Are there other staff present at practices? Maybe, personnel feeding balls, providing water? I guess, they would be considered support personnel?
Coaches for sure.
Win or lose; all I can ask for is a team that shows fight, discipline, and preparation. Football games are a crap shoot, as long as we belong on Ernie Davis Legends Field, I am content with the scoreboard result.
Not me. Score is kept for a reason. Everyone doesn’t get a trophy for participating. Wins matter.
No participation trophy for me. We need Ws.
So, you're saying you will not respect the team if they fight hard but lose to Louisville?
Lville losing that receiver to bama is big, but they've recruited really well so who knows net net how the talent level is now. Them coming to the dome is huge if we can have an energetic crowd.
If not now, when? Their current recruiting class is off the charts good, we have them at home for a night game, and first game of the year to boot.
Let me ask this… If given a choice would Dino want to fight hard and lose the game or play not as well and win the game. I’m pretty sure that I know what the Head Coach would choose because wins matter.
Normally I agree with this. But there is no denying that at this stage of the program there is a hump we need to get over. I don’t care how we do it. Yes I want SU to be competitive in every game, and represent the university well. But somehow we need to get to a bowl. Scratch, claw, kitchen sink, trunk monkey, fumblerooskie, annexation of Puerto Rico, I don’t care what means the coaches employ. Just get there!
Idk - if we recruited in the 40s we’d be singing and dancing.
Gotta admit, I ma gonna tune in to that Wyoming game this Saturday.
Me too. I have family ties to Wyoming so I try to catch their games anyway. But it will be interesting to see Tommy.
Who catches more passes, players inbounds or players and staff on the sidelines?
Tommy will run for over 150 yards, mostly backwards and out of bounds five yards before the tackler. He will set a Big 10 record for most intentional grounding calls.
Do you happen to have any insight as to how they are looking this year? Given the recent TD news I may be interested in betting this game.
They are going to run the ball...a ton. TD just has to keep in in between the buoys, take some deep shots and not turn it over. Bielema ball - control the clock and beat you up, don't sling it around.
