Mack Brown’s perspective on Bowl season makes you think twice

This won’t matter here with the people on this site! I def understand what Mack is saying. I think It’s silly to turn down a bowl game

 

[Juancane]

But we have idiots saying we shouldn’t attend

 

[Ethnicsands]

Those kids obviously ain’t $EC.

 

[bobshrum]

a vacation and gifts, can't complain

 

[canesarchitect]

So it’s not about the extra PRACTICES?

You'd have to be an idiot to turn down a bowl. And here's a novel idea: Let's prepare and try to win it!

I honestly never thought about that. Missing Christmas in the Marines definitely sucked.

 

[tcgrad1014]

Alright Mack. I get that.

 

[Lokest]

It makes sense for lower-level teams but shouldn't apply to miami. The standard here should be NY6 or playoffs and that's what you expect to play for every year.

I don't have a problem with meaningless bowls because I enjoy watching football, but what I do have a problem with is that being the program's new standard.

Win = practice more and play another game. Get better.
Win = kids who don’t have much support get to feel the love of some holiday festivities.

People that come from dirt and make something of themselves understand that it isn't a meaningless game. It's the piece of **** emotional fans who feel like **** Enos and Diaz and hate Robert Knowles so everything gets the same energy.

Perception is a great word!

 

[jed1250]

Doesn’t matter what we think, a lot of the kids played hard, inexperienced and got their *** whipped a few times. But hey I am glad they are in a bowl and hope they win, and hope like **** we get better

Mack this is America not some third world country. Your players are gonna be ok presents or none

@JBCanes-NC says Mack Brown is right as usual.

when you live in Miami, not a lot of destinations are that special. Especially Shreveport.

 

[Kempo Cane]

It would be nice if Some of the players didn't treat half the regular season games as meaningless.

Mack Brown sounds like he believes he recruited kids from the orphanage. ”Give us a medal because just look how much we do for all these poor, disadvantaged, deprived kids with no homes and no where to go!”

Get out of here with that crap. UNC and brown don’t do in home visits at group homes or orphanages. They go into these kids homes, meet their families, eat their home cooked meals on visits, and shake hands. All those kids have families they go home too, especially the holiday season. And the “rare” few that don’t (the Jimmy graham situations” have teammates that would take them in, because many teammates become defacto brothers.

Mack gave an answer that helps brings profits into the system, and I see many of you are eating this up.

Facts are, college football is a year round “business” and these kids are forced to practice during holidays and ALL summer or else those scholarships will get pulled. There is no such thing as going home for P5 football players.

How’d you like that Virginia beat down they gave your boy Roy?
