Message: [QUOTE="njcuse, post: 1644536, member: 580"] I said this a few days ago, and I will say it again, based on my 100 years of teaching. The sub teacher is not the teacher. He/she may be very good, impressive even; the kids may like the sub, respect the sub, listen and participate, but they know in the end, the sub is not running the show. I don't think I ever missed three days in a row, but even if I were out nine days, the classes and the show were still mine. The students knew I would be back, and that they would be subject to my style, my expectations, and my standards. Hop may have some growing pains as a head coach, but I believe he will do just fine once everyone knows he is running the show. I hope he stays with the zone as his primary defense; I have learned to love the zone as the iconic SU defense. But whatever direction he takes, I am confident he will be a solid coach. JB did not enter the Hall of Fame after his first nine games. [/QUOTE]
