I get that it's "his" and he wants to make sure it reflects his vision. But much like the HC I worked for, you hire good people, and at some point you have to allow them to do their job.

I can't decide if coaches just naturally have this uber control freak thing or the more successful coaches get there by being control freaks and had to adapt to that personality from guys or women they started off as assistants for.
