‘You have to show your team you have the ability to make those key decisions if you want to lead. Mularkey has not done that. Key decisions are not cutting Bobby Shaw. That’s not a statement or a tough move; it’s just a token that’s supposed to set an example. The problem is not all on Mularkey. He’s a rookie coach who is feeling his way through the process of learning how to lead his players and make those decisions. Now he’s got exactly the same record Gregg Williams had through his first six games, and in 2001 Williams had far less talent.’
