If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.
-- Major General Patrick Cleburne
The Confederacy had no better soldiers
than the Arkansans--fearless, brave, and oftentimes courageous beyond
prudence. Dickart History of Kershaws Brigade.

They could be right.  We have no competitionn in having the weakest mental attitude of anyone we play.  We will beat only those teams that we outclass so much the players could just sort throw together themselves and go win.  When it takes mental toughness to win, our chances go to near zero.

Yup...It's been said before, if the coaches had some fire and a little bit of craziness on the sideline then the players will take on the identity of their leadership...Those of you whom are Vets can relate.  If your leadership carries a certain attitude, the troops will 90% take on that trait and perform in kind.

And that other 10% you typically had to deal with a different way...

by all accounts and from what I've seen on the sidelines, Rhoads in no cream puff... he's loud and appears to be no non-sense

5-7 teams make bowls now. I seent it.
To add a "sig line" or "signature line": Go to your "profile" then go to "modify profile" then scroll down to where it says "Signature" and type in what you want it to say and then click on "change profile". That's it, you're done. Your sig line will only show up on your first post on each page.

But those teams are 10th in their conference in APR.

I noticed on Saturday when the team was coming out of the tunnel after halftime there was absolutely no fire at all. They showed it on the big screen and the players looked like they were at a funeral. And they were still up at that point on the scoreboard. Just don't get it.
