Hitchcock today: "I think as a coach, you have to make a decision. You either want to win or you want to coach, because you can't do both," he said.

Slats did both, Eakins did neither. I don't understand what Hitch means by this statement, anyone out there care to explain?

Simple, is your priority to teach you players to be better and give them opportunities to go out and try to learn. In this case, your inexperienced players are going to cost you.

Or is your priority to win, and just play your best players to give yourself the best chance to win. In which case your inexperienced players aren't going to develop as fast or as much with limited opportunities.

Illegitimi non carborundum.
