Think about the role of coaches in typical sports, whether its football, baseball, basketball, an Olympic sports team, etc.

Who are they? What role do they fulfill? What roles don't they fulfill? What do they bring to the position that makes them beneficial to the team? Why not have one of the current players be the coach?
