Returning to Shreveport on Christmas is not a goal for the players. It is a punishment. If you want a game in Shreveport, umlaut you idiot.
Nice deflection. Still doesn't change facts. Even Gailey got us to bowl games every year and he sucked. Johnson got the benefit of an extra regular season game and broke the streak. What does that say? You idiot.

The thing that worries me the most, is not the loss to Citadel. Bigger names than us have had wtf losses. What worries me is that this transition of culture or whatever it is Geoff Collins says it is, was not for the better in display on Saturday. The taunting, unsportsmanlike conducts, when you’re down to a team who on paper is far worse than you, looks like we replaced our team with a öööötier version of Mark Richt’s uga. It shows a complete lack of discipline, and it’s absolutely not a product of transition from the triple option. You guys know this too, so “the biggest transition in the history of college football” or whatever is an excuse.

Young men need discipline and leadership. You may want to be a fun coach to get players, but to a group of 18-22 year olds, if you’re just a fun guy who acts like 20 year old and dresses like one, they may like you, but they don’t really respect you. And that lack of respect was on display on Saturday.
This scares me too. I'm looking at FSU and all the problems they're having with Willie Taggert. Jimbo wasn't exactly known as a hard-ass, but he's looking like a prison warden compared to Taggert right now. Discipline is what separates the pretenders from the contenders, and its a hallmark of programs like Saban's. If these kids can't control themselves against Citadel, a military school, what are they going to do against a Miami or ugag?
