"[You] always did like Bronco," but.....here's a little dirt....
In you're subject line, you include "re: new coaches." Then you proceed to share a negative spin on the former coaches while propping up the new ones based on comments from a single former player who supposedly surveyed current players ("those" being plural but not sharing how extensive that list is).

Propping up the current coaches is great, but sharing what you heard that appears to not shine a very favorable light on the former coaches is unnecessary even if you heard it from a reputable source. Yes, people that like dirt or who find this information suiting to their feelings towards the former coach will eat this up, but to what end.

In your final paragraph about the former coaches, it is stated "no one" would ever think about going to them...So the coaches would teach and that's it...no questions asked and "no one" would ever say, "hey coach, I hear what you're saying, but there are a few things I'd like to ask about my footwork or where I should keep my eyes or how can I get a better feel for when the opposing player is going to...or I'm not contributing much at his position so do you think there might be other possibilities?" This sounds like BS. Why is this repeated or does it need to be repeated?

I know there were other voices at the practices because they worked closely in their position groups. I've been to enough practices to know that plenty of coaches had their voices going. In fact, I really don't recall hearing Bronco extensively.

I know that you're saying that this comes from a former player and that somehow this legitimizes the points, but there's much we readers don't know about his mindset. If he shared it with you, fine. Is it really worth repeating in a public forum?

I love the new coaches and I'm glad to hear positive feedback about them "re: new coaches."
