The Jets are, once again, embroiled in controversy. This time it's for an alleged trip of Miami defensive player, Nolan Carroll as he attempted to make a play during their contest. Miami strength coach, Sal Alosi is thought by many to be the culprit and, thanks to YouTube and Jeff Darlington, we now have the reaction of some of the Miami players—Crowder's comments are particularly hilarious:
Some may still question whether or not the incident happened or not, but you can be the judge:
Certainly looks like more than just an involuntary leg cramp—we'll see what Mr. Goodell thinks, but, obviously, someone will be looking for a job on Monday morning.
Ya know, this would be funnier if it weren't so dead wrong. Of course, have to admit, the dialogue does give a slight chuckle in some places—particularly the "All Auburn fans should be killed" retort by the "Georgia" fan.
For the most part, though, it just amazes me how differently two sides can see a ball game.
Here's to killing Auburn, on the football field, next year in Athens!
Have to give an ENORMOUS shout to the Leather Helmet Blog as they were the original posters of the first two videos you will see below. You can draw your own conclusions, most assuredly, but it's definitely clear that the approach that Dave Van Halanger takes at Georgia is a bit modest in comparison to others around the country.
Heck, let's be real, when compared to the program run by Benny Wylie at the University of Tennessee, Georgia's program looks like a Gymboree class.
Please, feast your eyes on this training video, for the "advanced athlete", presented by Georgia's strength and conditioning coach—Dave Van Halanger:
Now, did he really say three sets of ten? Now, no one here is professing to be an expert, but, shouldn't the routine be a touch more challenging—these are football player after all.
The video above looks like it needs to be for the beginning athlete, not the advanced one and, production quality aside, no coach in the SEC is going to be rushing out the door looking for Van Halanger's regimen in any manual if this is what he's bringing to the table—hell, I can do three sets of ten!
Is he for real?!?
Now, take a look at Tennessee's strength coach, Benny Wylie, and ask yourself one question: could anyone describe him as soft?
"If you suffer as a group, you'll normally bond, and that's what we try to do. We put our guys through intense training, hard training, things that the normal person can't do—couldn't do—and we forge our guys together in the summer..."
Well, that sounds like a great idea: "suffer as a group and bond". Haven't seen too much bonding on the Georgia football field lately, could that be a part of the reason why? Just asking questions, here, because it seems that not enough light is being shined on Dave Van Halanger just yet and there has to be some accountability swept his way too.
But, no worries, right? The guys on the field can still lift with the best of them:
