ok lets see....Jackie cuts the balls off a bull for motivation to beat TU... then hangs a freshly severed hog head from the goal posts to motivate team for Arkansas game. Two wins.

meanwhile sherman is roasting marshmellows and getting his arse handed to him.

Maybe he can eat a worm before the game. Maybe one of those gummy worms, that ought to do the trick. They could all pass out gummy worms and eat them before the game. And then at half time, gummy bears to make them feel better.

Names on jerseys, names off of jerseys. Spirit bracelets. Bunsen burners. Kim's corner. Secret newsletters.

How about this- 12th man kickoff team with all walk ons. Bear Bryant and Junction. Instead of props, how about some action?

Can't we just bring in Jackie to castrate a longhorn at the end of practice?

Nothing gets a team ready to play like a few campfire stories and smores.

I'd pull out a flame thrower and let them know that if they don't play to their potential...they'll be the experiment next time.

I bet Sherman would ignite right away with a Bunsen burner. Looks like a cross between a marshmallow and jellybean. Nothing like a rock.

wow...that's...so sad.

no wonder he was run out of Green Bay.

Its rumored that Mangino tried the same motivational tactic and ate the entire experiment, marshmallow, bunsen burner and all. Washed it down with a Frosty from Wendys.

Bill Byrnes is kicking himself for not sneaking the 7-year contract into the demonstration.

Seriously, this must be a bad dream.


I read about Mack's "tactics" over in Austin every week. NOTHING is more cliche than burying the game ball from the prior game...

This is a better science experiment and would get the point across a whole lot clearer.



"This is lye. The crucial ingredient. Once it mixed with the melted body fat, a white soapy discharge crept into the river. May I see your hand, please?...This...is chemical burn. It will hurt more than any burn and it will leave a scar."

College kids are very impressionable and I think Sherm definatly knows what he is doing. If McGee whom you all love so dearly seems to find it working then i believe it is working.


Not really? Didn't McGee live and die by Fran?

McGee has will "live and die" by every head coach he ever played/plays under. And I wish every player we had would "live and die" by our coaches.

When players are not buying in 100%, it's hard to get everything done that you need to get done.

Unbelievable and highly motivating. We have sunk to a new low.

Damn cut the nuts of something with your teeth and throw a chair through the window but PLEASE NO MR WIZARD.

Come on show Pattons speech from the wovie or something. This is sad real sad.

"and Kevin what did you learn today"?

"Coach I learnt fire is hot and how to make smores."

There are stories about this all the time. Mack Brown had a funeral for the game ball after the tech game. Urban Meyer used the same "weak link" analogy Fran used a few years ago. Pete Carroll's always doing off the wall stuff. And let's not get started on the prevalence of Leach's pirate schtick.

This is a stupid thing to get worked up about. What's next, are we gonna whine about his shoes being too white on the sideline?

Also, this wasn't a pre-game speech, and wasn't meant to be motivational. It was at practice, and was meant to be a lesson. We don't need, "LET'S GO KILL SOME MOTHERF*&%&^%&" speeches every day of the week. That would get old in a HURRY.

That is gay. No wonder we play like pansies. Atleast use a Tim Allen flame thrower.

Particularly Scientific Motivational Gimmicks.
