It’s tough though - cause in the end anything he says can still be turned around on the team.

He says I should have done a better job preparing them for the third - follow up becomes about what issues mentally is the team having that they need that extra push.

Same thing if he says he should call a time out to calm the guys down - next question becomes about the teams mental fragility again.

Safest thing for him to do here is stand behind the guys, say stick to the course, and give the media nothing.

Agree that I would like something more there but I get why he framed everything how he did.
