Title: How many Big 12 HCs could do 20 pushups in a row?
Post by: DQ12 on July 16, 2015, 02:30:19 PM
Let's get the obvious ones out of the way: Strong, Swagwood, Beaty for sure. Hell, Strong might just be the strongest coach in the country, pardon the pun.

Gundy and Horsewomen probably could as well. 

Rhoads?  I really don't know.  Could Stoops?  I'm guessing not.

Certified weaklings: Snyder.  Patterson. Briles is probably too old to crank out 20 good ones.


So here is my list of coaches who could do the most pushups in a row:

1. Strong (45 shups)
2. Ryan Swagosling (40 shups)
3. Beaty (34 shups)
5 (tie). Gundy (21 shups)
5 (tie). Holgerson (20 shups)
6. Rhoads (17 shups)
7. Stoops (14 shups)
8. Patterson (11 shups)
9. Briles (8 shups)
10. Snyder (0 shups)

You really think Rhoads could do more than Stoops?

stoops looks pretty out of shape to me.  plus i'm guessing stoops has like, 7 or 8 years on rhoads, but i really have no clue.

this would be a really fun little event at big 12 media days.  could be kind of embarrassing for the certified weaklings though.

Briles looks like the kind of guy that does 50 every morning before his coffee.  :dunno:

Also, he looks like he might weigh 160-175.  It is feasible that he could do pushups all day and never get tired.

Does it count as 0 pushups or infinity pushups if you are so fat that when you lay on your stomach your arms are already in the pushup position?

Yeah briles was definitely the hardest to gauge.  But i erred on the side of him being maybe 65 or so?  i really have no clue how old any big 12 coaches are besides snyder.

this is a good question but your analysis is way off imo. agree on briles sentiment, he could do 40. stoops could easily do 30. rhoads 30+. holgerson 40. gundy 30+. snyder definitely 0. patterson could do 20 I bet.

Patterson only has to go down like two inches before his gut hits the ground. He can do way more than that.

Bill has a neek follow him around with an actual cord because the extra battery weight required to go cordless is too much for his system.  Honestly, I am surprised he walks up and down the tunnel on his own.

Absolutely not.  Briles and Swagoshling are the only two that can, I bet.  Maybe strong.  I mean, he looks very strong, but that muscle weighs a bunch too.

Very squat and compact, though (Smart, that is).  Doesn't have to pull his body up as far to complete a chin up.

So looks like we have a winner and its Holgy, because there is no rough ridin' way Holgy doesn't have "enough" coke.

I know!  I was going to say "his" instead of typing "Briles" a second time, but then I thought people might think I meant Briles could do 20 push ups on top of Bill's prone body.  That would have been really inappropriate.  Apt analogy, but wildly inappropriate.  I am a mod on this blog, after all.

Wait, "prone" is on his stomach, not on his back.  So, it's still not the best image of LHCBS, but maybe I was not at risk of as egregious of a grammatical error as I initially thought.

GPat has a massive front porch and t-rex arms, I'm not sure he's  physically able to do one. Also I'm guessing  Rhodes is a workout beast. He used to be a roly poly thing  but now he's trimmed out, 30+

If it was a competition, Bill would scheme a way to get all the other coaches either too drunk to function (Holgy may just show up that way) or get it some sort of fist fight where they all get worn out. Then Bill knocks out a half girl push-up and walks away chuckling at his win.

If we're talking strict chin-ups, I imagine Strong and Kingsbury are the only ones that could do one.

Denied. In this scenario, Bill would come through with at least one full man pushup. Probably two. Then he'd start scheming for the next contest.
