That Urban Meyer line still jams in my head. "No excuses. You make excuses at the top, it spreads through your program and you can't be taken seriously."
meanwhile in Coral Gables, this tub of **** blamed US because they suck.
I despise Meyer but **** it do I respect him.
He has hundreds of great quotes, but the one that I remember most was when he was describing his QB situation this year and injuries on his team. He said "we make no excuses. We have a next man up mentality. If a guy next to you in the foxhole goes down, you pick up his rifle and keep shooting."
I immediately thought back to Folden casually blaming the loss of Figueroa as a reason we lost 7 games. The difference between a real coach and a fat gasbag is startling.
players take on the personality of their coach
and we wonder why we have a team full of wishy washy, excuse making underachievers
