“Overall, I think JJ has been a great communicator, first and foremost,” Vincent said. “Whether he’s raised his voice a tad, it never felt like we were being scolded, if that makes sense. It just seems more like he needed to address something that was serious, he addressed it, we took the message and applied it in the next half. He’s done a great job of communicating to the guys and getting his message across very clearly.”
