Stephens reminds me of Bud Kilmer
All about the wins, titles, and rings
Education only mattered in the living room

I can handle profanity but lmo don't cuss like a sailor and follow it with the Lord's prayer.

There were times when I thought the players were soft when it came to tough love.

As far as the cheating goes I'd bet it happens a lot there. How many colleges would let you take or redue 18+ tests at the end of the year? The guidance counselor even indirectly hinted at the fact they might not play by the rules.

I hated the end. Where I grew up if one of our players gets jumped on we all goin in. No matter the consequence. The coach looked foolish wanting to fight people but his players can't defend thier own.

Good documentary though.

The cussing like a sailor is a part of the job. Havent seen 1 yet that doesn't do it. Also guys the way he relates to his kids may not be the same as CBJ he has high risk harder to relate to kids. Some of them only relate to his style and process it as tough love.

I agree completely on the substance. I know the TV crew doesn't care about it but you never see him actually coach up any of the players, or speak about X's and O's.

Do you think for 1 minute a coach is going to allow a tv crew to videohis Xs and Os. Gys lets use common sense. It would be a easy resourceto scout if they did.

It's a well done documentary. It's really sad how little so many of them even try in their classes.

What's even sadder to me is how we have a system in place that allows these players to pass classes when it's so obvious they're not engaged in learning the subject matter whatsoever. Most don't even seem to have a basic grasp of the English language (they have to use subtitles for the show for God's sake and they're supposed to be speaking English!).

Agree. It's part of the dumbing down of America.

He better learn how to catch because he couldn't hit water if he jumped from a boat...but dude has some wheels for sure.

Yeah he balled out in one game against the worst opponent on the schedule. I was shocked that Auburn took him honestly.

Side note: I noticed in one episode that the woman who is in charge of keeping the players eligible had an orange coffee mug with a power T on it. Is she originally from Tennessee?

The coach is trash - I won't ruin it for the people who haven't seen it but in a couple episodes he showed his true colors.

I saw that coffee mug as well, I think in one of the earlier episodes. Maybe a gift from a coach coming to visit, I'm sure we've definitely recruited some kids from there.
