Message: [QUOTE="cliftonparksufan, post: 5362507, member: 9"] I think back to when Red, and other first time coaches get hired, like Gerry, for example. They step up to the podium and talk about how they want to do this and do that. Then, eventually, they have to check their ego at the door. They realize they need a strong coaching staff to recruit, to teach, to babysit. They need a strong support staff, and now a GM, an analytics person, and someone who can help open the doors to the big donors, whether local businessmen or alumni. Coaching is not just about X's and O's. They effectively need to be CEO's and develop lists like yours and put plans in place with trusted advisors to ensure their priorities are able to be accomplished. There can't be a three year or five year plan. It basically is a 60 to 120 day plan. And they need to check off every box on their list. [/QUOTE]
