Re: Drive Coach Strategies/Ideas

Everything that Bob just said, with one additional tidbit. When you have contingency plans for when things go wrong, or aren't working. Know where your threshold is for "wrong". Keeping track of things like how much time is left, and how much time does it take to complete task X, and then do I have enough time to accomplish task X, yes/no, then ok do it or no go do task Y instead.

I personally think that coaches should be watching the alliance as a whole and not their individual robots. I also am a firm believer in that their can only be one person in charge of the overall alliance. If a fluid adjustment needs to be made there should be one person making that decision. That way their is not any arguing between the coaches. Have that decision made a head of time.

Unless you are in eliminations and you are the alliance captain you really have no mandate to tell other teams what they HAVE to do. So when, not if when, another team deviates from strategy a gentle reminder and inquiry is in order but you can't make them change. At that point you just adjust to the new situation and make the best of it that you can.
