Let's be real. He's referring to taking a leap of faith with a coach he doesn't know.
He doesn't perceive himself as the risk, he thinks Mullin is lol. That's what you get with young pampered athletes
That was my interpretation as well. CO isn't alone in having that opinion these days, so I agree with you.
This happens with every Kid who "looses" the coach who recruited him. The player built a rapport with the coach who recruited him and developed a relationship as he played for the individual. The coach leaves and someone comes in who the player does not know. Anxiety develops because the player, at 20, has to deal with someone they know nothing about--what style will the new coach play? Will I fit in? Think about yourselves when you get a new boss who comes from outside of your company--you go through the same anxiety as you don't know if you will fit in; you wonder if the new boss will bring in folks he is familiar with and promote them over you; etc.
What ever he may feel justified or not he should be talkibg privately To friends and fanily that you have doubts or that you feel you are taking a leap of faith with your new boss. Saying it publicly, especially after you did a boneheaded thing that screwed your teammates, embarrased your employer, and ruined the chance to have your company succeed is quite another. It also doesn't hell that as a worker, you have not been a model citizen, and the only reason why you have stayed at your current job is because there is no solid place to go at this point.
...To be fair this is definitely a generational thing and that the millennium generations today do not see social media as a public forum, but has personnel place where you can share your thoughts. I do think it was more of personnel thoughts then a knock against Coach Mullin.
I am glad that he is back and I have full faith he will do his part for the team.
