045 Step by step
"Bang!"
Lu Yiqi threw the office door panel heavily on it, and the dull sound echoed throughout the corridor, as if he could feel the wooden door panel making painful moans. The strong tail force made the door panel tremble slightly, and it would be possible to fall apart with just a little more force.
It is enough to clearly convey the final result of the tactical meeting between Lu Yiqi and Latimer without language, which is enough - obviously the situation is a bit intense.
Lu Yiqi turned around and walked two steps towards the attacking team office. He saw a figure facing him. He had to brake urgently, and almost hit the other side head-on.
"Hey hey, my Italian-style concentrate. Be careful! This is an office area, not a training ground, there is no need to rush around. Don't you know that I have relied on this Italian-style concentrate all morning? This is the energy to continue my vitality! Energy!"
"You know how bad the coffee machine in our office is. The coffee is like a monkey peeing. I made a detour to the coffee house four streets away and bought it. I was ready to match my croissant! I only have this little hope every morning."
"If it just spills like this, would I have to run again? No, I will never drink the terrible cat pee coffee in our office! Pay attention! Please pay attention to your behavior, okay? You are no longer a reckless high school student!"
Talk about it.
Long-lasting.
No need to look up, you know that this must be the team's physical coach Isaac Burns. The machine gun chattering is his signature. The team has experienced it from top to bottom. No one can compete with it. One sentence can lead to endless endlessness. The only solution is:
escape!
Lu Yiqi's "sorry" that had come to his mouth before he could say it, but he was interrupted by Isaac forcibly instilling a lot of words - he was still facing Latimer at the last moment, but he started facing Isaac at the next moment?
Lu Yiqi now felt dizzy and had the urge to vomit, but if he could, he would rather go back to the defensive office to face Latimer than stand here to face Isaac. So he made a wise choice, left a "sorry", turned around and left.
"Why are you running again? Do we have no regulations? You can't run in the corridor. God, he is just a child. Seeing what nonsense I am talking about, he is just a child. I really feel that I should change my job, the job target is a child, and the colleagues are a child. What is this happening..."
All those whispers were left behind. Even if they were talking to themselves, Isaac could talk for a long time.
Lu Yiqi turned his head and saw that he had maintained a safe distance, so he shouted, "The Italian-style condensed is about to cool down."
"Oh. My Italian-style condensed!" Isaac's depressed scream came from behind.
Lu Yiqi quickly accelerated his pace, turned around and left the office building area. He subconsciously took out a candy from his pocket, peeled it off, threw it into his mouth, and chewed it viciously, as if he was chewing on the enemy's body, and his rapidly beating heart slowly calmed down.
Crack Crack Crack.
Crack Crack Crack.
When I walked outside, the air mixed with fresh water vapor in the Kansas River came to my face. The summer heat in late summer was still left in the corners of Manhattan in early September. It didn't have time to dissipate, which slowly made the turbid air in my chest, and the shoulder and jaw lines relaxed.
At this time, Lu Yiqi's mouth rose slightly, and a hint of relief appeared in his eyes: Very good, everything goes according to the plan.
The situation just now was actually the result of Lu Yiqi's careful calculation and careful arrangement.
Judging from the relationship over the past year, Latimer is a coach who sticks to principles, has rigid thinking and lacks flexibility - not about his personal, but about his tactics and overall tactical layout still follows the traditional routine accumulated by NCAA over the years, lacking tactical changes and changes, which is also reflected in the defensive tactical style:
All the same and stable, and the rules are average; more trustworthy than tactics.
In fact, Ron Press also tried to adjust his defensive tactics last year, but the defensive part was not Price's strength. During the discussion and conception process, Latimer successfully convinced Pres, making Pres realize that his defensive tactics were not perfect enough, so he postponed the change.
The current overall tactical framework is still the legacy of the Schneider era.
This also means that as interim head coach Lu Yiqi, it is extremely difficult to persuade Latimer to change his tactics as soon as he comes up.
Lu Yiqi knew that his chances might be very, very slim.
But the difference between Lu Yiqi and Pres is that Lu Yiqi's understanding of defensive tactics is clearer and more advanced. He has a complete and clear tactical idea that can compete with Latimer's tactical theory and always stick to his own position. In the second half of the first game, he changed the tactics and achieved success on the spot, which is enough to become the first motivation to leverage and change the situation.
However, Lu Yiqi needed a tactic to convince Latimer.
First, make a very, very excessive request to provoke the other party and stimulate the other party, and directly break through the other party's bottom line unreasonably.
Secondly, make a relatively less excessive request to convince the other party, so that the other party can understand that this seems not as terrible as imagined.
"To completely change the basic formation of the entire defensive front line" is a condition that Latimer would never accept; "break the existing tactical functions of linebackers" is also a change that Latimer cannot accept in a short period of time... In comparison, "requiring the linebacker to stand in front" is not that shocking, and Lu Yiqi finally made Latimer accept this change.
This is a gradual process. Lu Yiqi needs to complete changes step by step. At the same time, he also needs the players to accept changes step by step. He cannot become fat in one bite. This is true for Latimer, and so for players. Therefore, Lu Yiqi can accept such changes.
As an interim head coach who only led the team to complete a game, Lu Yiqi was able to make Latimer accept a little change, which was very rare. This was also the goal he set for himself before going to the defensive team office today - in the end, he successfully achieved it.
Although this is my plan, and although this has been expected in advance, Lu Yiqi's chest tightness is real: Latimer's stubbornness is really a headache.
It's not that Lu Yiqi insists that his tactics must be correct; he just hopes that Latimer can open up the possibility of the team's progress.
They can sit down and discuss in depth together. If his tactics are wrong or have loopholes, then they will improve together and finally work together to find the key to victory. This is what the coaching staff needs to do the most - but Latimer refused. This is the most depressing part.
