Yeah, he's 31 years old going on 45 or so, if you know what I mean.
He's not your typical 31 year old coach. He's a prodigy, fellas.
His age is just an irrelevant number, if you ask me. What does matter is that McVay seems to have "it".
He's impressing both present and former players no end. From Aaron Donald to Jackie Slater and everybody in between.
Imaginative
Technique driven
Strong communicator with players, coaches, and media alike.
Energy
Enthusiasm
Believes in teaching players via his coaches
Resume includes developing so-so players into stars
Smart enough and respected enough to hire outstanding asst coaches
The anti Fisher, huh?
I think that the McVay hire was nothing less than a HR. His team will be respectable this first year. And by his second year, nobody will want to play his teams.
Like I said, the 31 year old thing is irrelevant in his case. He's special...
