Thanks John. Cool to get this kind of on site reports.

I think Randy needs a little grace to find his stride and some support from us, the fans. He’s a professional and wants nothing more than to be effective and help the team win. He deserves the benefit of the doubt that he’s giving his all and won’t stop trying to improve. The fact is that if he can’t get better, he will move down or out so what we say in the meantime doesn’t matter. Our constant doubt and criticism really doesn’t help him be his best or get better. What would you say to him if you were his coach or his Dad? Do you think shame and humiliation will push him to give his best? Is writing him off and starting over the best play? None of you would want that for someone you care about. Because of how he supports them, Rocco’s players believe what they are doing is worth their best effort (and happens to be each of their lifelong dreams). They each know their role and how it fits into the success of their mission to win and they believe their Manager authentically cares about their personal and professional development. Rocco has shown that consistently. Those are the building blocks of a great culture where the team comes first and everyone gives ALL of their discretionary effort. Don’t sell Rocco’s coaching style short because we grew up with the ruthless treatment that had us perform out of fear. Let it sort out and we will have the success we want and build a dynasty at the same time. Oh, and get behind Randy just like you would if you knew him personally.
