Josh Heupel Monday press conference

[Freak]

On Joe Milton: We'll see where he is Tuesday or Wednesday and go from there.

Nothing finalized on Cade Mays and Kingston Harris but we believe we have an opportunity for those guys to be with us on Saturday along with a couple of guys who didn't play last week.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Seems confident about the game.

We probably won’t win but I don’t see the guys quitting.

Looking forward to the matchup.

 

[leftygray]

I like Heupel and am a firm believer that he should be given PLENTY of time. That being said, this week is not going to be a good week.

“It’s the most important game because it’s the next game”

I do like Heupel, but he needs to chill with the Butch’isms. He needs a PR guy to walk him through what we are all scarred from.

To be fair that’s pretty much how all coaches speak… he doesn’t give me butch Jones vibes at all

 

[Volbrando]

he sounds more like a coach than any of the last 4 we've had

Ummm, because what he said is true?

That’s not even remotely close to Butch.

You might be in the minority on this one. I’ll use Georgia State as a great example of how what he said it’s completely true. If he starts speaking in catchphrases and mottos like brick by brick then I’ll be worried.

ALL coaches say that.

As long as he doesn't start talking about eye discipline or being champions off the field, I should be able to tolerate the coach speak without going into a seizure.

 

[bpalmer28]

My man looks like he hasn't slept 3 days.

Yeah we’re gun shy. We see cringe bullets where they ain’t.

 

[KnoxRealtorVOL]

Eh, I remember Butch saying it a lot.

Again, not knocking the guy. I like the hire so far, I think this is just PTSD

 

[ftsandersvol]

We know we're in trouble when he starts talking about moral victories.

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

i tell you what i hear. he doesn't like florida.

 

[VolBricks]

I like that except for "Coach will Milton start this week" Heupel answered every question with a straight answer. No "Coach Speak", no "Butchism's". it is concise and straight to the point.

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

i think he might have little grudge against florida. nice to hear/see.

 

[zeppelin128]

To be fair that’s pretty much how all coaches speak… he doesn’t give me butch Jones vibes at all

Yep, pretty common. I noticed Bama's QB (Bryce I think?) used the exact same phrase in his pregame CBS interview before Florida.

I can live with eye discipline. It's the shower discipline that still makes me cringe.

 

[ButchPlz]

At least he isn't circling back to things.

 

[Dudleys87]

Well he lived in that shadow. I’m sure he’d like to prove they’re not the only thing in Fl on a bigger stage.

Nope havent seen that damn garbage can anywhere on the sidelines. That was one of the most stupid stunts Jones pulled.

 

[butchna]

What’s the history behind that grudge?

 

[Kinglberry]

So much better without the uhhs, ummms, aights, puzzled looks, blank stares, attempts to look mean or tough. Remember, Crash Davis says you gotta know your cliches. It's what they say in between them that matters more.

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

Well he lived in that shadow. I’m sure he’d like to prove they’re not the only thing in Fl on a bigger stage.

i didn't even consider that until today but, this probably comes down to recruiting florida, which he is in a position to do.
