Pretty lame article that jumps around and doesn't dig deeper into each argument. This guy reminds me of most ex-coaches-turned-commentator. They know their stuff but can't express it clearly. As far as this article is concerned, the most I got out of it was the point that a coach is like a CEO. I think that's true now more than ever. Think about how many people are on the staff of a team. It's a small army. The coach has to communicate w/50 subordinates on top of communicating with the players. That's why the coordinators are so important. They act as the project leaders of their groups and report back to the coach. Ross Perot knew the importance of getting the top people around him that he could delegate to.
