I of course don't have the link, but I think it was Samuels who said it, and yes it is the coaches telling everyone the plays. I believe, right now they are all made aware of it so that everyone can be focusing on techniques. I don't think that is a big issue. For example, initially when training on a military operation, you know the enemies goal and tactics so that you can train for that particular attack. once you have trained several scenarios the enemy is given more leeway and you are then learning how to adapt etc. Remember this is not day 31 of camp, if there is a day 31. Everyone is getting on the same page, etc.
