Re: What if FIRST changed back to 2 coaches?

I don't think that the game requires two coaches; one can handle the job by himself. Any extra, unnecessary people in the booth would just cause confusion. You also run into the very real possibility of conflicting orders.
Another thing I don't understand is why the coach, alone out of all of the drive team, is allowed to be an adult. It's mandatory for high school students to do all the other jobs. Does FIRST not think that we can handle it? I think that the entire drive team should be students. The goal of FIRST is to promote science and technology to students, not engineers.
