In order to have a great rivalry, ... you've got to have two teams that are beating each other, and it's been one-sided. So I don't know.

As a coach, you've got to do what's best for the team. If guys don't like it, they're going to leave. If they stay and don't like it, well, your team's going to suck anyway. Even if this happens, you still have to do it. You can't coach worrying about any individual.
