Speaking of Ireland, Ray......I stumbled across this recording artist earlier this year by accident and immediately was enamored by the beauty of her voice and singing. Short bio: Sina Theil is a German born, Irish based multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter and winner of several Irish music awards and “Rising Star of the Year 2022” awarded by the late Maryann McTeague Keifer at the American Celtic Listener Supported Music Awards. She started playing piano and composing her first songs at age 7.
Gatorrick22- man, the ending on that game was something else. Forgot that was the bomb from Franks special. One thing I noticed in that game was the tackling, OMG. It reminded me of that 1995 game against Nebraska. We couldn't tackle to save our lives. It was like the other team used grease on their unis. BEAT THE UTES! Go Gators.
I have no idea why coaches fail to understand one of many truths about football... tackling, especially in open-space, is a diminishing skill that has to be practiced/sharpened throughout the year.
