Just spoke with three USA coaches / grad assistants tonight. Working and staying over on the west side near the campus. Had dinner across the bar and I had on my "Property of Tennessee Volunteers" shirt and one of my staff had on a power T hat. They were hitting us up about places to hang, ladies etc when they get there. I was thinking ... sounds like we're in good shape with that kinda focus.
They were all very high on Butch. One said "he's gonna bring that program back, you watch and see". What was interesting is how confident these guys were in a possible win Saturday. One was talking about how WKU was dominating the game until they had 6 straight turnovers. I just smiled and nodded. That was kinda funny. So, they really did think they have a chance to take us down.
Sorry, but I felt compelled to help them scheme a little, just to be friendly.
First, never try to isolate a WR/RB on #45. The guy covers like Deion Sanders and picks everything.
Second, Run right at #98, never to the edges. The guy is just a big teddy bear and can't tackle.
Third, #20 is just a battering ram. Pack the middle and don't worry about the edges.
...
JK about that last part.
