Can you name anything that would cause you to refer to Sanders as "this human being"???

Well, Bjorn is a Cyborg. He may just be differentiating for his own kind.

It's a testament to the strength of his personality that he's actually got people convinced he's a real football coach

well he is doing it on the SWAC level... 25 and 5, and some of them undoubtedly required coaching. Some required a game plan, and some required a better roster than what he had

Is he claiming to have invented the word "braggadocios"?

Yes. Yes he did.

Hell no. Even if I was the AD of a relatively lifeless program such as Colorado.

1. Just because you were a great player doesn't mean you will be a great coach. In fact, history says just the opposite.

2. For as bad as Colorado is right now, the level of play and competition between the Pac 12 and SWAC is VAST. The SWAC is some of the worst football in all of college football. Consequently, if a coach can grab a few star players who are good enough to play in major FBS conferences, he can have success at that level.

3. Deion would undoubtedly be able to land some blue chip players at CU. But it's not like the other programs would suddenly stop signing their own number of blue chip players. So coaching STILL would matter. And even at CU, the level of scrutiny he would face as a Pac-12 coach far exceeds the virtual non-scrutiny he faces at a school, in a conference that receives virtually no attention whatsoever in the world of college football. Thus, if he doesn't produce results he will receive negative scrutiny for his performance probably for the first time in his football life. I don't see him handling that well. People with big egos tend to struggle with criticism, even if the criticism is objectively based.

Coach Prime's candidacy for a power conf. job is SOLELY a product of media propaganda. In any other situation a Pac-12 school hiring a SWAC HC would be soundly ridiculed by the college football world. IMO, hiring "Coach Prime" would yield short term "good" in exchange for a long term mess. That said, I'm not the Colorado AD. I'm just a fan. So I hope it happens to either (A) prove me wrong, or (B) allow me to enjoy the trainwreck from an entertainment perspective.

A regular dude just asked the mouthy bitch cheerleader to the prom and she is stringing him along to see if anyone better asks before she accepts.

Reports of Colorado offering Coach Prime $5 million a year with incentive increases of up to $7 million.
