This article on Geno and his decisions brought back some of my own coaching foibles.
I have been retired from coaching just over 20 years ago.
We always had a very good team but I was the type of HC that felt I had to do everything and my 3 assistants were the eyes to make sure the kids were on task!
Then I had an eye-opener right before the 1990 season opened I had a coaches meeting where I told my assistants that each of us would teach our strong points at practice and we made lists of strong and weak points for us to follow.
It was as if someone turned on a spotlight and the team really took off, and we wrestled the best as a team (we always had great individual wrestlers) we ever did!
Sometimes being a HC puts blinders on about what is needed to be done!  You have to step away from your self sometimes.
Geno felt he had to be in control of everything including his players performances, if they failed he had failed!  Which is not always the case! 
What a great article into what makes Geno, Geno!
