Have you ever considered reading The Power of Positive Thinking by Norman Vincent Peale?

The thing I like most about Skip is there have been no big scandals regarding his players. Either he is doing an outstanding job of recruiting young men of character, or he is doing a good job of convincing them to behave while on his team. Perhaps it is some of both. I also hope that he is inspiring his players to perform in the classroom. Wins are always welcome, but I hope Skip is helping the young men to prepare themselves for the reality of life after football.

Now, the thing that I like least about Skip is that he insists on calling the offensive plays. The coaches on the field have some of the worst seats in the house. Our university president and athletic director spent $22-million on a new press box. Skip should let an offensive coordinator use it to his maximum benefit. It sure as heck did nothing to improve my game-day experience.

Great points pro and con. No scandals, word is his players love him, and seems I heard Tech players' graduation rate is very good. I'm sure this is high on the list of "have to haves" with the key Ruston decision makers. And while we don't know every factor that went into Jaylon Ferguson's decision to put off the NFL dollars to come back, it says a lot of the bond that is a reality within the locker room.

Including T1's excellent analysis regarding Holtz thinking too much, Holtz admitted this in a press conference after the UAB debacle. I just hope that part of the course correction is to allow a young gun gunslinger to start calling plays. He can still manage the game, manage it even better IMO. Are you reading this Skip??

Honestly, all Skip needs to do is schedule a Google Hangouts/Facebook Live session ONE TIME with the LouisianaTechBBB crew here and we will give him the master game plan, right? Yeah, you right.

It's game day brothers. See you all on ESPN+. GO DAWGS!
