Still listening to it, but I am ready to run through a brick wall! He is knocking it out of the park!

"We have an opponent in this state, that we will work 365 days a year to defeat. We will work 365 days a year to dominate."

I love how he wouldn't say their name too and he has legit hate he was getting angry. THWG.

Oh man let the trolling begin. That phrase will resonate throughout social media and that will be the most “recited” takeaway from the entire thing.

Good. **** 'em.

I don't know whether to be proud that our coach is committing himself to such a drive or whether to be disappointed that he had to provide money to reach the target.

He might not have to. The campaign runs until Dec 31 and we are pretty close, I imagine his commitment is more if we don't meet the match he will make up the difference. I would bet he won't have to though (although maybe he'll make a donation anyway... that's not uncommon for coaches).

 

[UgaBlows]

My God that was one helluva presser!

I agree with that. Maybe it should have been worded different by President Cabrera. It could just be my GT pessimism kicking in

 

[SunBum]

Tell me I didn't hear him use the phrase 'high level'!

 

[UgaBlows]

Holy crap he burned Ken around 36 minute mark

 

[ramblin_man]

It will be interesting to see how much longer it takes for him to fill out the rest of the coaching staff. Says he wants the right people and that’s very important. The down side is time is a ticking. Early signing and recruiting.

 

[LongforDodd]

Any suggestions for an accurate replacement "synonym" since it seems that the previous coach used it frequently to your distaste yet understanding that this phrase is used extensively by other coaches nationwide.

Well, damn.

I don't know who should be more nervous...our opponents or our own players!

Every team is going to see us on their schedule and know that they have a brawl scheduled. THWG!

Leave it to a GT fan to find a negative spin to the new HC contributing some of his own money to the program. It's called "negativity bias" (or something like that, I've seen it quoted in different ways like "negative attention bias", too). Honestly I do not mean this as a criticism of you. It's actually not necessarily a bad thing because it's one of the ways we humans pay attention to the potential problems and, hopefully, address them or anticipate them as needed. It's when we let that pessimism/negativity bias get in the way of appreciating the positive that it becomes a problem.g

Agreed. It was ...... elite.

 

[Tadams6599]

I am fired up, this man does not want to let these kids or this program down.

Let's rock and roll. You scared yet georgie?
