[QUOTE="LibertyTurns, post: 465364, member: 789"] [USER=2299]@lv20gt[/USER] I agree we need to do something & I’m not saying we should hang onto coaches forever when a program becomes mired in the muck. What I was trying to say is a head coaching change is not the panacea some make it out to be. It could very well be what the doc has ordered for short term purposes. Long term a much different approach is needed. We need a strategy, with buy in from the top. Once in my career I took a new job because leadership was extremely disatisifed with the results & direction of the division. They supposedly liked my ideas, seemed like a great fit, etc until about a month after I took over and they told me in not so many words that what they really wanted was a guy that didn’t rock the boat and would just go with the flow like my predecessor did but would do a much better job at it so they could get the results they demanded without me needing any support. It’s not like there were no changes that could get implemented that would boost performance, it’s just there’s a limit to what was possible pushing the rock up the same hill a different route. I believe this is how I’d feel if I were a coach at GT. I’m not one so I don’t know what they think. Just my armchair fan perspective of our overall problem. [/QUOTE]
