfaction. (although money contributes to some degree to that)
Maybe with looming profit sharing things in the near future will make the coaching landscape different - I don't know enough about that.

I guess all things being equal, I'd rather be a Buff fan with Prime vs. an Indiana fan with Cignetti. He's got all the characteristics (ahem) that will put him in front of Prime for programs that will come calling.
I agree with all the rest.
Exactly. Especially in the SEC. You'd think an allegedly intelligent man like Stephen A would know that.
One of the biggest reasons I've heard for Prime not leaving is the autonomy he has with CU. No other big program is going to give him anywhere near the autonomy he has here
Prime’s total control autonomy is gold
Cignetti has said out loud that he only took the Indiana job because he will have B1G money, exposure, and can build something.
The coaching carousel is a disgusting thing, and the two top coaches are not going anywhere, so fukk off you outsiders
If, say, the Florida job comes open, and both Prime and Cignetti stay put, the ESPN crew would lose their minds.
I do not see any way either goes
Cignetti is a simple guy, Indiana is quiet and perfect with plenty of B1G money
The “Big” jobs are not that “Big” anymore
NFL Coaches usually do not move cause a bigger franchise wants them.
No doubt, he can set it up to remain in the top 5-6 coaches in the conference automatically, and it is totally worth it

He's technically operating as independent. He's not exclusive to just WO or TPS.

He's already in negotiations for a salary increase right now
Go Bears!
Everyone should be independent, GIG Economy baby
Every coach and player is independent, but Well Off should keep thinking about its bigger brand off to other programs
What he said
At about 14 m, he mentions his plans for the next couple of years.
He opens talking about walking the campus and how beautiful CU is
I believe him when he says he staying. Plus, with many fathers and sons, there's comes a point when it's time for dad to bow out of the picture.

Prime needs to get a Wi-Fi repeater outside his office. Not being able to work outside on nice days is a damn travesty

AllBuffs costs $20 per year. Upgrade your membership.
This feels like an easy thing to verify considering his contract is public information. Also, not sure why this has become a big deal. He could earn $1m/win and it still wouldn’t be enough.
Isn't he joking about not having the money so they won't ask for any?

Yak's kids aren't old enough to leach off of him yet. . . he'll understand in a few years
It's kinda funny that he included Travis Hunter in that list...

An important element to consider is the bonds of kinship that Prime develops with his players. With Shedeur, Shilo, Travis, and Jimmy leaving it will be interesting to see who Prime takes under his wing. Who do you all see as the next kin of Prime?
