148 Standing side by side
Since last year, Lu Yiqi has worked as an offensive coordinator at Kansas State. After a year of getting along and getting along, he hastily taken over as interim head coach at the beginning of this season.
At present, it is only less than six weeks. Logically speaking, Lu Yiqi's "head coach reputation" should not be so high. But before he knew it, Lu Yiqi's influence is indeed deep into this team, changing the Wildcats little by little, from tactical arrangement to mental outlook, all-round-
The season opening game completed a Jedi reversal in chaos, achieving the most exciting reversal of the Wildcats in the past decade; the previous week defeated the arrogant and powerful opponent without being favored, and once again set the Wildcats team's historical record.
The bold attempt of tactical manuals, the wonderful skills of players' training, the rigorous and serious tactical meetings, and because of their young age, they have no airs in their daily life. They are willing to train with players, and they are willing to joke with players, and they are truly aligned.
Most importantly, in this locker room incident, Lu Yiqi never accuses the players of not shirking responsibility - including Jacob, but has taken on the responsibilities of the head coach and spread his wings to protect them from the wind and rain.
The school directly reached a conclusion without investigation, treating them as lifeless objects. Today is Lu Yiqi, tomorrow is Walker, and the day after tomorrow? It may be any of them, as if this group of players were just a stepping stone to win, fight for profit, and win chips for promotion, but they never really cared about their contradictions and persistence.
But Lu Yiqi was different. He really heard their voices. Even in the face of Jacob's provocation, he never reached a conclusion casually.
Some people stay together for life but still keep a distance; while others fall into the same situation after a few days. For players, fighting side by side with Lu Yiqi for less than two months is enough - they are more willing to stand behind Lu Yiqi than Lang Pres.
"Head coach" should not be just a machine that formulates tactics and wins.
In the crowd, Jacob noticed that Henry joined the teammates, and he tried to say something, but his voice stuck in his throat.
Looking at the bustling figure in front of him, Lu Yiqi's eyes were slightly warm, which made him feel a little embarrassed, but he still clenched his fists hard, used all his strength to suppress the surge of emotions, and said as calmly as possible, "Thank you for your worries, but everything is good, nothing will happen, you should prepare for the next game..."
Walker squatted in the corner, his muscles tensed to the extreme, as if he was being scorched on a bonfire. The painful torture was tearing his soul apart. He heard Lu Yiqi's voice again, and he could no longer bear it. He stood up suddenly and walked forward with great strides through the crowd.
"Coach, fire me! As long as you fire me, everything will be solved!"
Walker's body burst into a determination to move forward, and his red eyes were surging with violence and ferocity.
"I'll surrender! I'll tell them that it's all because of me! It's me who took the initiative! It's me who took the blame alone, and I'll just fire me! Just fire me and the matter will be resolved! There's no need to make things difficult for you..."
"Stop! Stop!" Lu Yiqi scolded several times, which made the irritable Walker stop. Lu Yiqi stared at Walker with sharp eyes and said word by word, "No one will be fired! No one should be fired! Do you understand? Reggie, listen, maybe someone makes mistakes - but everyone makes mistakes, and we should be punished for our mistakes, but no one should ruin hope for the insignificant and unworthy mistakes yesterday!"
Walker stared at Lu Yiqi, and took his eyes away in a panic, hiding his embarrassment.
"Listen! You should calm down! You should prepare for the game! You should stand in your original position to complete your own tasks! And things outside the field are not your battle!" Lu Yiqi's gaze swept across the circle with firmness and determination, staring at the vibrant faces, and finally landed on Nelson, saying unswervingly, "This is the responsibility of the coach, this is my battle!"
After saying that, Lu Yiqi turned around and left the locker room with great strides. Robert hesitated for a moment and followed Lu Yiqi away quickly.
But as soon as he left the locker room, Robert saw Lu Yiqi's face quickly approaching him. The powerful aura forced Robert to take two steps backwards, but he still couldn't get rid of Lu Yiqi. Then he found that he had no way out.
"Noah?" Robert quickly called out.
Lu Yiqi didn't say anything, but just stared at Robert coldly.
Those eyes were calm, but the violence and blood hidden deep in the depths were quietly spreading, so that Robert couldn't help feeling a chill in his throat, "What now? What should we do now?" Robert asked with a voluntary voice, trying to break the stalemate of calm.
"Counterattack." Lu Yiqi's cold voice was not at all warm, and the corners of his gently raised mouth were not warm at all. Instead, a hint of cold and bloody smell was faintly revealed.
"Roberst, since you have ignited this flame, we have no way out now. Before Richard Giesen proceeds further, we must take the lead and seize the moral high ground, otherwise Walker may be really a scapegoat, and I may lose my job."
In fact, Lu Yiqi also knew that Weather was still preparing to fire Walker, and there was no way out, but he was still thinking about other solutions; but now Robert broke the matter out, which also means that Lu Yiqi had no other choice, and going with the flow was the best choice.
Robert was originally going to defend himself, not because he had leaked the news; but under Lu Yiqi's gaze, he swallowed honestly and changed the subject, "So, what are you going to do?"
"Public opinion guidance." Lu Yiqi gave the answer.
For him, this is very familiar. After all, this is his old job. Compared to coaching work, propaganda and public opinion guidance are much simpler.
"Public opinion. Lobster, we need public opinion support, we need public opinion to stand on Walker's side, let students walk side by side with us and the team."
Lu Yiqi smiled at Robert. After experiencing an emotional roller coaster, he has now recovered his calmness, and even a little cold-blooded calm. His brain has started to operate again, and the subsequent solutions have been kept up in time and are ready to do a big fight.
After saying that, Lu Yiqi turned around and left.
Watching Lu Yiqi go a little further, Robert then pulled the hem of his clothes a little, expressing his strong dissatisfaction with a nearly whispering voice, "It's Robert, not a lobster!"
Chapter completed!
