It's pretty clear that's the sort of structure and expectation he has in mind.

Shocking concept, isn't it? The GM/coach have mutual respect and trust each other to do their jobs, and yet aren't so detached as to not know what's going on with the operation. The GM scouts, acquires, and signs the best players...and the coach gets the best out of them.
