or, instead of whining about the problem...and blaming others. be part of the solution, take some accountability - and responsibility - have some self pride - and get it done.

****ing millenials.

You mean like Baby Boomers blaming literally everything that’s wrong with the country on Millennials? So much accountability

Did anybody hear Coach Doug Mathews today mention "this offensive staff with Friend, Neidemeir, Martin and Weinke and now Chaney?"
Did he let some secret info slip or was he wishfully thinking?
If you go to the podcast and listen in at the12:15 mark, you will hear that line.

He did let it slip. I went back and listened to the podcast.

No i was asking if he got bad feedback or something he could decide to enroll somewhere as a GT, if he didn’t have an agent...even if he played in the Senior bowl

They won't let you play unless your going pro. Not going to take a spot from a draft eligible player for someone that may not go pro

I’m on mobile and can’t tell but two things....

1. I am disappointed in the Vets around here not educating him more quickly ;) I see two posts, you guys are slacking.

2. sneaker that guy is about as connected as my dog when it comes to anything UT. He is and always will be one of the biggest jokes around here and anywhere when it comes to UT. He is a borderline stalker who has in the past sent “love letters” to recruits. Look up Sabannochio Jesse Scroggins and that’s all you need to know.

lmao thanks for the education.

Not sure but there's no indication that he's doing anything but going pro.

next time you decide to take a social stance, or about a controversial subject....

make sure and share it on football message board. so we can converse about it.

yes it was emotionally charged. not sure what you expected when opining on baby boomers.

typical millenial response. spew ********, for emotional response. wait for said response, then hide behind 'reason and logic'.

and yes, i stand behind 20 hours a week as a stereotype. it was a humorous slant on things, during my rant...but...

ive work with and managed millenials. so, ive witnessed that 'work ethic' first hand.

anything else?

Lol at work ethic being generational. The only thing that is truly generational is each generations own infatuation with its self. Which you obviously exemplify that.

I don't need my generation to categorize my identity. I do that on my own.

I'm stuck in between millennial and baby boomers I guess. That being said the baby boomers seem to be the light hearted ones. Grew up in an easier time, less competition. Entitled to something because their parents were the greatest generation. But yet they expect respect for nothing.

Expect a blue ribbon cause they grew up, bought a house and kept a job. When in reality all they did was get a life.

The generation issue is comical to me. There's good and bad in all.

Guess who raised the millennials? We're all about accountability here for the coaches and all.

Generation X is in between. I am not an expert on generations, but it seems to me it it is almost a de facto grouping and sometimes a little arbitrary.

I am at the end of Generation X, and most people in Generation X are children of Baby Boomers. While Baby Boomers were the children of the Greatest Generation, many came from nothing and made money and improved families.

I don’t recall the term “millenial” being used until the last 8-10 years. I always heard it as Generation Y, which is synonymous with millenial. The thing I have observed from people younger than me is that they can’t stay in one position for a long time, but the technology age problem has influenced that.

Life has typically gotten a bit more comfortable for each generation going back decades, maybe centuries. It’s only natural that each generation is a little less tolerant of discomfort than the generation before.

Boomers blamed everything on gen x. It's the circle of life.

Yep, my dad thought we were soft and entitled, then my grandad said the same about my dad.
Same as those on here (either side). Not saying anything their folks didn't say about them. To their face or not, it was said.

"Up hill, both ways" syndrome.

Conversation today really makes me wonder what exactly my generation will end up hating my grandkids’ generation for and whether we’ll think they’re a bunch of sissies or hooligans.

Either way those damn whipersnappers will send everything to hell in a hand basket for some reason or another...I can just feel it in my bones!
