[QUOTE="4shotB, post: 960977, member: 844"] I haven't read through this thread so this may have been discussed already but I have often thought that Coach Prime to GT thing was hindered by the perceived similarities in styles between him and our former coach. Whether this perception is right or wrong is another discussion but another failure (assuming there WAS a failure with CDS) in choosing an "all hat, no cattle" persona would have been the ultimate PR disaster and the death knell for alumni support. Key might not succeed in the long run but he looks and sounds like "a football coach". Nor is this to say Sanders would not have been successful here either but the downside risk was simply too high for Cabrera and Blatt. OTOH, if the guy picked to replace Johnson was the stereotypical looking and sounding head football coach, and had failed in similar fashion to TFG then I think Deion would have absolutely been the right hire at the right time. So, in a nutshell, the timing was absolutely horrific for going with CDS during our coaching search. Which may or may not prove to be unfortunate in the long run. [/QUOTE]
