Message: [QUOTE="tchalla1, post: 4132425, member: 9866"] Well that was a rather obtuse, tough-minded critique but you make some sound observations--poignant, but sound... It's always a delicate balance of playing your bench and developing them. One observation that I've made that fits with your critique of him is his "Captain Hook" approach to players who make mistakes--one and you're done--doesn't seem to be compatible with his players. I contrast his pulling of CW for that bad shot and Olivia Miles of ND when she put up two or three circus shots against us---her coach was calming and reassuring, while Geno comes across as non-negotiable and excoriating. It has come to pass that perhaps his team is not responding very well to his directives... As a coach, I think you either have to change your methodology to fit your players or change players to fit your methodology... [/QUOTE]
