... from Indy Star's Osterman.
"He doesn’t prevaricate with his players, and his honesty seems to connect with them. Now 63 years old, he doesn’t give the impression of a coach who feels he has anything to prove, nor one who values performative coaching over straightforward assessment.
On Sunday, as his sports information director tried to call a full lid on his postgame news conference, someone in the room crammed in one more question, asking Woodson about Kopp’s status after exiting early with an ankle injury. Kopp only played three minutes and didn’t return after limping off. Woodson chuckled, looked the questioner in the eye and said, “Shit, he’ll be alright.”"
Loved Woody back in the day. Looks like he both learned well from his coach, and is teaching well. I'm liking it.
