[QUOTE="DaDodd, post: 887528, member: 4163"] I think like CEB said its can just be something that distracts their focus before the game. If what they wear is mostly the same every game or it is well known in advance then the players won't even think about it. Collins has let the players decide the uniform combinations for each game since he's been here. That means players are focusing on that instead of the game. It may not be the biggest of distractions but it is still a distraction none the less. I am curious. When did you play D2 football and when did you coach? I ask because I think kids today are just more entitled then past generations. I don't say that as a negative knock on them, just a sign of times. As a millennial I can say that my generation is more entitled then past generations. So you being around the game more than I have, I wonder if you think there is a different player mindset in generations as well as from D1 to D2 even down the NAIA. Correct me if I am wrong but I would think that an NAIA player would jbe more grateful that he gets to play college football then compared to a D1 player would have be little more entitled and could take it a little more for granted. I'm not saying he's not grateful to be playing D1 ball, just if compared to a NAIA player. I think just wonder if what Lou Holtz says is right when he says "Today's athletes talk about rights and privileges. And the players 50 years ago talked about obligations and responsibilities."
