It's hard, or you wouldn't like it. A lot of coaches really don't like what they're doing.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I like playing. I wouldn't be a good coach. I don't have the patience to be a coach.
As a player, I can tell them they don't want to rush to become a coach, because there is a lot that goes on. This is all something new to me. You can talk to a lot of the coaches... and they can tell you. Until you go through it, then you can understand what it's all about.
I coach a few guys and they work very, very hard, but in our day we did it because we just loved it.
I think I have some ideas on coaching, but listen, coaches work harder than players. The hours they put in, the headaches that they have. That's the one thing I've never liked about coaching. They have all the emotion, passion and preparation without actually getting to be able to dictate what happens.
I've had hard coaches all my life.
All I can say is that I'm going to try to coach the way I've coached in the past. And if it ends up not being good enough, then so be it.
The thing that drives most coaches out of coaching in college is they get tired of the grind of recruiting.
Coaching is easy. Winning is the hard part.
I do think coaches need to get away from the game more, though. It's good for them.
Really, coaching is simplicity. It's getting players to play better than they think that they can.
