Daniel,
Thank you for the kind words. Coaching at FIRST events is a very refining experience if you let it be. It takes a lot of energy, passion, humility and self control to coach at a high level, especially with Aerial Assist. I am no where near the level of coaching quality where I would like to be, and I continue to make mistakes and have to apologize for my actions. I am continually grateful that my students have me as their Drive Coach.
Also, I will second that Rob Jenkins is the MAN! That guy was amazing to work with, and definitely has a "Teams First" mentality. Makes me want to play in Michigan
Daniel, I saw you working the Field Crew and recognized you from CD, but never introduced myself. I'll have to find you next year!
