Herbert shortly realized he couldn’t get out of the scenario.

“The more you go through it, it bothers you less and less,” Herbert stated. “I think it’s cool to have a coach support you like that. I try and say as many good things about games as possible, but I think I’m outnumbered.”

Whereas he can’t match compliments along with his head coach, Herbert is glad to repay him one thing extra invaluable: wins.
