Goosebumps!! Flat out AWESOME!

Looks awesome! Can't wait till it starts paying off on fall Saturdays.

I would think this weight room would now put is in the top 5 for best weightrooms in the country. I thought I also saw on twitter that they were installing sand pits?

yup, Paul Jones said on twitter..not sure where they are going or if it is true.

I think with having Fitz we may have the best strength program or atleast top 3

Hell.

Awesome. Can I work out there? Man, the only thing it's lacking are some mirrors. It's hard for me to squat without a mirror.

Sand pits, the few time I was fortunate to use them, are one of the worst things in the world to go through.

So I am glad we're putting them in, means they work.

I was born 40 years too soon.

This guy may be a better hire than BOB!!!

If he can't motivate you, no one can.

I can't wait for the fourth quarter of close games.

He GETS the hand strength secret to tackling. You sink your hands into a guy and even if he bounces off, you'll slow him WAY down, not to mention most tacklers don't use their hands nearly enough.

I cannot help but think of what the QB Coaching position once was and shake my head.

I cannot help but think of what the OL Coaching position once was and shake my head.

Everything was a trainwreck.

Thank you! I fought for years when I was still coaching to incorporate grip and wrist work into the off season program. The reply from the head man? We aren't training bodybuilders here. I wanted to smash my head through a wall. Of course this was the same program where I finally convinced them to eliminate the static stretching pregame and incorporate active warm-ups and stretches, only to have it yanked a week into it b/c some parent with clout complained that it wasn't the way they used to do it. I guarantee you that dropped balls/fumbles/missed tackles will all go down full percentage points if that stuff is added into a program where it wasn't before. May not seem like much, but over the course of a season it adds up.

Temple's weight room is almost the identical size and layout as my local Y.
