Why does the media want to make it like you're insulting anyone when you say the that single parent families are hurting our culture overall? Self reliance and personal responsibility isn't too high on public policy anymore, and society views them as victims or romanticizes them. It's one of the biggest risk factors to living in poverty and becoming cycle.

Cal doesn't seem serious enough about winning to hire Kelly. Butch Jones would be the perfect fit there.

I have three kids under the age of three and a to farm run also, so I wouldn't over do this time wise or money.
Invite the coaches and their families over to a few cookouts a year, and let that be it.

I always hated evening workouts as a player and still do as a coach. It feels like it ties up your whole day to me.

Has anyone went to the single wing conclave? I've been going down that rabbit hole and it seems like it would be interesting.

The market is just people, in this case it will be NFL executives. I think they'll be able to handle it quite well. I don't think people value drug kingpins, but the legal system makes them a necessary evil for those wanting drugs. My point was (again) not that these guys are making a poor financial decision. Nobody is debating that. My point was that the I disagree with the idea that "the market" (as originally mentioned in this thread) would be the correct instrument to measure what was being discussed--whether or not these games are "meaningless" I don't think NFL executives and their draft decisions in April are the right measuring device for that abstract term and complex question. I'm strictly talking about the players and how it will effect them. I don't think it happens totally in a vacuum, so it will effect others. Coaches being the most obvious, and how the bowl effects their job security. I personally think that's something that the market has already taken care of in their buyouts.

I think there is a line. Stanford went through a rough patch in the middle of the season. McCaffery sat out at least 1 game with an injury. If he packed it in at that point of the season then I'd say there may be some character issues. The "market" will decide where the line is. When NFL teams pass on a player, that will be where the line is. Be wary of crediting the market for deciding an abstract concept such as this. The "market" values drug kingpins more than your grandmother. The market is just people, in this case it will be NFL executives. I think they'll be able to handle it quite well. I don't think people value drug kingpins, but the legal system makes them a necessary evil for those wanting drugs.

Don't give them the chance to stand around and zone out by how you structure practice. If they're not zoned in enough, give them a little PIE and get back to work quickly.

Students there are trying to erase Jefferson from the school because he triggers racism. Academics is running the show and those in power don't value or like football. Sadly Tennessee has been going down that same road. Hopefully Blackburn will be able to get Tennessee back on path. Tennessee's nowhere near what UVA is. They definitely value football and that school is a far cry from being liberal or even an elite academic institution. The Haslam family, who currently occupy the Governor's mansion, basically call the shots with that program and have for decades. The UT administration treats their football team like an ATM, though, to pay for other university services in ways that the other SEC schools don't. That hurts the Vols. I'm just over Butch, and tired or Tennessee acting like they're a second rate program.

It's a tough school academically and admissions do them no favors. So football just isn't as big as a priority there. Got it. I find that fascinating. It is such an outlier compared to the other flagship public universities of the Southeast. Really goes against the grain culturally.

THE MAIN THING IS THAT YOU NEVER ISSUE A RULE YOU WON'T ENFORCE!!! This is great advice on so many levels! Never paint yourself into a corner as a coach.

When my brother was in school he said they did naked victory jumping jacks and used the shower as a slip and slide. I just said okay and went about the other way. This is why I don't go into locker unless I have to. There's only two camps. Those that almost climb in their locker to change and the ones sliding across the shower naked.

The Trump/Clinton Defense.
Whatever the offense picks to do, it's screwed either way.

Awww I thought we were going to knock Tennessee with the classic "You can't spell Citrus without U-T" -- To comment on the original post, I think the best interpretation is what coachwilliams2 stated. I'm a Tennesse fan and I miss him. I think his personality was great for the game when so many coaches now are just film watching drones talking in cliches.

I would add Coach Shoop DC from The University of Tennessee ... He has been successful everywhere he has been... UT's defense was pretty good until they started loosing virtually every starter on defense... His biggest mistake was coming to coach for Butch and his stellar offense

Cuts one hell of a coach and was the discipline that the team really lacked the two times he left Tennessee

Phillip Fulmer , I think deserves a mention as well Cut would be over him IMO. Fulmer is the a great example of becoming complacent after success.

True but the uncommitted bring the team down in my opinion.
Then get rid of them.
If they have a poor attitude, aren't pulling in the same direction-hurting morale, fire 'em.
That or they'll start finding a few ears that will listen to their bitching and join them.

once a year? yall must be good i would have thrown my shoulder out if i still had a clipboard Oh I figure if once doesn't do it, twice won't. I never give up on the "That was OK but we can play better" rah-rah speech, though. We could win by 50 and I'd give those suckers a "meh, not bad" post game. I'm...not popular with kids My middle school coach was a "retired" high school coach that had won over 300 games. He made us run right after the game for every point we allowed but we went 18 games an no one scored on us. He still could find something to run us for after the game. He was one hell of a guy.

It takes players to make them go but if were talking scheme wise in no order Jim Harbaugh is setting new standards in recruiting and has had success in both the NFL and NCAA ill also add Joe Rudolph-OC Wisconsin Greg Davis -OC Iowa Lane Kiffin-OC Alabama Jonathan Smith-OC University of Washington I'm right there with you on all of those except for Greg Davis. Can you explain his appeal? I agree. I don't get it either.

Coach them like they're winners and act like you want to be there.
I tell my kids the scoreboard Is my judge and I'm their judge to not even worry about the score. Kids know when you're coaching them hard and they're getting better or if you're just punching the clock with them.
