I would love to hear his comparison of athletes after he has been here about a month.

Here is a write up on him from back in 2009:

http://toledo.scout.com/2/832580.html

Here is the opening paragraph:
The Toledo Rockets football program is hard at work with winter workouts right now and the program has a new Director of Speed, Strength and Conditioning. His name is Rick Court, and he comes from what is considered one of the best strength and conditioning staffs in the country.

I'll take it.

ETA: He played baseball at Michigan State and describes himself as 'juice man' on twitter. Looks like he'll fit right in.

[Political Hack]

I like that he's coming from a big time program. Hope he's got an in-your-face attitude.

[messageboardsuperhero]

Looks like a good hire.

"Courtmade" ...doesn't have the same ring.

"Courtappointed" ???

[hailmari]

What does he bench tho?

[Barking 13]

Holding Court..... watched his video from OSU.. yep, he's one of those guys...

So urban just gives up his S&C coach? Surely if he was great urban would have been able to keep him. Although i do believe DM may have had a previous relationship with this guy in Bowling green so maybe he wanted to work for dan instead of urban? Just seems a bit odd to me.

He was the assistant S&C guy at OSU. Nothing strange about it.

This guy was an assistant S&C coach at OSU. So it's a promotion for him.

[bgover4]

That makes a lot more sense then. Thanks for getting me straight. With that note, sounds like a great hire.

[smootness]

Has been the head guy before, though...at BG, Toledo, and San Diego State. Tough to evaluate strength coaches, but his resume seems about as good as any, I guess.

And Bracky just petitioned congress about launching a steroid investigation into the Miss State football program with your juice man comment.*

[mjh94]

use to love that show


Just not:

372

[bully99]

Probably not good to associate the words juice man and strength coach together, less anybody get any ideas.

[BulldogDX55]

He looks like a thumb, which is a requirement of all S&C coaches. He'll fit right in.

[preachermatt83]

Yes!! I like this... a lot!

[Dawgowar]

This.

Or:

COURT RENDERED

COURT MARTIALED

Court of No Appeal!

Get in your face, motivate, and earn the respect of the kids....
Im sure we will know pretty quick if he can do these things since Social media rules the world...
I like the hire..

[sbcmortgageman]
