I like that he forces players to do a self-assessment before he gives him his thoughts the next day. Often you don't even have to say anything to a guy, he'll own it and tell you exactly what you're going to talk to him about.
The only thing I worry about is if you had a team with a lot of young guys and little veteran leadership, but thankfully we've got guys like Gio, Stajan, Brouwer, Backlund, etc. to talk to guys about things if they're freaking out.
All in all, I think it's totally professional to wait to the next day.
