One of the greatest Canes ever. EV.ER.

Awful human being.

He was a great player and had a somewhat dominant season in 1994.
But I wouldn't go as far as "one of the greatest".
UM has had many great players, especially on the DL, who did it for several years, and were, at a minimum, respectful to their alma-mater through thick and thin.
 
Can we officially close the door on “Deion is a good coach”? I mean I guess it’s possible he has a miraculous turnaround next year but he just went 3-9 and 1-8 on the Big XII. He hasn’t recruited particularly well and the transfer portal hasn’t been kind. Two 3 win seasons out of three total seasons isn’t what I’d call a huge success
 
I’m still shocked Colorado is letting him still get away with the “I don’t visit recruits, they need to come visit me” nonsense. What kind of crap is that? How does he plan to acquire high level talent with that philosophy? Smh.

This is why I get shook with the former player to coach thing. They millionaires already with and ego and pride. Someone asking you to work crazy hours to kiss kids ***’s on the trail. Because idc who you are the recruits hold the power in that scenario. Kids don’t care if you were a legend because they think they are the legend. You need hard workers on the trail as well as teachers. It worked out with JT but I’m sure Mario makes all his staffers work crazy hours. And if he hires you that means you are willing to work those crazy hours, and if you slack you will be replaced. Tougher to replace a former legend, makes your job harder cause the backlash of letting go of a cane legend. Lose lose situation imo

Your assessment is spot on, but it also comes down to the individual legend or not. Most, if not all college and Pro athletes understand the grind to achieve and succeed. But some have to work harder and longer to get there. Most often it’s the individuals desire and work ethic plus their talent that leads to success. When I observe and train students it’s the ones with the work ethic that we earmark for future employment. You can teach anyone how to do something, but you can’t teach work ability or ethic. IMO, that trait is universal, whether it’s athletics, working at Home Depot or coaching. Grinders gonna grind, Slackers gonna slack off. It always comes out in the wash.🙌🏽

Facts, coming from me a slacker lol. The truth is the truth and that's just the truth. You are absolutely right. You want the hard workers period end of story.

I was hoping he'd do just good enough for FSU to make the critical mistake of hiring him.
