If a coach starts to bring up something that happened in a previous game, just say, "coach, I'd love to offer my advice, but I was simply not there. Can't call what I didn't see." Most coaches get the hint after that. |
True.
Still, if they do approach me I try to keep to a pleasant
brief response.
I don't want the other coach wondering what we are talking about.
