I’m a Former college baseball playerDid anyone here ever play sports in HS and and actually get coached? We had a guy on our team named Mike but if you just listened to our coach you'd swear his last name was Mike and his first name was D*****. Mike turned out just fine.
Also, I know why TSJ used that clip but that's not even the best underwood yell job vs northwestern. During the covid year, we were down 25 vs the kitties and underwood called time out to 'aggressively counsel' the team per the commentators. With no fans in the stands the TV picked up all of Brad's rant. Based on him yelling you would think the team folded, right? No, we turned a 25 point deficit into a 15 point win
The greatest coach I ever had was my high school baseball coach. A TRUE to the CORE “fire and brimstone” type of coaching style. But oh boy…. If you bought in…. He’d sincerely do anything for you. A couple sayings of his that I still use to this day while coaching my high school baseball:
“I’m looking for nine guys to go to war with and nine guys I’d take a bullet for.”
“I hate losing more than I love winning.”
