Stanzi's agent, Jack Bechta, connected him with Martinez because of how highly Brady had spoken of the coach. For two weekends after the college season, Stanzi lived with Tom Martinez and his wife, ate meals in their home, and studied DVDs of Brady's mechanical drills. He heard all his strident sayings about the position. "The longer the stride, the more time you waste,'' Martinez said.
At one point, Martinez told Stanzi: "I'm not always going to be with you. You've got to remember this so you can correct yourself when things go wrong. You've got to be able to coach yourself.''
