Our Reading
The habit of blaming others gets a new name.
Coaches blaming their staff for poor performance is not a new trend.
Willard’s comments are just another example of a leader deflecting responsibility.
It’s not about the staff, it’s about the coach’s own accountability.
Willard’s outburst is a classic case of “it’s not me, it’s them.”
