    Knows the game of football very well and overall a fun personality. Downside is he does play favorites and isn’t very honest with how to get on the field. Week in, week out, after poor performances, we were told other guys would get opportunities and encouraged competing in practice, this always ended in the same guys starting and no change.

    Players Coach

    I’d say he cares about his position on the team. He deals with the outfield and some aspects of the technology we use for hitting. His outfielding style conflicted with ours of our head coach but I think both have come an agreement of a standard to which they should hold the outfield to. He’s developed into this role well as he’s been able to adapt drills that would cause for more engagement and more of what the players would want to see. He’s very protectant of his outfield which is something I respected. The hitting technology aspect I question his knowledge of but I can tell he tries to learn how one of the tools we use works to the best of his ability. With all of that being said, I never liked approaching him because I truly felt his vibe of not caring for me too much (personally). He has developed close knit and wittier relationships to those he works with often/those who would help bring out his more comfortable side to speak. Basically if you’re not an outgoing outfielder, he’s really not going to develop a relationship with you all that much and defend you against our head coach if you absolutely mess up in the outfield. I also feel like he needs a more outgoing and good conversationalist type person because he’s a bit awkward talking to at first. Not sure if it’s shyness or what but it’s fairly quick and to the point answers as if he doesn’t actually want to talk with you. He also tries to be motivational and I feel like I appreciate his efforts but not going to lie his analogies are a bit interesting and out there almost as if you have to say something completely random and out there to grab someone’s attention and then tell them the main point of the story. He does say them even in the darkest of games so that much I do appreciate because even if it wasn’t meant to be necessarily funny, I consider it to be a light-hearted motivational talk.
