The comment you are replying to didn't say anything about players being pushed. He was specifically referring to going to the media which I also think is a bad move. I am all for riding a kid who needs the constant motivation. My own kids require it for school work and etc. But embarrassment as motivation is a dangerous game to play in my opinion. It rarely works and gives outsiders a poor opinion of you deserved or not.
You push them in the way that reaches the kid.....Dom has a real good chance of wasting his immense talent if CDT wasn't doing this. I feel like if he doesn't do this then this particular kid will not make it. Calling out his weight loss seems to have worked as he has almost reached those goals set for him.
