Bama , OSU, FSU and countless others have got to love the average Miami fan's complete lack of knowledge on the subject. Bama loves coming in taking a 175 lb Amari cooper and making him a monster before leaving. Or a 190lb Patrick Peterson ..getting up to 221lbs WHILE maintaining 4.4 speed. It's not just about X's and O's anymore champ. The S&C coach is becoming one of the most important coaches on a staff year after year. You pain UM with a elite S&C STAFF not just coach ....and it's game over. Until then we will get better and win because of better coaching and better talent but will we ever reach the point where we are playing for title number 4 in 6 years ala Bama? (Pun intended). I don't know
Patrick Peterson lost weight in the NFL because he got slow. He was a 5* corner who is a tremendous football player. Amari Cooper dominates because he's a great route runner and has tremendous football specific skills, not because he's doing magic strength training.
Your last statement told me all I need to know about your knowledge on the subject. Kettle bells and stabilizer muscles? anabolic mass building? You've read 6 or 7 muscle mags and don't realize your ignorance. Please point me to your copy of Bama, Miami or Stanfords annual plan, outlining the program goals and how they set out to achieve them. I'm very curious to see what they are doing.
I have no reason to argue with you. You don't know what you're evaluating other than wins, losses and Scott Cochran's yelling.
Wow...I'm not going to argue with ignorance. This is my job. PP was still returning punts for TD's against WV and NC at 221 lbs. stabilizer muscles are the muscles that help strengthen joints and tendons thus making players less prone to injury. You clearly DONT know a lot on this subject and are probably a regular fan who doesn't see the value in S&C. There's a science to it and I'm not going to waste going into it on someone who thinks "kettlebells and stabilizer muscles" are buzzwords.
I'm evaluating our lack of push on BOTH fronts. I am evaluating our constant lack of condition as the season wears on. I am evauating how we run over teams we can simply "out-talent" but when we face an elite program ..the physical difference is alarming to say the least. So you can keep you opinion I'll stick to mine.
Nobody said they were buzz words but anabolic mass building certainly is considering the word anabolic means to build, in and of itself, so that phrase reeks of ignorance and Muscle and Fitness, as does your 20 minute window comment which has been show numerous times to have next to zero merit.
You don't know the science. You've made that painfully clear. Stabilizers are small muscles. If the quads and hamstrings cannot protect the knee, do you think the glute med will?? And they strengthen the tendons? What? lol If the agonist and antagonist fail, I promise you that all the stabilizer work in the world won't save you.
I can assure you that kettle bells and stabilizer work are not the difference between the programs. You think some prone external rotation work for the shoulder or monster walks are the difference? That's asinine. Outside of issues with injury or nerve damage, the stabilizers are always working. Their job is to stabilize and they do that through small, rhythmic contractions, not through gross movement. Outside of a KB swing, what advantage does a kettlebell present that a DB or BB doesn't? A kettle bell isn't magic. It's a funny shaped piece of iron. It's a tool and not a special one, at that.
Football is a game that is predicated on specific skills, not general physical measures. The biggest bench press doesn't win. The biggest squat doesn't win. When you see talented kids put in a scheme to maximize their talents, you'll see our teams push people around.
For all the *****ing about Coley and D'No, very few make this connection. You think a tackle is at an advantage in run blocking while in a 2 point stance when low man wins? You think having guys 6-7 yards off the ball on run plays will help at the point of attack? We can't recruit DT to save our life and yet, we want the weight room to make the ones they get good at football? That's a losing proposition. Throw 20lbs on a guy to fit a scheme and then wonder why he doesn't run like he did in high school?
IDGAF about Swasey but this is armchair quarterbacking without even seeing what these kids do in the weight room. They can make a change. I don't particularly care but Miami's problems have been coaching for years. That has changed so I anticipate improvement whether Swasey is here or not.
Crushed. Killed. Destroyed.
Ehhh jus tired of wasting time But love yall all the same.
