Gone are the days when most players could be motivated by fear. Today’s athlete generally still needs their coach to be demanding, but it’s probably more important that they know their coach believes in them and has their back.
Players will run through a brick wall for this type of coach. KSU is lucky imo to have two staffs full of them. Basketball for sure. I’m also sure Prime has some “bad guy” coaches on his staff.
I read somewhere about Prime being very egotistical and chasing ego. I don’t really see him that way. I think he is supremely confident — not fake and cocky — and that he has an abundance to offer. And he should be like that, he’s been one of the best in the world at anything he’s done.
