re: Many posters say the program's culture is deficient, but few define the problem or cure.

when you stumble into a guy like Burrow, he makes the team about the team. there is a group identity

when guys like that aren't around, the culture seems to be individual-centric thinking to an extreme degree

the problem recruiter-first coaches like O run into is how to mix being a player's coach with creating a team atmosphere. it doesn't seem that O can do this very well on his own. Miles started out well with the team concepts but the wheels eventually fell off (he started the whole "3 years and NFL" culture that O claimed he could fix)
