If it doesn’t impact winning he doesn’t care

Winning?

Some of this stuff is BS. They didn’t always wear suits under Collins. Whatever. Basically, this is branding/culture stuff with different focus. None of it matters unless it drives positive results.

2-0 isn't positive?

Needs to make that “if it doesn’t impact winning or recruiting.”

2-0 isn't positive?

Yeah, but the win percentage is 1.0, which is half of 2.

A blind monkey could have improved the culture from what Collins had.

If the winning continues then Key gets all the credit in the world but it has nothing to do with wearing suits or not pre-game; the main point I was making is the suit thing wasn’t some vital thing under Collins.

I’m happy that Key dresses like he’s about to coach his son’s little league team on Saturday. Nobody’s more dedicated than those guys.

No nonsense, lunch pail mentality, a la the old Frank Beamer days at VT. I like.

"Culture" and "brand" overtook "winning" under the last coach. This is a course correction.

Agree but it is a bit of a stretch with some of the quote. They haven't worn suits since CPJ left.

Why? Team used to wear the track suit looking outfits at least part of the time under Johnson for YJA.

They were dressed up last year for road games.

A coach that’s winning can implement any change he wants - and get a pat on the back for it.

A coach that’s losing…

All show and no go, that's what that was.

Yep. If he switched them to wearing suits the message would be, "Coach instills discipline in everything we do, and that includes dressing professionally before the game."

Personally I do enjoy seeing people get dressed up but it really doesn't matter at all in the grand scheme of things.

What is wrong with y'all big crying this?

To me, depends how far he takes it. Values are important, integrity is important. A good coach builds character in their student athletes. Life is bigger than football. If he's just thinking about getting rid of BS distractions though, I'm for it.

That's the day before, leaving for the airport. We haven't worn suits pre-game.

It’s not a fashion show. It’s a freakin’ football game.
