more ambivalent before, but the amount of people blindly hating on this move is insane (and for some not so subtle reasons). stuff I've seen:

- Jackson State meant nothing because he had so much better talent

Kirby Smart: "There’s no coach out there who can out-coach recruiting, I don’t care who you are. The best coach to ever coach the game better be a good recruiter because no coaching is going to out-coach players. If you don’t recruit, guys, you’ve got no chance.”

- Sanders is not a tactician and will struggle against P5 coaching

I haven't watched his teams really, but I doubt the people saying this have watched his teams either. to blindly say he doesn't know football when he is a NFL Hall of Famer is something, though.

- he's just a CEO coach and his new assistants will do the heavy lifting

DABO SWINNEY SMILES WITH 2 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP GOLD TEETH

- Mike Zimmer alienated players with the Vikings

NFL defensive coordinator with proven record and head coaching experience is somehow a bad hire

...the list goes on
