Message: [QUOTE="SVCBeercats, post: 2910650, member: 7874"] Both Belichick and Auriemma have winning in common. In the video below Belichick talks about selectively taking from other good coaches what you think will work for you. I have heard Geno say he does the same thing. He visited San Antonio to learn from Popovich. He goes to Celtics practices to see what a much younger coach is doing. Bill's line "just figure it out" also resonates with Geno's personal philosophy for himself and for his players. Neither is real high on social media. This may sound familiar. Per Tom Brady, "he tries to make it harder for us in practice." Listening to Belichick is like listening to Geno. And this comes from a Pittsburgh Steeler fan! I always admired honesty. Both Belichick and Auriemma strike me as quite honest. Chuck Noll, Steelers Coach in the 70s, was honest. When he met his Steelers players for the first time per Andy Russell, All-Pro linebacker, he told them he had watched film of all their previous season's games. He looked them in the eye and said the reason you lose is because you are no good and I will have to get rid of most of you. [MEDIA=youtube]N2qhLmdpWBI[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
