Even though it was hard, he thinks this tough time was the most important part of his coaching journey.
He feels like he learned a lot and is now a much better coach because of the difficulties.
He also said he will stick to his favorite way of playing, even if it's not always the easiest, because he believes it will lead to better results later on.
His team is currently not doing as well as he hopes, but he is optimistic about the future.
