Interview 6/21/15

Head Coach Leroy Pinckney

Q: You've played many games as a player. What was it like preparing for your debut as a Head Coach? Were you nervous?

A: Preparing for my coaching debut was different in a lot of ways but one thing remained constant: the jitters! I did a lot of research and studying to make sure that I was up to the task.

 

Q: How different was it for you in-game as a coach rather than a player?

A: Having to manage game situations is really different from the coaching side. As a player, you just line up and play. Coaching is a lot more involved.

 

Q: Now that your first win is in the books, what do you plan to do differently if anything?

A: I plan on continuing to be a student of the game as well as a teacher. Nothing but experience can prepare you for what lies ahead.

 

Q: The Broncos are a good team, how much film did you watch in preparation, to be able to hold them to 7 points?

A: The coaching staff And I watch endless film to try and gain an advantage over our opponents. We will continue to do so. I ask my players to be unselfish and versatile. I think they do a good job of that.

 

Q: What can pirates fans expect from the team moving forward?

A: Pirates fans can expect a hard nosed fight to the end type of football team. Win, lose or draw we are coming and not backing down!
