[QUOTE="Techster, post: 899161, member: 360"] Deion knows how to play the media. He created a persona during his playing days, backed it up with his play on the field, leveraged the media to project that persona, and it made him immensely rich off the field with blue chip endorsements. He's doing it again with his coaching career...and give him credit because he's doing a wonderful job by backing it up at Jackson State. Now, here's where you run into the Peter Principle type situation: Do you want to be the school that holds the bag if it doesn't work out because you took a big swing on a lower level coach that has immense media backing, but slim on experience? Did you pay for the media hype, or are you paying for a football coach? It's an expensive gamble to make...you can hit a home run, or you can strike out. I don't think there will be an in between with Deion at the P5 level. [/QUOTE]
