Interesting that some think the coach walking out is cooling off, others the coach heating up.
Over the years, I have mostly heard letting the coach come to you if they really want something and thereby not conceding that there is anything to discuss. Part of that is the concept of staying in “our turf”, not theirs. Except a few steps to maintain distance back to position.
Yes, it depends on the case, who the coach is, how they are acting, etc. And I agree, usually, with “I know what I'm going to say, I'd rather the coach get a chance to think how they are going to act.”
