As a coach, you don't think in terms of what alterations need to be made to the roster, but instead of how to make this set of players be the best they can be. You have what you are given, and you have to figure it out from there.
So he did, offering a GREAT reply for what will happen with THIS roster. It made sense. In fact, he admitted 'We don't have that backup guy' so he spoke to how they would work around the problem by committee. He's a coach, and it was a coach's reply.
But it doesn't speak to what they might need to do to improve the roster. Don't take it for something it's not.
As I said earlier, your take on his words is my hope.
