I agree he doesn't appear to be the same demonor he possesed earlier (years past)...confident, resolute, even fiesty at times....... but I don't think it is from ignoring the problem or lack of caring. He appears to me more somber, possibly defeated. His words don't seem to ring the some tone.....they appear hollow. Maybe it was because of the bad beating, the bad season or maybe because he sees/knows his tenure is coming to end and in a bad way. I think he knows but just can't/won't say it.
