Haz and leadership

Any coach can try as much and as hard as he wants to make someone a leader. It just don\'t happen. The guys on the teams pick the leaders in one way or another. It\'s the same 2 old sayings - leaders are born not made & there and leaders and then there are followers. Haz & co can try anything they want, but there\'s always gonna be a few leaders and the rest will be followers. All head coaches are control freaks to a degree. They have to be or they wouldn\'t be here. I don\'t think Haz over does it at all. Truth is, we really have only an inkling of what goes on in the locker room and between the players and players & players and coaches. Being vocal doesn\'t automatically make you a leader. Sometimes, it just makes you a whiner. These coaches know their careers depend on whether or not this team is successful. They\'re not going to try and sabotage it on purpose. A player/person either fits the team the coach wants or they don\'t. Bottom line...\"play by my rules, or go.\"
