So I would say he has proven that he can switch his strategy.

Now I have no explanation why he did not going into this year like other coaches but it may be that we had swung so far the speed/ small ball direction, that he just didn't have the players to completely do it. Cohen easily gets one more year but needs to make some large scale changes. I think he will do that. We will have to wait and see.
Good post. I agree. Let's see what the Intense Bastard can do.
