When we played USCjr, we had that great first half, everyone wanted to attribute the not-so-good 2nd half to us letting off the gas, thats not what I saw.
I saw a team that was playing hard and playing physical. They got down big and could have laid down but fought hard, and the remainder of their season showed a tremendous amount of passion and toughness.
Maybe it was just me but I was super impressed. I think if anyone could change Spencer Rattler's mindset to be more team oriented, it would be a guy like Beamer (or Heupel). If Rattler buys in I agree with you, they could be very dangerous.
