He led a team that hasn’t won more than 5 games since 2016 to
9 wins. They were 1-11 the year before he got there.

Jackson State was 4-8. He led them to an 11-2 record in year 1 and a conference championship. He’s definitely won and amassed talent quickly everywhere he went. We gotta stop discrediting people because we don’t like their personality.

I loved how Sanders came into Colorado. He flipped the culture and made people a LOT of money - including himself. But let's look at Sanders' coaching record:

vs FBS 10-10
vs non FBS 28-6
vs Top 25 1-6

He lost both bowl games at Jackson State

I'm not suggesting he won't be successful at the NFL level as a Head Coach, just that it may be a stretch to think he should be.

Just ask Nick Saban what that's like.

9 wins in a conference who lost a majority of the winning teams to other conferences. They went to the bowl game and got smoked by BYU. They played 2 ranked teams and lost both. They beat 2 teams that had a winning record. If being popular and turning around teams in College makes you a pro coach than lets go out and get Ed O. Don't be blinded for your love of Sanders. The guy can not coach. He is living off of his name. He will be gone in a few years.

The Big 12 is still a solid conference. Arizona State. BYU. Texas Tech. Baylor. Kansas State. Utah. These are major programs that are sending plenty of players to the NFL. Again, they hadn’t had a winning record since 2016. He got them nine wins in year 2 after them being a bottom feeder for almost an entire decade. He’s living off being a CEO style coach that knows how to put people in the right place and both identify and recruit talent.

Not one of those teams would have 6 wins in the Big 10 or SEC. What do you think Deion would have done?
