From the Don McPherson interview in CNY Sports Magazine:
"Coach Mac said years ago that when you’re a young coach, you think it’s 80% coaching and 20% players. Then you get a little bit more mature and you think it’s a 50-50 thing. Then when you get older and you really know what you’re doing, you realize it’s 90% players and 10% coaching. And it’s true. When you do your job well as a coach and the players buy into what you’re talking about, they start to set the tone."
