Intriguing article about Garrett as HC, why he's not a "puppet"

Overall, I liked it. This "Jerry and friends" (what I called them) pair of coordinators is now downgraded. Linehan is a guy that Garrett has worked with, and Garrett probably said Kiffin was no-go at DC after that LOL season. However, one of the statements in the article is definitely false:
Garrett copies the approach Aikman used with the media in his playing days -- be as boring as possible.
"Then he became an announcer and people wanted to know where all this personality came from," Garrett said last summer of Aikman. "He always had it; he just didn't show it to everyone."
Is "perpetually concussed" a personality? That's the only thing I can think of with Aikman.
