Everyone's a coaching expert all of a sudden.

The dislike is tainting your opinions.  Open your eyes.  Grow up. 


I've been an expert for years
I'm grown
you want to hang your hat on his coaching abilities???

Prime is Mel Tucker 2.0

He'll upgrade the talent, but he will still underperform relative to the talent he has
Colorado is #6 in the Pac 12 in the 247 talent composite, and #11 in the standings.  Last year they were #11 in talent and finished #12

Prime will upgrade the talent, and underachieve with it, just like Mel.  I rest my case

I think it's weird everyone is obsessed about a new HC on a bad team.  Just because he wants attention doesn't mean you have to focus on him.

CU is irrelevant.  It was last year, it was in September, and hating on Sanders as a HC is like hating Vanderbilt.  It's just odd.

Keep judging HCs on their first 7 games and see how that works out, Nostradamus.

Nobody is hating on him.  Colorado is irrelevant.  Last year they had no talent, no attention, and sucked.  This year they have some talent, a ton of attention, and still suck.  If he wasn't a former elite athlete.

MSU is 6th in the Big Ten in talent, same as Colorado in the Pac 12, and is going to finish in the same spot in their conference.  But he doesn't wear sunglasses for no reason,.so I guess Coach Prime.has that on him.

I like Deion, and I think he's good for Colorado, because when else will they have the 6th most talent in the Pac 12.  But to finish in last place with it, and the way he's managing his staff, the dude absolutely cannot coach

7 conf games, sorry.

I'm not saying he's a great HC or good or bad or middling.  WE DON'T KNOW YET.  

Forming an opinion now is ignorant.  Getting pushback on that is stupid.

He has the 6th most talent in the conference and is going to finish in last place with it.  Of course we don't know yet. I'm just staking my flag in the stance that he can acquire talent, but can't coach it.  I may be wrong.  But there is far more evidence for that than there is for the opposite.

Including his own quotes from when he used to play, when he used to sleep through meetings, because he said he didn't care about strategy, he just wanted to know on game day who he was supposed to cover

Stop.

I'm not backing anyone.  I'm saying the avalanche of judgement here is genuinely bizarre and ignorant.  You're letting your opinion of his personality affect your opinion of his HCing ability.

I'm not automatically on the opposite end of your opinion.  I'm saying we don't know yet.

His personality is the only reason anyone is giving him the benefit of the doubt.  He's awesome.  Kids will want to play for him.  I don't blame them.  He's already elevated Colorado's talent from #11 to #6 in the Pac 12.  Problem is they have stayed #12 in the Pac 12.  They've actually been worse than I expected
