i never said that the obstructing robot would sit still because it definitely won't hence why bumpers are mandatory, i just don't picture, with or without robocoach help, a team being able to recover well from hitting an obstacle.
i can only envision a few teams being able to pull this off the entire season let alone first few weeks
