"We've just come off a five-day break in which our coaches visited over 120 schools on a three-day recruiting venture and the players focused more diligently on their school work, strength and conditioning drills while also enjoying a little free time," said head coach Bill Snyder."Getting back to the practice field on Monday and Wednesday was a rude awakening. We were not at the same performance level as we were before the break, although I have seen some improvement in most of our special teams units. One of our major issues has been, and continues to be, the focus and intensity with which we practice. The final six practices will involve a great emphasis on that same practice intensity we are lacking, along with improvement on fundamentals, learning assignments, execution and gaining confidence in their performance."
gaining confidence in their performance."
I wonder if they taught them what exactly football is yet. Like the general rules and objectives of the game. You know, stuff like scoring and not letting the other team score.
I wonder if they taught anybody to tackle yet.
I don't know how many of you have read "They said it couldn't be done" but thats the first thing Mr. Snyder and Jansson talk about is confidence in the players.
Gotta like the three-day recruiting venture. It's probably something that didn't happen during his first go round.

I figure by the time snyder does get all the players he wants in his system it will be time for him to retire anyways
