I guess I'm a little reserved in my excitement. In fairness i do not know that much about Mr. Langsdorf. Could you or anyone else expand on why you are excited about this hire?
Transitioning from a first time head coarch, with a first time OC and first time DC - to a tenured HC, with an OC that has almost 10 years of experience in that role. Many of the largest complaints over the last few years have been the lack of experience on the staff - the inability to fix the issues that have plagued us. Well, we have the experience now. That in itself is a big reason to be optimistic about the hires.
I agree. From all the research and videos I've been seeing, they all talk about a real family atmosphere among the coaches. It's not lip service or a dysfuncational family environment, which is good to hear. There is a lot of genuine respect for each other in what they can do, and how they work together with the student athletes. It's kind of important consideration when putting together the base core of your staff.
