If you read his post today, he admits that people don’t care about what he says.

No he won’t. He didn’t say anything racist or insulting or degrading towards a minority group.
That last comment is spot on. Cook gets his kids prepared. Show me a coach who is up pacing around and yelling instructions to the kids and I'll show you a guy who either (1) must feel like he has to coach effort or (2) is seeing lots of mistakes. Either way, his team is not ready to play. A third reason coaches get off their chair and stomp around is because the coach is nervous or isn't handling his own emotions very well.
This perception that a volleyball coach cannot coach from sitting down is B.S.
Yeah, not reading his post. If he really believed that, why continue? Go do something that matters to someone, somewhere.
I really only see HS VB and those coaches don't do a lot of standing up and yelling and running around. In fact, most sort of sit, then stand up and use their clipboard to hide their hand, they give a signal, they sit back down.
Exactly. What I was eluding to when I mentioned the assistant coaches and was just talking to the wife about the article/comment. The tree has branches
I don't think Coach Pelini adhered to this philosophy.
You just don’t understand.
Reserve basketball coaches are clearly the best coaches because they are shouting the whole time.
By that metric the parents of pee wee wrastlers should be up for nomination of best coaches!
So I did reserve BB (girls) one season and by the 3rd game I was like "Why the **** am I screaming?"...I literally coached the rest of the season from my chair and/or right in front of my chair.
My dream is still to get to coach golf. No yelling, no practice plans, no "defense"...just a bunch of days off.
At what level of golf would you be coaching that there’s no practice plan? Certainly not college
Pelini would get overwhelmed with angst and soon his team would start playing tight in response to their coach. I think the Bo Pelini era was the start of the "here we go again" feel of close games slipping away from the team. I think our won-loss record in OT games started tanking about that same time.
HS golf most likely, except for larger schools, especially girls. There would still be a "practice plan" every day but it is very, very relaxed. And while some drills and range work is done in a group setting, it is mostly individual time. Then go out on the course and play.
That’s not entirely true, Pelini’s last game here was a 37-34 win in OT at Iowa City. A game where they scored 17 points in the 4th to send it to OT.
I got that! I LOVE IT!
It has gotten more "serious" since the first year but it is still amazing!
We probably average two practices a week and we leave school early all the time.
Great point. That game was a complete anomaly though because Bo lost it worse than ever in that one. I feel like Iowa must have done something to help our team get on track. Can't remember...
Have you ever watched the 2-time defending national champion UCONN Huskies play hoops?
I don’t care about volleyball and don’t listen to this fat dipshit lapdog, but the idea that a championship coach must be calm and collected is laughable
Watch every coach in the CFP this weekend
