Acquiring a new Discourse is a very complex and difficult thing to do if you wish to master that Discourse. You first need to be an apprentice of that Discourse and spend time learning under a master of the Discourse and to understand what it takes to be where they are. Mastering a Discourse is very difficult to do at first. There are some things of a discourse that you cannot get at first.”Discourses are connected with displays of identity:failing to fully display an identity tantamount to announcing you don’t have that identity, that at best you’re a pretender or beginner.”(9-10) In Coaching you need respect in order to gain this respect you need to have experience at first Belichick did not have this like all young coaches do. Due to his young age of coaching it took time to earn not only his players respect but other coaches respect as well. Most Coaches won’t listen to some 20 year old telling them something. But in Belihcikcs case he has been around coaching since birth and he isn’t like the other ones he is the chosen one. Since Belichick is a beginner at the Discourse of Coaching he needs to learn quick or he will fall behind and can lose valuable information on that Discourse he will not be able to display the full discourse of Coaching at first due to his inexperience at it just like with everything else you are never the best at it the first attempt. This means that he was able to learn not only under his father but his friends aswell  and other Coaches he had in his playing career. ‘He already knows so much . He’s like a coach ” (86). With this said Belichick is on the right path to becoming a master of the Coaching Discourse. At this moment Belichick gained more respect this is a very important part of his Coaching career even though he was told by some high school coach that “he already knows so much. He’s like a Coach.” this is proof that he is understanding the Discourse well and gaining trust, and respect within the Discourse of Coaching. This not only helped him learning the Discourse of Coaching but it helped his confidence due to the fact that a Coach said what he said  when he said it. Coming from a former player and aspiring coach this would raise my confidence in myself by 100% if a master of the Coaching Discourse said something similar like this to me.
