Yep, I watched 2 minutes. That's about all I could stand.

I lasted about 5 minutes.

Just because you are a successful YouTuber doesn't mean you are a good interviewer. Pate, sorry but you are not good at it. An interview should feel more like a conversation, this felt like an SAT.

It's not like he was going to get anything out of DeBoer other than a word salad of nothing. It's why I don't even listen to any interviews he's in anymore. He says nothing.

I don't know why anyone would think that there would be more than coach speak.

Hate to compare Coach DeBoer to The GOAT, but CKD doesn't seem to have a point or intent with every word he speaks. CNS knew who his audience was every time I heard him speak. And most of the time the audience wasn't the media person interviewing him. "Word salad" (as referenced by @Bamabuzzard) is what I think of when I hear CKD speak about anything ... since day 1.

But that's all for nought ... Just show me how great of a coach you are by your team's on-field production and off-field character. That's all I need.

I do think DeBoer's way (coachspeak) misses an opportunity to deliver a message. Sometimes the message is to your team. Sometimes it's the fans. Sometimes it's recruits. Sometimes it's more than one of those.

Saban was a master at using a large platform to deliver the desired message to the desired audience, and it looks like this is an aspect of coaching that DeBoer can improve on.

Anyone that dumbs down the A-Day game to a glorified practice (Many coaches these days) is going to be very tight lipped. I don't see his personality as one that is going to deliver a message in public like CNS. Those days are over.

Love Coach. Can't listen to a word he says tho. Please just win games.

This is what I am wondering. As he ages and becomes more comfortable will he improve his message.

At least opposing coaches will also hear word salad coach speak. They'll be scratching their heads.
