The "old-school" way only works in places that have a long established culture/history of winning

You could not have read the article and came to this conclusion.  Meyer was way over his head.  IN fact, if the article is true he had no business running a KFC let alone a professional team. 

Read the article then comment.  If you read the article and still say this, congrats because you have blown my mind.

Read it again knowing Meyer's style of coaching/management/personality. Then you understand. That is his style and it doesn't appear that anyone has called him out on it or if they have he has ignored it. It doesn't make it a good style or right to treat people that way. Just stating some facts.

He can enjoy being a terrible human being but he can also use it as a motivation tool. For some people having a common enemy it can forge a bond and help motivate the team.
