![]() Do pro players who go on to be coaches usually do well or no?
This comes from: I've heard Gretzky has been disappointing as a coach, and I'm not so sure about Ron Wilson, but I don't know enough to tie the laces of an opinion...

![]() In proper football its a hit and miss ratio for successful players being managers. Some have done both but the teams who have had continued success have been managed by managers with less than distinguished playing records.

![]() I read this one trainer's theory that people who aren't star athletes (but are trained athletes) have had to compensate by
learning more strategy, management, training, etc. than "natural" athletes do.

Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson & Isiah Thomas have been horrible coaches & GM. Larry Bird, Jerry West, Bobby Clarke, & Mario Lemieux have all enjoyed great success at it. Babe Ruth would have given up all his records he ever achieved just to be given a chance to manage a MLB team. He was never given the opportunity because he was shit at managing his own life, let alone a team. There's really no correlation from athlete to coach. It's an acievement unto it's own. |
