Did the team do this in the years he beat OM? I see no problem having an early practice and letting the team have the rest of the day off to enjoy Thanksgiving with their family.
Since when has an opinion been 100% wrong?Quote:

Nobody is missing practice to go be with their familyQuote:

Common sense leadership - if you can safely make the drive take some teammates (after practice) and go enjoy the afternoon with your loved ones.Quote:

I wasn't saying people missed practice. It seems some want the team to be practicing instead of being with family.Quote:

Btw, I don't see anything wrong with it. It is a big family holiday. The kids have been practicing all summer and fall.
So Saturdays topic will be the 90 mile bus drive, escorted by the MHP that will take all of 75-80 minutes.
They have a practice this morning. Then can stay for team meal or go home. Then they drive to Olive Branch tomorrow PM (so no 90 bus trip Sat AM). It's pretty close to their normal routine. This all people bitching to bitch.Quote:

Couldn't have anything to do with Holloway-up-the-middle while Aeris and others rode the bench, until Holloway got injured. Couldn't have anything to do with Dan having done the same damn thing with Perkins until he got injured and Dan was forced to use JRob, who then made Dan look good.
Couldn't have anything to do with the Country Club.
Couldn't have anything to do with us not being able to get and retain a DC who gets positive results under Dan.
Couldn't have anything to do with the fact that OM players have been quoted as saying we have come into the Egg Bowl the last few years looking like we weren't excited to be there.
No...if there are people frustrated with Dan after Saturday, it will be because we got blown out in one game, because those people are just that shallow.****
The reason we've lost the two years is Dan Mullen. He has coached scared in November for whatever reason and has been more interested in his next landing spot than winning the egg.
Saw a Clemson player this morning getting breakfast, and I live 2 hours away from where he should be at practice.... Based on that, Dabo must have released them so they're doomed to lose against USCe....
No, no - it must be that Swinney is whoring himself out, doesn't care, and is looking for another job....yep that's it.
I thought we had practice at 10 this morning? Anyone confirm?
That's what I was told.
