Ever since I have been Involved with CRT 306, the drive couch has been a student. For our team this person, is someone that know the rules front to back. It is someone who can watch every element of the game while playing a match, and know how to change the strategy if need be. It is also someone who knows the robot almost inside and out and knows its abilities. It is also someone the the drivers will listen to, and if the drives don't isn't afraid to give them a little head slap to get them to listen.
As it has been said every team is different, everyone operates a different way, what work for one may not work for another. This topic comes up every year, and every year it is the same thing. Do what works best for your team.

This past season I did get the chance to be behind the wall again for the first time since I was drive coach in 2007. Our couch because dreadfully ill, and the drive team wasn't comfortable with any of the other students, and voted me in. As cool as it was I remembered how stressful it is behind that wall, I will leave it to the students. This year we are making sure we have back ups for everything because you never know what can happen.
