I posted two for only one reason really..
Basically, last year with 2 coaches.. on coach direcly "coached" the driver/operator.. the other coach was in charge of strategy & talking strategy before the match, and then keeping everyone on task during the match (calling out strategy changes, etc). It wasn't really necessary for two last year imho.
This year with only one, we could do all that, but tracking the score during a match, on which many strategies depended, became hard.. trying to communicate with your team, your alliance, count the score, watch the time, call changes, etc.. it became hard..
That's the only reason I'd vote for a second coach... I'd be a fan of making it optional.. because I think the # of coaches necessary depends on the game.
