This is a wonderful interview. Informative. Passionate. Just Plain Fun!
People don't talk like this much anymore. Even in what could be considered criticism, Jimmy offers supportive wording. Ex: in his discussion with Gabe around the 5-6 minute mark, he comments briefly on each and every one of the Aggie offensive linemen. When he got to the OTs, Green and Moore, he simply said, "They're both having a tough year."
The gist of that message comes through loud and clear, but Jimmy does it graciously and, in a way, hopefully. It's in stark contrast with the vernacular of the day where folks say some brutal things sometimes, particularly on-line. It's easy to hide behind screen names and spout blunt words like that; Jimmy's word are what can be spoken face-to-face. I can very much envision the former coach sitting down with one of his players and making this statement, but behind it all is something very "Aggie" to me: honesty yet with encouragement, a pinch of hope-to-get-better. Inferred in all this is the notion of, "I'm your coach, and I'm here to help you do that: get better. Together, we're gonna get you better at your position."
We call learn a thing or two - or twenty! - from Jimmy Wright. Gig'em, Coach!
