Now I agree with that, but I don't agree that motivation is the same as "winning culture". You can resurrect Vince Lombardi from the dead, and he can surely motivate his players, but he wouldn't win in Houston until he's got the necessary talent. And regarding schemes (both offensive and defensive), good point and of course that's a coaching issue but that's not at all synonymous with "winning attitude" either IMO ?
We've already got players on our team who've spent their college careers at places like Miami, USC, 'Bama, etc. who learned all about a "winning culture"
in those programs, so obviously something else is missing from the formula here in Houston ?
"Winning attitude", "team chemistry", etc are all kinda vague terms used for players who complement each other on the team, have expereinced success, but first and foremost have "god given" talent. We need more "god given" talent here in Houston IMO.
