I think it's fairly easy to tell which criticisms are fair are which are not:

One only has to ask the question:

"Would I be criticising [insert name of coach, administrator, etc] for [insert critisizm] if the team were winning?" 

If the answer is "No," then your criticism is not valid; it is an assumption on your part that the [criticism] leads to losing. 

 

Here are some examples: 

Would I be criticising Bronco for Having Firesides if we were winning? 

No? Then quit whining. 

 

Would I be criticisng Bronco for "Football is 5th" if we were winning? 

No? You assume too much. 

 

Would I be criticising Bronco for NCAA rules violations if we were winning? 

Yes, then those are valid critisims. 

 

Would I be criticising Bronco for not using all the teams practices if we were winning? 

No, you lack perspective. 

 

 

Any criticisms about Bronco's coaching style, demeanor, emphasis on spirituality, etc. are stupid because they assume that they are the cause of his failures. Until you have evidence that is the case, you have no argument. 

Reasons abound to critisize Bronco. The only one that really matters is that he is not winning games. Stopping firesides won't change that. Having Bronco recant his "football is fifth" won't change that. Doing all his practices? That might.
