His tough guy act is getting really old, and it would be nice if we could turn on the TV once in a while and just have him be his charismatic self like he is when the cameras are off and the reporters arent in the room. The tough guy act is easier to swallow when you have the record to back it up, a la Nick Saban, but he doesn't right now.
I think he should be laughing and joking around with the press, especially during a week of practice in preparation for a game. Maybe share some specifics on gameplan and personnel questions that get asked every time he sits down. "How do you plan to stop player X?" "Well, every time he's in the game and they are in single back formation, we are going to run X on defense." That sort of thing. The "We'll work our best to stop him because he's a great player" BS needs to stop. Less "football coach" and more "friend".
Meh. I’d honestly prefer if he were MORE of a football coach.
