Deion Sanders is crazy about bags UVA football falls into the transfer portal

Colorado football coach, Deion Sanders, is angry with the Virginia Cavaliers football program for having offered his bags of players in the transfer portal. After reopening the portal for the spring cycle on Wednesday, the UVA was apparently active while trying to add to its secondary before the fall season.

Tony Elliott and the Hoos were so aggressive with the money they offer to players that Sanders himself had no choice but to call them in front of his team. Obviously, the riders are after the defensive back of Colorado Carter Stoutmire.

“Carter was offered a bag,” said Sanders in the video below. “What is the school that offered you the bag?”

“Virginie,” said Stoutmire.

“Virginie, you have to stop,” Sanders said to the camera. “I let you have one. I don’t say anything about it. Go now. Come on. We let you have one.

What Sanders means exactly by “we let you have one” is uncertain. Perhaps the HOOS were in contact with a Colorado player in the portal and could have an aligned commitment. Maybe there are only conversations that occur behind closed doors.

In particular, Stoutmire has not entered the portal. Of course, at that time university sports and before him, contact between players and programs occurred by rear channels before athletes enter the portal. If what Sanders says is true, Virginia is hardly a unique case.

What it points out is that Uva plays a lot of the game in the transfer portal. The program has legitimate support for Nile / Rétée sharing and is ready to spend big to call on players who can help HOOS win now – something that the sports program and the fans are desperate. Obviously, Stoutmire will not be part of this group. But Virginia seems to be on deion and the rest of the radar of university football, and that means something.
