Your post is absolutely mind boggling. Why would you even ask this question? Do you really think Pike keeps his players guessing? Do you really think Pike is hiding from his players what he wants from them? Do you think our Assistant Coaches don’t talk to the players?Does pike lets his players know how he sets accountability? He should let everyone know up front what is expected and what he will do toward the expected. Don’t leave them guessing.
Every good coach on every level COMMUNICATES with their team as a whole, and individually with each player. All of the time. This is coaching 101.
