Use a simple example such as, I want to get 1ID and 1OD pop total, 1 pop when guy is 18, 1 pop when he is 25 (arbitrary numbers). Say at 18 it takes 1 week for the ID pop, 2 weeks for the OD pop. At age 25, training slows 50%.

So we have 2 options: Train 2 weeks OD at 18, and 2 weeks ID at 25, for total of 4 weeks to get 2 pops.

Or

Train 1 week ID at 18 for a pop, train 1 week OD at 18 for half a pop, and train 2 weeks OD at 25 to finish the pop, again 4 weeks.


I don't agree with the 50% being all because the height would make the effect less than 50%. Again this is a theory that I'm trying to prove with cottrell.

I have a theory that with the cross training effect being in place that training secondaries are going to be rewarded by primaries not being slowed down. We'll see when Cottrell and guys like steven call are 24 if i'm right.

Right, you didn't mention it. But if you're *campaigning* on it, it means that there must be something you plan to do that others aren't doing.


Since I've been following the NT there hasn't been a manager that went out into the community anywhere near what I am willing to do. Jfarb would be the last manager to do so.

To dozens of managers... You are saying that even though you haven't ever mentored anyone (not even when jfarb was desperately asking for mentors), and you aren't currently mentoring anyone, now you will start mentoring 50 managers at once. That seems... unbelievable?


You didn't read what i wrote... this is where the staff comes in. They can do what they have always done, i just think it would help to have the NT coach personally deliver it to create more of a pipeline in the community. Lets be honest though... Mentoring isn't that challenging of a task. I was 7-1 2 seasons ago in div II.1 and had i not decided to switch gears and start training cottrell I would be a top team in that league and most likely would have won it this season instead of mfork (no offense if he reads this) I am very comfortable and confident in my ability to build a team and to help other managers do so.
