True. Coaching is an incredibly tough profession with a mix of tactics, recruiting, leadership, team building, executive skill and hard work. Not everyone can succeed and not everyone can succeed in all situations. It takes a lot of skills to come together in a system, which is why Jerome would have benefited from an apprenticeship - the kind he is getting now.
I couldn't tell directly, but he seemed to have issues in executive skill (Italy trip), tactics (atrocious D and clueless offense), and recruiting (getting a solid PG). There were positive glimmers in each area, but overall a sad outcome.
Still, he's a hero to me as a player and human. Hoping for better coaching days ahead for him.
