Itâs not rocket science, but I like that he jumped all over this question. He knows what that first game means. He specifically mentioned recruiting in his answer.
It will be an interesting trivia question down the line that Coach Albin started his Charlotte, NC coaching career not at Richardson Stadium but at BoA. Would be a good one for Niners bar trivia or the Niners-themed Trivial Pursuit game whenever that is made.
The clip of him addressing the team - there he is in his element - heâs going to win them over and bring in new guys that will buy in as well - everything else then takes care of itselfâŚ
Iâve been in bank/financial sales for 30+yrsâŚthe hardest thing to do is hire someone.
BecauseâŚall professional salesmen can sellâŚespecially themselves. It says nothing about their work ethic or drive or motivation or organization or abilityâŚtheyâre just good talkersâŚgood at knowing how to say exactly what you want to hear.
There have been more times than I can count that we hire someone that absolutely crushed and nailed the interviewâŚbut then were terrible at their job.
Football can be similar to sales. Our last 2 coaches could talk and nailed the interview but couldnât perform worth sh!t. This hire was made due to his performance not on his interview skills.
The passion in his voice is refreshing. You can tell he was a bit nervous and I donât blame him. Once he got to talking about football he was smoother. Got a chance to chat with him after the press conference and the dude had me ready to go play. Just absolutely thrilled.
His wife is also super nice! Sounds like they want a house on a lake!
