Is this guy really arguing that racism will not effect team morale? Riley Cooper's "saying something in a moment of anger" definitely effected team morale. Do you think a team in a sport that is dominated in numbers by minorities would be okay with having an outright racist on their team?In today's world EVERYONE is offended by something, many times in an attempt to be viewed as a victim.
It's not just the loss of DA that has me worried, it's the loss of 6 senior Abacks, 2 sr Bbacks and 2 sr wr's. That's a ton of experience lost and the loss of DA just compounds it. If you're still thinking we can just plug in a bunch of noobs and "coach 'em up" in time to replace 11 lost veterans, just look at the complexity and perfection of execution in the following series. Oh, and we lost Shaq Mason, too, but I guess we'll just plug in somebody there, too.
The bold part is the catch.I forgot to mention the one up-side here: Nathan Cotrell will see the field sooner. I think he's going to be a game changer once he learns the O. I've never seen anybody at Tech since Kelly Campbell that can run like that.

While I am wrapping my dull mind around this -- there are lots of reasons I like this board and this is an example of one of them -- I am fairly certain that even young football players know a word can be a noun or verb, depending on use. As much as I can appreciate an exposition of meanings, origins and word roots, it veers far afield when what we set out to do was drain the swamp and all that. (I am not about to crank up one of those meaning-of-athlete ad infinitum exchanges. One and done so to speak.) Regardless, it begs the question of equal application of rules as writ by the head ball coach and the effect on team morale.The word discipline means to teach. Some people simply equate it with punishment but that is rather dull minded. If I am disciplining someone I am using a method that best helps them to learn a lesson. The word disciple, the root word for discipline, means someone who learns.
I have seen evidence that CPJ uses different methods to reach different players and does so out of understanding who they are and what they need from him to learn the lessons they need to learn.
Understanding a play as it's written on paper on the comfort of your couch in the comfort of your home on a sunny summer afternoon and knowing what to do on the field in the heat of battle when the crowd is deafening, the defense is howling and jumping around, the qb is calling audibles and the game is riding on how you execute your given assignment on the very next play are two worlds apart.I'd be shocked if he's not engrossed in the playbook!
Just think how bad it would be if there were a serial killer, better yet a Muslim extremist! #rightoveryourheadIs this guy really arguing that racism will not effect team morale?

We all know how many horrible racist white football players are roaming around. Especially the ones that were once cops!Is this guy really arguing that racism will not effect team morale?

I struggle but cannot imagine team unity, all things being equal save one, status, if Player B, a gunner on the kickoff team, is sentenced to four trips on the stadium steps and a one-game suspension for exactly the same violation as the starting QB, who is told to go and sin no more and see you for Saturday's big game.
If the puzzled and now disaffected gladiator and his three-deep teammates ask the question, "Exactly what is your policy?" do they expect the answer to be, "Depends on what you mean by the word is?"
This parrot is no more!Looking at the two main AJC stories that came out on the same day, I think we are much better shape than if Dennis remained in the team, but Snoddy's recovery was not going well - not to mention the other players who are returning from injury. As Monty Python would say " Always look on the bright side"

Not even Dwyer once he got behind the front 7??I forgot to mention the one up-side here: Nathan Cotrell will see the field sooner. I think he's going to be a game changer once he learns the O. I've never seen anybody at Tech since Kelly Campbell that can run like that.
I agree with your earlier post that about the concern we had a whole batch of fourth and 5 th year seniors at bb, ab and receiver who were very good at the end of the year.The bold part is the catch.
