Points for working "Geyser Falls" and "myopic" into the same sentence.
Most importantly.... bumps and bruises but still no injuries.

Wow! A practice where player family and loved ones were invited to attend, followed by a meal. Very nice touch! We are family! Hail JoMo! Hail State!
So, the offense has been installed and this offense picked it up faster than any other JoMo has coached? I like the sound of that.
His pressers are so much better than Dan's. He seems genuine and honest whereas Dan kinda come off like a jerk.
FIFY.Quote:

I just hope he has a clear understanding of how good you have to be to win in the SEC West
We had more talent than Penn St last year and this year as well....Of course, Barkley was a special talent.
I couldn't be moor-excited*
That whole presser is industrial strength wool grow.
And it does make sense about the offense installation b/c we have more talent on offense except for maybe Barkley.
Can?t say that is what I took from his body language. I do believe he is impressed with the talent and the effort that talent is putting forth.Quote:

Mullen?s neuroticism and the way he acted probably makes JoMo seem like a stand up comic.
I will say Joe seems like he is getting more comfortable. He is friendly and approachable. Something Mullen struggled with.
If the players attitudes are the result of that, it probably does explain why they are picking up the system quickly
I love this guy. What a breath of fresh air.
Still gotta win games but as of today, <17> Mullen.
Swedenberg said Mullen was about as motivational as NyQuil most of the time. Even if he beats us on the 29th I'm not gonna miss him at all. But I think Joe is gonna burn Grantham's secondary like yesterday's garbage.
Am I the only one that noticed that Dan essentially gave the same pre-game speech before every game?Quote:

In the spirit of full disclosure, I was a huge fan of CDM, and was disappointed when he left (Very disappointed). That being said, I am extremely excited with what I have seen so far, and yes, JoMo's personality is like a breath of desperately needed fresh air. It all started with my favorite coach of all time, The Kang!!, hit a speed bump with a Croom, then CDM took us to another level; none of us should minimize his accomplishments. Time will tell, but our optimism appears to be well founded.
Lets be honest for a moment Swedenberg is a punter. Mullen wasn't really talking to him anyways. What can a hyped punter do? If he gets too hyped he'll outkick the coverage. Is he the punter that would shank the s***t out of a punt occasionally?Quote:

Cool, I don't remember punters.Quote:

Truth is even hardcore fans like you don't remember the name of punters initially. I'm not ashamed to say I could care less about a punter.Quote:

Maybe I'm naive, but I have a very hard time believing that any players outside of flat out assholes or the low-IQ, athlete savant type can have that kind of nonchalant disrespect for a teammate, regardless of their role.Quote:

If you're practicing for 3 hours and meetings for an hour and a half and a certain group of teammates practice for 15 mins and meet for 10 mins they have earned very little respect. There aren't many punters/kickers that make themselves one of the guys by intrigrating themselves in that way. It's not disrespect if you're not putting forth the same effort. Football is all about togetherness through tough situations.Quote:

He wasn't paid to be liked he was paid to win football games(which he did for the most part). Obviously your team has to respect you but they certainly don't have to like you. That being said, I am pleased with JOMO so far and am still trying to figure out why every post discussing JOMO turns into a Mullen thread.Quote:
