DEL.ICIO.USPaul Johnson goes deep … on the power of perception
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Simple question for Paul Johnson yesterday. Complex answer, as would be expected.
Q: Now that you’ve been on the case for several months, how would you assess your team’s chemistry, cohesion, etc.
“I think the guys genuinely like each other; I don’t think there’s been an issue that way,” he said. “I think there was too much separation in the segments of the team, too much, ‘Well, we did OK at our spot, but this group is killing us.’ It’s all one unit. We’re making progress. I think it comes from the coaching staff.”
To summarize, just about every new head coach wants to change tempo and culture. Whether changes stick is determined to great degree by the group’s character in sum, and also by the method and diligence of those seeking to make change.
Nearly every large unit of people will have dissenters.
The net effectiveness of the change is determined largely by how effectively dissenters are swayed, muted or run off. The shaping of this psychology is determined in part by external forces, like perceptions from the outside in, perceptions from the rank and file that each player has of himself, coaches and his teammates, and how those from within view or let affect them what they take to be the perceptions from outside (Ignore them? Work off of them? Resent them? etc.).
Addressing this is not as easy, of course, as coaches saying, “Hey, ignore that,” or, “don’t think that way.” It takes more than that; it takes leadership and merger of a do-what-I-do and do-what-I-say approach. My take: this is part of why Johnson sometimes has been known to get snappy with media (I take this as a good thing as it’s easier to engage coaches like that in reasonable, if sometimes charged, dialogue).
More from Johnson, on the effects of perception:
“To me, it has something to do with the perception of the media. If every day you pick up the paper, and it says the defense is carrying the team, or the offense is terrible, by game five the defense believes it. Now, the offense has copped an attitude, and maybe the offense ain’t all that,” he said. “You just can’t function that way. It’s got to be one team, and the way to do it, and the assistant coaches know that’s a pet peeve of mine [in taking care of one’s own business and not working as if each unit has to do something special for fear another unit will fail].
“If that’s what you’re hearing all the time, that this side is [bad], and these guys aren’t any good … as a player you don’t want to hear that it’s so and so’s fault. A lot of times, it’s not anything that has to do with the team, and you’ve got to fight it. If everybody is telling you that Reggie Ball is the reason you’re losing, everybody wants to believe that, you know, ‘It can’t be me; it’s got to be him.’
“I think dealing with people’s emotions, and getting them to buy into something is important. There are some guys that are never going to completely buy in, but you’ve got to get them to at least neutral ground. As a general rule, I think everybody values themselves more than [others].”
As Johnson noted, there are exceptions. Some people aren’t selfish enough.
“There are some guys who are tough on themselves no matter what they do. [Former Georgia Southern quarterback] Tracy Ham was unbelievable that way,” he said. “He was going to take more blame than he ever could have done as a player. I had to find reasons for him that it wasn’t his fault even if it was. He was so hard on himself he’d beat himself up. He was such a perfectionist. But those guys are few and far between.
“The thing I try to sell to those guys is that we’re going to have to win some games 6-3, and we’re going to have to win some 46-43. They both count the same, and if you’re going to be any good, you’re going to have some of both.”
How about that? Invoking the best quarterback he’s ever had, and the most controversial Tech quarterback in memory in one conversation, without provocation I might add.
Dig the depth and texture of this man’s thinking.
Matt

What a refreshing change from all the politically correct drivel that many coaches spout , including the former head coach at Tech. I’ll say this for Johnson so far, he certainly * sounds* more like a real coach , one who has got a plan , and is not going to accept anything but the absolute best from his team. I think Tech could have hired themselves a darn good coach. Time will tell.

Been actively engaged in GT Football since Bobby Ross, and firmly believe that CPJ will be the best HC ever at GT. No disrespect to Chan Gailey, who is a fine man and guided us through some difficult times (probation and flunk-gate) and will hopefully become an NFL head coach again soon. But, PJ is the perfect fit for GT. Right approach, right attitude and right system.

What I find ironic is that in Paul Johnson’s offensive system, Reggie Ball may have been a decent college QB. He was certainly a nice runner, in fact some of the best games he had were ones where he became an added dimension to the offense as a runner. Lots of running, a handful of high percentage passes against single or broken coverages. That’s an offense that would have suited Ball’s abilities. Sorry Reg, CPJ came 5 years too late.

The CPJ interview sounds like an interview with a loser. He will last just a little longer than Bill Lewis.

Ramblin Wrecker - Sorry, but I have to say that Reggie Ball would NOT have thrived under CPJ, b/c he wouldn’t have even been on the team for long.
As many who are close to the program know, RB had a lot of raw talent but refused to watch extra films beyond those mandated (even when the 2nd and 3rd string QBs and the whole O-line did so on a regular basis). He basically thought that he was great, and simply refused to do ANYTHING extra off the field to improve himself or get ready for opposing defenses. People who say he ‘left it all on the field’ just simply don’t know about how he REFUSED to prepare properly, and let his whole team down in the process.
One more example: the staff arranged for special ‘coverage recognition’ coaching for Reggie……who then refused to go to it.
All the above, combined with RB’s tendency to shrug off important losses with a disrespectful “Yo, dog, it’s only a game”, would have had him sent packing in about 2 minutes flat.

I’m happier than I’ve been in years! One of Bobby Dodd’s strengths was his willingness to talk with the press, and tell the truth. Paul Johnson has that same, shining quality. The press is going to be happy, too, because a coach’s honesty and willingness to open up helps them write good articles. You’re going to see a lot more games won by the Jackets, year by year, than you’ve seen in the recent past.

I’ve been reading about Paul Johnson since Spring Practice started….and I really like his take charge approach. I could never tell if Chan Gailey was the head coach or just the CEO. If Coach Johnson can convince the players they can be winners, that’s halfway to victory. Those players who say after losing that “it’s only a game” won’t last long in the Paul Johnson regime.

Some of you older guys may know that Bobby Dodd had a saying(there are three things that can happen when you pass the football and two of them are bad). Maybe Paul Johnson believes this also. At anyrate Dodd did not pass very much and he did OK against the SEC and UGA in particular.

Generally agree with what Johnson is saying and trying to say but there are some differences or at least they were’nt in the article. First, since the ship stays afloat or sinks by the total sum of the thought process then it helps to have the producers over produce while the younger or less experienced people are trying to produce. Sometimes it makes sense to question things and it does’nt have to be made public perse. In military terminology no pun intended, it would have helped the world and freedom if one underling had put some better ideas on the table when Germany and later Communism were peaking. A President should have a strong cabinet that has some disagreements eventhough they are kept private, as it’s better for the President productivity. So I like what I’m hearing from Johnson on we’re all in this together so we better talk about it. The key is to listen to various things ..results of games, results of recruiting, and yes fans should be heard too as well as other things.

What is clear and refreshing here is the focus on psychology. What do we think of each other, what is our own self-image, our personal goals, our capacity to think of the other guy. Any leader knows this is where the cause is won or lost. No talk about ability, experience, the competition, the things all fans talk about. Johnson is saying “lets look inside ourselves first”. Gailey was a fine man, a fine coach, a super recruiter but not a communicator.

Thank God and Greyhound that Chan was, finally, ran out of town. All you Tech folks that tolerated Chan and made all these lame excuses for him are part of the problem. Face it…Chan Gailey sucked.

Surfrider, I have to disagree. When a coach starts worrying about what fans or media think, and starts listening to them when they dissent, he is as good as done.
Why should the fans be heard? What could they possibly add? Too many cooks spoil the stew.

I love the utter absence of coach speak. Chan used to bore us with the aw shucks mentality and the same old same old “we’re just not executing” junk. I can’t wait to hear Johnson’s post game interviews, regardless of wins/losses.
Let’s not forget that Reggie was 18 when he was brought in here. He was formed, good or bad, by the coaching staff. I believe that he would have succeeded under Johnson because he would have been in a different environment for 4 years. You’re right, that “it’s just a game” drivel never would have come out of his mouth. QBs are reflections of their coaching staff.
Don’t forget that when Gailey asked if he was worried about getting fired his response was “it’s just football.” Kind of telling isn’t it.
Now, we have a coach who only talks about playing hard and winning. I hope this group of players reflect his “go get ‘em” nature as much as Gailey’s players reflected his non chalance.

2 degrees of separation - In addressing the reggie ball issue, any tru tek fan knows that RB is the illigetimate nephew of Herschel Walker. Reggies daddy is Herschels brother Billy. I’m thinking that RB had such an up and down career at tek because he had DID like his uncle Herschel. Herschel would never claim him as his nephew because he was illigitimate. That was the preacher “personality ” in Herschel coming out.
Anyway, Herschel was far better than Reggie ever thought about being. Probably because he had 12 different people playing for him in any one game. No wonder he could do 2000 situps a day.
CPJ is a helluva coach. Teks problem is that all the great atheletes want to go to Georgia. Hell, for that matter Georgia State will probably start out recruiting tek in the metro area. I think Georgia State should take teks place in the acc and let tek join the SEC just to serve as homecoming fodder for the rest of the conference.
Better yet, CPJ is used to coaching in minor divisions, let tek go to Div. II-A. That is a good fit. Then they could play in-state schools like Valdosta State or West Georgia and create a good rivalry.

mowreck and bartbuzz - That has been our problem the past few years, we forgot our plays, we forgot how to execute. CPJ has his work cut out for him. So much damage has been done to our program now it will take years to get us back to respectablity in the ACC.
The ACC is not the SEC and We are for sure not the University of Georgia.
I ask myself and anyone else who will listen, why can we not be at least as good as the Univ. of Ga.? Academically we are far superior, Atlanta vs. Athens?(duh), Great facilities and living quarters, better job opportunities after graduating. Has it been our coaching, recruiting, what?? What p** me off even more is that Georgia fans will buy Tech season ticket package when we play them here. Why don’t we give our team this kind of support? A Tech grad couldn’t buy a Georgia season ticket package if he wanted to . There are none to be had. We have to advertise ours.
I hope CPJ can work a miracle or 2. If obama can make it as far as he has so far I think anything is possible.
Thanks for listening to my frustration, but I love those Jackets

I know the GT fan base misses George O’leary. I realize that Tech won a co=national championship under Bobby Ross, but O’leary put Tech on the map. There was great rivalry between the Dawgs and Jackets, and people actually enjoyed watching Tech football because George always fielded a good team.
For the sake of Tech, the ACC and their rivalry with Georgia, I hope Paul Johnson is as good as advertised.
To the O’bama supporter, is O’bama really irish rather than muslim, and are he and O’leary friends or related? I’ll hang up now and let you answer.

Paul Johnson, “psychiatrist”. You tech fans are loving this guy right out of the box, but you really don’t have a choice. Y’all are soo excited that he is going to work on the teams self “image” and their self “esteem”. I guess he’ll be “thinking out of the box” the next thing you know. I heard that Coach Johnson already has Oprah coming in to do a show with the players out at rose bowl field.
CPJ is a decent coach but he is bush league. Tech will probably be in the middle of the pack in the ACC and end up back in Boise at the Humanitarian Bowl…..again! Like another writer I ask myself (not that I care) what is wrong with Tech. They have a great athletic program in everything except FOOTBALL
Chan was right, they just can’t execute. I think all your players end up down in cabbagetown after practice smoking weed and crack. Tech was never one for dicipline except when oleary was there.
Reggie Ball was your savior every year….until after the first game. Reggie wasn’t a team player, he wasn’t a team player in high school. Someone earlier said Ball would have thrived for CPJ…negative! CPJ would have been rid of reggie after minicamp. For Reggie, it was always about R E G G I E ! If you don’t believe it ask some of his team mates. Steve Spurrier said Reggie was one of the most complete QB’s out of highschool he had ever seen, but Reggies problem was not physical, it was emotional. M E vs. team.

To listen to fans does’nt mean to do what fans want or to listen to anthing does’nt mean to do. That said a college football coach is part politician these days look no further than Mark Richt, Bobby Bowden, etc…They have a sense of what the fans want, it’s not rocket science…good defenses, good recruiting, exciting offenses. Listening to game results is important. Tech was ranked low in passing offense last year. Our QB was close to last in the conference. We had some young receivers with potential and a Qb with a good arm but things did’nt hee and haw yet we still tried the same plays. Recruiting was never ranked high the last several years with one or two exceptions, yet Gailey era did develop talent that is very admirable to their skills in that regard. A politician does’nt have to do what the people want but needs to listen to the people. I for one am excited for Johnson because he is determined and something tells me if our triple option gets stuffed he will adapt to open it up. Again listening is different than doing, yet it may bring into focus tactics that reach several objectives…like I think the triple option will be exciting, our passing game will improve and yes the bottom line will improve for the AD dept.

The most important thing is that CPJ is a proven winner. He just refuses to lose, he understands the team concept, and he can flat out coach during in-game situations.
Gailey was a CEO, Johnson is hands on. At practice Gailey used to sit up in a golf cart on the hill, Johnson gets in everyone’s face.
And Johnson doesn’t live and die by the running game, he adapts it to however the game is going. He understands winning a game 6 - 3 is the same as 48 - 47. We have a winner, I just hope that Tech fans are patient.

I guess it’s just the nature of blogs but I wonder how many of you have ever actually coached, even at the high school level? And you deem yourselves “experts.” (17 years here, schooled by the great St. Pius legend, George Maloof, God bless him!)
Paul Johnson is a good fit at GT and will win his share.
Most of Johnson’s comments reported so far are learned in Psychology 101 or Philosophy 101. Did you guys blow-off those classes?
GT will win sometimes against UGA but never consistently, at least not until we institute a “playground engineering” degree. Sheer numbers will grind us down.

The irony drips in this blog. PJ is for real, and the psych 101 references and focus are all things he got from the absolute master of motivation, Erk Russell. We Georgia Southern people know you’re getting someone special. You’re getting an infusion of GATA, TEAM-me,and unity that served Georgia and Ga. Southern well for years. Y’all DO realize that Erk got GATA from you guys, don’t you? Even though I’ll always pull for UGA over y’all, I know PJ will have Tech competeing and even beating UGA from time to time.

Well, I for one actually (more like regretably) think that PJ will be a good coach, but there is a silver lining to this whole “Paul Johnson to Tech” scenario. With all the current brown-nosing going on from Georgia Southern fans over CPJ, I’m hoping they have all jumped on the Tech bandwagon, and FINALLY jumped off the Dawg bandwagon. Tech fans, you have NO idea how annoying GSU fans are. They just get in the way, and then they pretend they actually went to school at Georgia (or now, Tech). Maybe they can invade Atlanta on game days, and stay out of Athens for a change. Tech fans, Have fun dealing with those losers. But hey, I guess yall need all the fans you can get.
