[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 757355, member: 2299"] There are situations where it can be useful. For practice it's a good way to prevent lack of effort or lack of attention to detail. For games it can be used to make it clear that some things are just 100% completely unacceptable (and no, that doesn't include turnovers). I'm talking things like Attaochu throwing a forearm at the VT QB, or that miami WR squirting the UL WR (or maybe it was a UGA WR and someone I dunno). It can be useful for things like that, but it's generally not a tool used to fix mistakes like not recognizing a DB dropped or confusing coverage or taking a bad angle. The are other things to consider like is that type of behavior only ever is effective if it is consistent with the coach's general style. No matter how the coach approaches the game, if he has to fake something, the players will pick up on it, and it will lose it's effectiveness. If CPJ suddenly went and tried to hype up a player with platitudes and build him up that way it wouldn't have the same effect as if Collins does it. It also depends on the player. There are occasionally guys who certain coaches have a good enough relationship with that also have the mentality of being able to use anger in the right away. It's not as common as people think though and it's not always about motivation. Players can often make bad decisions while angry and even if it sparks them to fix one problem it can lead to others. So in short, no, not really. When it does it is usually more effective in practice. [/QUOTE]
