It sure seems like our conditioning and overall strength in tackling is much worse. Agility has declined as evidenced by guys being out of position a lot on tackles.

Maybe Hester seemed better because our players 3 years ago were just better. Either way, crap has to change. I skipped 2 games this year without hesitation. That’s not me.

Man, losing him to an in-state school stings worse than just losing him outright. I pray I don't see the day when our best players start jumping ship to the likes of ULL.
there is a SC coach available . . . that has put a LOT of kids in the NFL
Does he know how to train kids to be tough and mean? Most players that come to Tech will never play in the NFL. We are going to get kids that play the game because they love it and want to continue to play after high school. With NIL the cards are stacked against La Tech. We need tough kids and tough coaches. We need more players like we had in the JRP days, I don’t think many of them made the NFL.
Apparently that's a rare skill and valuable enough for the portal poachers to recruit good tacklers year round. Remember the days of the dead period? That is a thing of the past.
JMO, but college coaches should not take for granted defensive skills that should be taught in 6th grade and earlier.
I think they kept one staff member at Texas State, everyone else looking for jobs
I think you are right.
