I have had coaches do most those things. Did not turn me in to an elite player. I thought some fans on this boards were against real coaching and just wanted coaches to let young guys play how they wanted even if they did not play defense or play their position correctly?
Anyway if you guys want to say Laf is playing better because he is getting better coaching more power to you. I like our coaches a lot so we can give them all the credit if you want. I disagree and feel Laf should get the credit if he plays better but I'm flexible if you want to give the coaches credit instead of Laf.
