And, you will recall that we did it with Frank Maloney. Joe Paterno didn't like it because he felt that it rewarded a player for doing what he was supposed to do. I can see that. But, I also don't believe necessarily in "everybody gets a trophy" thinking. I kind of like rewarding players for outstanding plays or outstanding games. It's a nice way to motivate kids. So, again, if it works for coaches like Urban Meyer and Harbough, I'm okay with it. [/QUOTE]
