Just found out the 6 a.m. fb workouts have been changed to 5 a.m., starting next Monday morning (2-19).
Anyone know why? My guess is it may be to "weed" out some slackers?
I think we're still working on instilling discipline.
Yeah, I think it's great. HCNC and CSM are sending a loud messsage that the guys can work hard and get better or clean out their lockers.

My head coach was a Coshata Indian and was one tough SOB........
my coach use to take us to South Texas in the middle of a draught and drop tractors and bails of hay stuffed with money on my dad.
Then coach would fire up a Chesterfield, drink a fifth of Johnny Walker Red, beat the crap out of us, and refuse to let us see a doctor.
To make matters worse, we had to walk 100 miles back to school during the night.
Boy I loved that old coach. lmfao
[quote="ATTALLABLAZE"][quote Needless to say we were tough, in shape, and could rip the head off a armadillo with our teeth.......

We had to carry our coach back. And he made Wayne Bolt look like Paris Hilton.
I am telling you guys, Callaway is going to find out who wants to play and win real fast. We might not have the most talent in the conference, but the kids who remain are going to play hard or be gone. Honestly, I think many of our best players are happy to see a hard nosed coach at the helm. I am really excited about where the football program is headed. The UAB faithful who are turning their back need to meet this coaching staff and hear their vision. The Callaways are quality people.

We didn't even practice football during practice. All we did was stand there and let our coach run over us with his Bronco for 5 hours every day!

My football coach was Chuck Norris. Our practices consisted of him roundhousing us all day. Beat that.

My coach was Roseanne Barr. We had to listen to and watch her sing the national anthem -- while she was naked -- when she was at her fattest. As she sang, Tom Arnold molested us.

I knew that there was a reason why I did not play football :coffee2:
So here's a high school fairy-tale:
My coach's name was Greg Craig. Dude was about 6'1", 350 lbs. Dude was roly-poly (or so we thought). He literlly bent every bench bar we had (could bench 400+ easy and often). I remember during 2-a-days, this ol' fat guy would stand by the garbage can during 2-a-days, laughing as we would all run to the can to puke our guts up after his "continuos motion" drill (it was the front rolling for 20 yards that usually got us).
He had a metal cage he'd welded, about 4' high by 3' wide, and divided the team up into 2 groups lined up opposite one another on opposing sides of the cage. Then we'd line up, facing off in a 3 or 4 point stance and hit each other as hard as we could inside of this "box." Nobody stopped until 1 person was pushed out the other side, or the whistle was blown. He even got more creative, added tires, pylons, etc., and placed the football in the center of the cage, and have 2 guys racing for the ball through this obstacle course and then smacking each other in the cage. Dude, those were some days... I wonder how many dad-gummed concussions we all had after that?

Hey! I was on that team. I was second-string halfback. What position did you play?
Are you still getting those boxes of chocolates from Tom every Valentine's Day, too? ... And did he send you Roseanne Barr's latest CD, "Roseanne Sings William Shatner's Greatest Hits", for Christmas? Man! That gets tougher to explain to the wife every year.
I was serious, our coach was really an Indian and he really did that.....
