His approach is and will be based on building a solid a foundation with long-term vision.

#1. Build a great ORGANIZATION first (coaching/support staff). And that goes well beyond merely hiring people.
#2. Build a great SYSTEM to recruit top player talent.
#3. Build a great SYSTEM to develop team and individual players.
#4. Goals related to PERFORMANCE.
#5. Goals related to RESULTS.
