Mike Mcdonalds introductory press conference today @ 11 am pst

[FloridaSeahawk18]

Seemed like a nice guy but serious and no nonsense at the same time. Don't expect anyone to be half-ass tackling anybody or they'll be off the team.

It's crystal clear on the free Seattle Sports app.

Every press conference. Every one for the past decade the audio has been horrible. It's a common complaint, and we shouldn't have to download an app when the pressers are being streamed live on YouTube.

Go back and watch any of Pete's postgame pressers. Cannot hear one damn question.

 

[James in PA]

I love what he said in regards to: "You can't just throw the same 3 things at the other team and think ''we're gonna beat you.'"

Yes! That line really jumped out! He said the offenses have gotten too complex to play that way.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Yep. He mentioned that he's not going to try to be something he's not. The players see thru that. He has an expectation and accountability for players. He said they will play a certain way.

For you. I heard it crystal clear on the app.


Adapt and adjust.

I'm not going back and forth with you on this nonsense, but adapt and adjust? Really bro?

Just look in this thread alone and multiple people have said the same damn thing. Seahawks.com stream sucks. Youtube stream sucks.
I doubt very much your app is crystal clear when they are just streaming the same audio.
Cannot hear one question at all. Just trying to guess the questions while the new coach is answering.
Been happening for years. Go read reddit comments, its the same thing. They need to improve their A/V and fire their media team in charge of it, cause thousands of people have complained over the years.

 

[projectorfreak]

He said ALL the right things and pushing in the chairs means he gives a %$&÷ about everything everyone and how it's done
That silly little thing right there told me got the right guy

 

[Jerhawk]

Adapt and adjust.

You can't just listen to the podcast the same way for the past decade. Who do you think you are, Pete Carroll?!

 

[onanygivensunday]

The guy's wicked smart... and very detailed oriented.

He graduated summa sum laude with a bachelor's degree in finance... and he maintained a 4.0 GPA while getting his Masters in Sport Management while also coaching at Georgia.

Dude, lighten up. It was a joke. My god, have a Coke and a smile.
And it does suck if it's not coming out clear. But I'm telling you, it came out crystal clear on the App. Sorry that bothers you so much.

Make it a Diet Coke... and opt for no caffeine.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Diet Pepsi for the win. Can't do coke. The drink.

FWIW, NFL Radio cut away because they couldn't hear the reporter questions. Anyway, so much passion, intensity, and people-focus in Mike Macdonald. I'm even more excited than I was yesterday. Our players are going to love and run through a brick wall for him. Schneider sounded more giddy in that intro than I've ever recalled.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

No doubt, you just get a good vibe from this guy.

 

[Seahawker]

I like him, John did a great job.
Now let's add to the pile with some great assistant coaches.

 

[hoxrox]

Hinting at building team around Geno..did I read too much into that?

It didn’t seem to me that they are on player evaluations yet. They are still trying to fill out the staff. Coordinators and assistants is the next step.

 

[Sun Tzu]

For an introvert he's handling his introduction fairly well

Most of the best leaders I have worked for, with, and who now work for me are introverts. They are great leaders and communicators, and very natural and comfortable in social settings. Those on this site (and everywhere really) who do not understand what introverts and extroverts are should avoid commenting on it. You just sound foolish, unintelligent, and uneducated.

 

[Wheetie]

This is a very, very impressive man. During the process he was my 2nd choice but after hearing his presser today, I couldn't be more ecstatic that he's the Coach moving forward. I questioned his ability to lead before, but I'll eat my words after hearing what he had to say today. I sense his high integrity, honesty, and passion. Really, really good.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Yep, this guy isn't gonna' sugar coat anything. And I highly doubt we see the same undisciplined crap we have seen. Especially after the whistle.

 

[HomerJHawk]

It'll be really nice not to see us constantly in the top 5 or top 10 of the most penalized teams.
