I'm still not totally sold on Gulutzan and Browna's post is very insightful as to why. Although credit to Gulutzan his system has taken hold in recent weeks and yielded results, I still feel like the motivational side of coaching is really missing here. I know some people say that's all on the players but I don't buy that.
