As a coach, it takes time to mesh with the rest of the staff and the players. It will take some time, but the players are starting to understand what he expects.

We feel we addressed positions where we have immediate needs. All of these guys are expected to come in and compete for starting positions right away.
coming felt game sit time
We felt like coming into the game that if he has a lot of time to sit back there, he can be pretty accurate. If he doesn't have a lot of time, he can be not so accurate.
