Coach needs to change his attitude

Early in the game when our two guys got the unsportsman penalties, they went to the sidelines and all I could see was coaches and players patting them on the back and telling them "There there, no big deal, all is forgiven." Coach needs to eat their asses out and tell them they need to grow up and act like men. Didn't hurt us today, but against a better opponent it could cost us the game.

Biggest thing I get from this thread is that you need to be careful how you use the phrase “Coach needs to eat their asses out.” We’ve already lost one coach to that kind of extracurricular activity. Not sure I would pressure another to do the same.

I'll remind you all of this discussion if they pull this **** next week against OM and it costs us the game. Or even a touchdown.

Arkansas was playing dirty the whole game...most of the time our guys were reacting to what Arkansas was doing...

The point I'm trying to make is, a game will be lost by playing badly. Playing badly can be due to lack of skills or lack of self control. Pats on the back of men in their late teens early 20s will not get their attention.

Sideline Salad Eating has to be some sort of recruiting violation.

Depends on where on the back

You can always tell when we have won in a blowout. Some of our fans get desperate to find something to complain about.

Do you know for a fact what Moorhead said to those guys when they came off the field? He could have said “great job, mother17er. You’ll be running the stadium steps tonight, ********” while he’s patting them on the back. You have no idea what the “consequences” will be. Those things (discipline) are more effectively handled out of the view of the public. The meanest SOB I ever knew was a 2 Star Army General. When you screwed up he would show very little to no reaction. Some time later when you were in private he would chew your *** out like nobody else could. He taught me that you never chew a subordinate out in front of their peers, because when you do that you make it about you and not about them. The guy was the most effective leader I’ve ever known. I’m certain that he knew what he was talking about, too. He commanded several Army Infantry divisions, and nobody dared cross him. I think ***-chewing on sidelines during football games is highly overrated. Your original post suggested Moorhead needs to change his “attitude”. To get him to look like a monkey on crack jumping up and down and screaming at players during a game is going to require more than a change in attitude-that’s going to require him to completely change his personality.

Saban has the best response. Goes over to the player and asks, “Was it worth it?”

Where do you coach? After you win a couple of more titles you should open a college for coaches.

Quote from the SixPackSpeak Football Feed right now (if you're smart enough to find it): "Finger wave negates Harvard RB's touchdown." You reckon the coach patted him on the back?

You are so full of ****. That's not what it looked like what the coaches were saying to them at all to me.
