Feedback on coach interaction

[Tio]

I am not a big fan of the stop sign. It works for some and that is great.

If you have a coach that wants to be a fourth member of your crew, I would say "Coach, you are distracting us from doing our job." "I am happy to answer your questions/concerns, but we can't have a conversation on every play."

The key is that the behavior needs to be addressed. Find your style and what works best for you. In general, if you are "mad" at a coach, you probably let things go too far.
