Strength and Conditioning...

What part about that post was false? Vandy made us look like middle schoolers. We were not very physical this past year. Way too many injuries and we aren’t big and strong enough. We need a much better S&C coach.
Vandy simply whipped our butts. All S&C coaches basically do the same crap just like all assistants. The difference in being good and bad all lies at the feet of the HC.

Yes, Vandy did whip Tennessee but all Strength and Conditioning coaches don't do the same thing and neither do assistants. The difference in being a great team is having great schemes on both sides of the ball with the right players to execute the schemes and the right S&C to whip our guys in to tip top shape to be able to dominate for 4 quarters. Offense, Defense, Special Teams. GBO

Yeah its funny because some people around here defend better than our team did on the field.

People won’t admit it, but a lot of our success in Heupel’s first 3 seasons occurred because of the scouting and recruiting that took place under pruitt.

Heupel got the offense figured out schematically which was the missing piece of the puzzle. We have to get bigger and stronger as a team, especially on defense.

I refuse to go back to the day so of hoping the S&C turns around the program's issues. I remember the hype for Dooley and Jones S&C hires and those threads went like OC or DC search threads talking about how it would stop the injuries and make our boys big and strong so we can finally get to bowl games consistently.

S&C is about 40% technique / program and 60% motivation.
I don't think the S&C people under Heupel are very good at motivating guys to get with the program and do the work.

Remember under Butch (I think it was Butch) there was a running podcast with a nutritionist that was part of the S&C program.
She was a motivator...just sayin'

When guys are not 100% confident in what they are doing, especially on defense, they tend to look slow and weak. I say this because of the additional "tendency" to react slowly and to take bad pursuit angles (which they are absolutely notorious for going) I am not sure if they knew what to do but couldn't do it, or simply didn't know what to do. Some of the boys looked lost out there a lot.

S&C, the strongest people I’ve ever known were FARM strong, let’s put the whole team on different farms for the summer plus weight training. That would be part of their nil deal
