Originally posted by Unregistered View PostTrick one. NEFC built what they have with passionate people that believe in the program. Now that it is established they can go south if someone comes in and run it as if they are running a business. If he embraces the opportunity and become one of them, he will succeed. If he comes in just because it is a money grab and business, it can be a problem. Including losses of good coaches.
He is a decent coach, but seems to have been burnt out of actual coaching and shifted toward administration. I don't know how you are defining his 'success' in Florida but he had started to rely more heavily on those below him to do the actual coaching.
What NEFC did that was good was to grab the Breakers from the Bolts, the latter clearly showing that they are not really sure how to run a girls program and still rely on the same Scorpion hack to lead.....only.....the Scorpion girls have been going downhill for the last 5 years now, while Stars stay on top, and NEFC and GPS move up.

I'd like to hear feedback from parents whose kid was coached by this guy. Good experience or not?
