I think it speaks a lot to how great a coach Jim Lee Howell was. Before Belichick went on his Championship tear I went on record as saying that Jim Lee Howell and Steve Owen might have been two of 10 coaches* better than Belichick. I'm probably wrong about that but I will never stop being impressed by
leaders that can empower those around them and help to make them the best they can be, hoping the student will some day outclass the master.
