[QUOTE="TromboneJacket, post: 810958, member: 2580"] Two thoughts immediately pop up for me about this. The first is that Dabo has shown that he wants the best for his players and staff over a long period of time, so when he asks them to do things that are difficult and, for lack of a better word, painful, they’re willing to comply because they trust that he wouldn’t ask them to do things that won’t help them in the future. My other thought is about team cultures that crack the whip more in general. Bill Belichick has had a lot of success with that in the past, and some players are just suited to that kind of environment in general, but he’s been under increasing scrutiny because lack of success tends to cause such a culture to crumble quicker than a “fun” culture. It’s easy to go all-in and make sacrifices when you’re sure it will pay off, but what if you’re not sure? Who wants to put everything they have into something, get screamed at constantly, get no recognition for their accomplishments, and then still lose games? Granted, the NFL has the salary cap factor, and college football doesn’t. And maybe Belichick has the right of it, and guys like Pete Carroll are wrong, but it’s food for thought. [/QUOTE]
