1994 Husker Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Some eggs will he cracked in process of making a omelet...i suspect some will quit..which is a good unintended consequence of conditioning in a sense...better to expose the weak minds now, rather than 4 th quarter down 10 points. 1 Quote Link to comment
Scarlet Overkill Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Thanks for posting - i was just about to. But, i thought that would have already started by now. Quote Link to comment

In the Deed the Glory Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 That's a pretty fun article. Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 A good coach doesn't get guys to quit...they get guys to buy in. Hopefully that is what happens. 3 Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I love this part. Something we have been missing for years. I do not know the last time I felt the complete team bought in and the whole team, from top to bottom (admn, staff, players, support etc) was pulling in the same direction and shared the same common vision and goals..... January is when records start to fall and champions start to rise, when the Frost Era pours the concrete for the foundation, Rae and Marsil say. When they start to convert the non-believers and weed out the rest. “It means everything,” Marsil says of Duval’s offseason workout program. “This is where everybody’s going to be building that relationship. The quicker that they’re buying into everything, the quicker the turnaround is going to happen. 1 Quote Link to comment
JJ Husker Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I hope our guys are ready for this and that the previous apparently lackadaisical approach isn't too hard for them to overcome. Hopefully they appreciate how this paid off for this staff at UCF and the buy-in can occur almost immediately. I'm sure it will work but not so sure exactly how quickly. Fingers crossed.

BIGREDIOWAN Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I can't wait to hear what the players think of the work that is headed their way. Playtime is over, time to grind and climb up that mountain to get back to where we belong. 2 Quote Link to comment
TonyStalloni Posted January 22, 2018 Author Share Posted January 22, 2018 This part may a bit of shock to the system of a few players this week. " He misses the living hell out of. The circuit training over the winter, the lightning rounds at dawn, and the rows of trash cans next to the equipment, not so much." “You know it’s going to be a war zone,” one of Rae’s former teammates, ex-UCF long-snapper Gage Marsil, recalls. “With my old workouts, you maybe threw up that first week you’d be back after winter break. But I’ve seen [it continue]. It didn’t matter how many times you did it — there were at least 10 guys throwing up. “They’ll hear about the circuits pretty soon. It made its way around UCF real quick.” January is when the fiscal football year 2018 gets off the mat, when a program’s spine is forged in iron, sweat, blood and bile. The rote before the reward, the groove before the glory. 1 Quote Link to comment

DaveH Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I like the idea of pushing these guy's squats up. There is no reason most of them shouldn't be able to squat ~500 to depth. 1 Quote Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 good stuff.......focusing on the conditioning of the core is important, going fast is going to help too.....the foundation is conditioning, one step at a time. no magic here, anyone (coach) can do this, i would think the approach and level is the key....Frost has this figured out. 3 Quote Link to comment
Warrior Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Hearing others guys (UCF) talk about how hard it is, but how much they appreciated it in the long run really gets me fired up! Quote Link to comment
