SC League 2019 Coach of the Year

So for this award, we are looking just at lineup decisions – not GM Roster moves or anything like that. Like Golf, lower your score the better. Here’s the formula…

1 Point: Lineup call that cost you 50-99 points
2 Points: Lineup call that cost you 100-199 points
3 Points: Lineup call that cost you 200-299 points
4 Points: Lineup call that cost you 300 or more points
13 Points: When a single Lineup call cost you the game

Before we get to the stats, here are some observations…

Christopher Albert Tansuche, through the first 10 weeks made only 3 total mistakes. Unfortunately for Chris, the bad call in Week Five (Starting Frank Gore over Josh Jacobs) cost him a game against Jones. If he makes that decision differently, he’s 7-6 (perhaps taking Kaiser’s 6th playoff slot) and Jones goes 8-5 and the whole playoff would have been seeded differently.
Chris and Matt tied for fewest Total Lineup Miscues with 9, however, neither of them finished in the Top 4 because the mistakes they made were so costly.
The average number of Mistake Points per week is 30.6, with the fewest coming in Week 10 with 10. And the most came in Week 2 with 54.

Here’s a look at the total points…

#	MANAGER	MISTAKE LOSSES	POINTS	50-99	100-199	200-299	300+	TOTAL MISTAKES
1	Kronner		14	6	4			10
2	Jones		23	4	6	1	1	12
3	Tim		25	10	2	1	2	15
4	Kaiser		26	4	9		1	14
5	Chris	1	26	3	5			9
6	Trigger	1	29	1	6	1		9
7	Jason		30	8	8	2		18
8	Kyle	1	35	5	7	1		14
9	Matt	1	40	9	7		1	18
10	John	2	49	11	6			19
11	Steve	2	50	9	6	1		18
12	Dave	2	51	7	6	2		17

Oh, I won! Woot Woot!

Goddamn, I’m good at Regular Season Coaching…we’re not gonna talk about that Championship Game though.

So what happened here, well, aside from my win, here are some other notes…

This looked like a 2-horse race between the Sanchez boys until Weeks 12 & 13 when Dave went all in and snatched that last place position away from them both.
BE A MAN HOGAN is the perfect example of a great GM overcoming sub-par coaching. Not once but twice, John made decisions that cost his team a game, yet he still made the playoffs and led the league in points scored.
Timmy finished in 3rd place here, with a respectable 15 missteps. The problem is that not once, but twice had singular decisions that cost his team over 300 points.
Tim and John also led the league in minor miscues – both with double digits miscues of under 100 points, dying the death of a 1000 cuts.

I wanted to go back and start backdating some awards, but the data for this no longer exists.
