I thought he was very good at showing confidence without being arrogant. I liked his mirror comment, but more so after he followed it up with "Do you expect me to say otherwise".
I used to not like him - maybe because he played for the semiholes - but I think he's good for college football.

He's the future of college ball especially in this age of the NIL. I feel like coaches like Saban and Dabo have lost touch with today's youth and cannot motivate this new generation like they could in years past. I could be wrong but this is what I'm starting to see. Imagine Deion with a roster full of 4 and 5* players...

I get the vibe that he is legitimately trying to be a positive role model for his players. I may not agree with all his tactics, but I think his motivations are pure. I’m no puritan or anything, but I tend to cringe when I hear a 50+ year old coach giving a locker room speech and swearing like he’s being paid by the F bomb, in some weird attempt to connect with the players. Haven’t heard anything like that from Deion, and it impressed me.

Deion is very similar to Dabo in a lot of ways.

High accountability. Faith based leadership. But also a player's coach. I think he's the new school Dabo.
I think Dabo and Deion would hit it off together really well.

Here are his quotes beyond that:
Deion Sanders: Let me see-- let me see a mirror so I can look at it. (LAUGHTER)
Jon Wertheim: You feel that.
Deion Sanders: What-- you think I'm gonna sit up here and tell you somebody else? You-- you think-- you think that's the way I operate? That somebody else got that on me? But I tell you this, I love and I adore and I respect and every time I do a commercial with Coach Saban, it's a gift. Just sitting in his presence and hearing him and-- and throwing something else out there so I can hear his viewpoint on it. Because he's forgotten more things than I may ever accomplish. So I'm a student looking up to this wonderful teacher saying, "Just-- just-- just throw me a crumb of what you know."
I mean, I suppose this could be interpreted as arrogance but I don't think it's that deep either.

Thanks. Maybe he's not as arrogant as he used to be.

Maybe he's matured and changed. Or maybe I was wrong all along. Either way, good to hear him exhibit some humility.

he has the ability to be a supreme shidtalker. He does mix in some humility as well.
I think he's doing a good job, and is doing it in the most Deion way possible. I do wonder how much longer they will have success and they have a tough 2 game stretch coming up.
His boy at QB can flat out play though. I'm convinced of that.

What he's done at Colorado so far is remarkable.

Deion tried to play it off a little bit, but the first headline I saw afterwards was from Bleacher Report, and it said, "SANDERS SAYS HE IS BEST HC IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL."
He did kinda say it, but not like the headline would have you believe.
