This is the kind of thing that facinates me about moving up to "the next level". I think the key to this whole discussion was how the seasoned D-1 guy read his partner and was able to get the ball-watching point across in an effective manner. I would be willing to bet he doesn't use that method on everyone. Using the Holiday Inn line works on some people, but not others. The key is knowing when to use it. At some level, I think we all have essentially the same judgement, skills, and rules knowledge, but what helps the better ones move up is their ability to handle people.
