Not to mention, there has been a lot of media coverage for the team because of Coach Prime. Before their game against Colorado, Oregon’s coach Dan Lanning threw some shade at Sanders. ‘They’re fighting for clicks, we’re fighting for wins. There’s a difference. This game isn’t gonna be played in Hollywood, it’s gonna be played on the grass”, said Lanning.

Chandler Parsons, a former NBA player for the Houston Rockets, seemed to agree with Coach Lanning. “Well said”, wrote Parsons on Twitter. But, the former Cleveland Cavaliers star and eminent media analyst, Richard Jefferson, was having none of that. “So he invited the cameras in because he didn’t want clicks?.. c’mon”, wrote the 2016 NBA champion on Twitter.
