Spring Practice Starts 3/07

Tomorrow!

 

Interesting how so many posters want to ignore how well the OL played in 2022.

 

I'm always amazed at how so many fans know what constitutes a good position coach or what exactly good position coaching even is. As mentioned before, we did well in 22 and bad in 23. Making indictments of the coaching seems to ignore the handicap placed on the team with the unexpected loss of Goodwin. That's not to say there aren't valid criticisms but there were injury and personnel factors all year with last year's line. Would love to hear some in depth analysis some time from the people who deem position coaches as good or bad...

 

All they know is that there are two of them and the line was bad last year. End of story. I don’t see us having a great line this year either but maybe solid can be hoped for.

 

Coaches are easy escape goats.

 

It’s all smoking mirrors

 

Hopefully no more fake fights.

 

A non-existent punch in the mouth can be very uncool.

 

Better than a real one

 

I’ve been around long enough to see what a difference there is in position coaches on the recruiting front. Some make instant connections and your hear kids say father figure or shows me the love and contacts me every day versus others we usually talk every two weeks. It is obvious when a position coach does not like recruiting. Kids can tell and fans can tell. Some get old and rely on reputation. Coach Prime has never made a recruiting visit to a kids home and Coach Smart and Sark made 150 plus home visits last year. Interestingly Chip Kelly made only 60 by comparison. These things make a difference in recruiting and long-term success. One simply outperforms, outworks, and had more passion and energy for recruiting than the other.

 

Phew…..crisis diverted!

 

What happened?

 

Somebody posted a fake story on X (Twitter) about a fight between Andy Jean and Trey Wilson.

 

And plenty of our idiot fans were happy to circulate it.

 

Some people just love to live in the dirt

 

Myles Graham out for remainder of spring due to back surgery. On3

 

Did they ever say what his back problem was?

 

He hurt it in high school having to carry Kendall Jackson's lazy butt.
