Dino Babers last bought a car in 1987. Here's the story of his Cutlass...

No. They REALLY need those calories.

I think it depends on the individual and the workout. There are days in August where guys are working too hard and can't afford to lose any weight; for them, every little bit of extra good fat will help. Then there are those Wayne Williams types on the team; no matter the workout, they're not at risk of dropping below playing weight and they would be fine with skim.

Either way, love his way with words and glad he pays attention to this stuff. We've come a long way in 10 years.

That and dietary fat doesn't equal body fat.

I am so bored with metaphors. I can't get through a meeting without hearing twenty of them. Who decided that humans are incapable of understanding without silly comparisons? I blame Aristotle.

I agree - except Dino's are way above and are unique. Enjoy.

Poor Dino had to be the meat in that sandwich.

(Settle down, Chip.)

Edit - why is Delta-BravoAlphaGolf edited out of my post!?!!? When did the abbreviation for ...get added to the banned list?!

Personally, I blame John Lennon.

That front row seems disproportionally white. Syracuse should be Dan Le Batard's favorite ACC team.

I'm not sure that I like him continually using "daunting" in all these interviews.

It is what it is.

 

[ArchDuke]

That's an exciting quote right there!

[dollarbill44]

The 2% comment confuses me (they burn a ton of calories, but wouldn't they still like to avoid unnecessary fat?) but the wording of all his lines is just phenomenal. We might be in store for some epic press conferences this year.

Dietary fat leading to bodyfat is a common misconception that has been presented by the American medical establishment dating back to the late 70s. The reality is it's bunk. Fat is a necessary part of a healthy diet - our brains are fat, for crying out loud. Refined sugar, in all it's hidden forms, is much, much worse and is the leading cause of bodyfat and obesity.

I might even have the players drinking whole milk. Definitely the ones who need to add muscle mass.

Wake Forest HC Dave Clawson on Dino Babers: "There's no doubt he'll energize that program." Babers replaced Clawson as HC at Bowling Green.

I understand; we need fat, and the fat in milk isn't bad for us. It just carries extra calories, which is good for many guys during two-a-days but may not be helpful to some of the heavier players.

Just managing expectations. If we stink, he'll be able to say 'I told you so.' If we outperform expectations, he'll be able to say 'I guess I'm a better coach than I thought.'

He forgot "and continue the winning streak against us"

 

[orange79]

Dino on getting rid of skim milk at Cuse: "They're big boys. They can have 2 percent and eat their cereal right."

This is just the best. If I wasn't in love before, I am now.

 

[djorange1989]

are you sure? I keep hearing about Wake being on the rise. Like last year, the year before, the year before that.....

[djorange1989]

It is what it is.

9 of the 11 games FBS against bowl teams. eighth toughest schedule in the nation. Lagging far behind in talent and speed compared to the majority of our opponents. The most winnable FBS games (Wake, BC, U Conn) are all road games. All that being said, do I have faith? Hell yeah! It is indeed daunting in year 1 for Dino and company but there is no one I want running the show and facing the daunting task more than Dino. Can't wait for the season to get going!

Oh, ESPN. Great fact checking on our points per game allowed.

Holy crap, FHCSS's defense really sucked.
