-Wilson has proven time and time again that he is one of the best Coaches in the league. He can take an average team and show them how to dominate the other team.Ron knows just how to get the most potential out of all his players be them 1st liners or fringe 4th liners veterans and rookies alike. He gets his point across and does it in an educational way. He only makes his teams better and his systems work. Wilson is firm in what he says and stands behind it .He rewards his players who are doing well and the ones that aren't, he makes them realize they're not playing up to his standards.
