From the Sirius interview w Panthers S Kurt Coleman:
- McDermott is not going to be outworked. Always at the facility, would seem him working out at 5am (Yes - our new coach works out). I would think "I can't let the coach out work me!"
- Gil: "He's a teacher, not a hollerer. I was impressed with him" KC: "He kept telling me YOU can play this game, be smart, work hard, make plays. It always stuck with me."
- Marvez: "Did you see him grow as a coach?" KC: Tremendously. Very receptive to listening to the players, he wants to try and understand your point of view. And if he agrees, he'll make changes - a lot of coaches won't do that,"
