The players like him as a guy, but they other tahn zJsoh and Cook, I don't think they are motivated by him to excel. Perfect example is Coleman--why on earth would a guy like that, with everyone expecting him to take the next step, would he need to be a healthy scratch multiple times for behavioral issues? Why would it happen even once??
These guys are not inspired by McD, clearly they don't fear him as a leader. I think he's losing the locker room. He's gotta go.
