So, a question to team coaches. Would wearing a mic cramp your style? Yes, of course it would but would it be overwhelming? What if you could hear yourself first then decide to turn in tape ?

At the CT Regional, a group followed 5 teams around on camera for a video they were making for the new science center. My team was one of those teams. They decided to focus everything through one perspective, so they chose me as the main person on my team since I'm the team president and the drive team coach.
After following me (and the rest of the team) for Friday and half of Saturday with their cameras and microphones, they finally hooked me up to a wireless mic for alliance selections and elimination rounds. I think they took it off of me just before the finals, which they probably regretted since we were pretty energetic through the finals.
I have to say, the mic didn't bother me; I barely noticed it. I acted like I always do while coaching. I'm sure a few silly things probably ended up on there... like our conversation before a match about if the mic was recording all the time or not. It would be interesting to listen to a tape of all the funny stuff that happened that day, and the energy as the day progressed.
