He didn't use the word "MVP" but he did say Morgan was the best player on the team. He was asked to give mid season report cards and he used wine as an analogy... I can't remember all of them but...
Stewie - her numbers are down from last year - but she's like a really good bottle that needs time to improve with age...
Moriah has just been fantastic. Morgan is the best player on the team. Kia Nurse has been really really good. Stokes has given them great things on defense but still has so much potential. Williams has surprised them with things she can do - said she's like a good bottle of wine with a lot of potential and you really don't know just how good it will end up being...
Overall really glowing comments on the team.
One other thing I found interesting were the questions regarding other coaches, even in the American. I may get some of this wrong because I watched it last night but basically - other people want his opinion a lot - BUT only if it's the same opinion as they have.
He said he has conversations all the time with coaches about how to make their teams better, but the other coaches don't want to hear about it because they "don't agree". When the coaches of the AAC get together, there is a lot of discussion on how to improve the league and individual teams, but some coaches just don't want to hear about, or do, what he suggests.
The last part leads me to believe there may be some improvement of certain teams in the AAC, but others will remain permanently mired in mediocrity. Overall I thought it was a really good show and Kerith was able to get him to talk about things we don't usually hear about...
