In my mind, he was a superb coach. I grew up with a dad who was very, very rough around the edges, authoritarian (correct spelling?) and intimidating, but he instilled a resiliance in me.

Unfortunately this is probably going to be his legacy and I will never understand why he didn't speak out against it
