meh130 1,043 Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 My thoughts: I agree that CGM should not tolerate fighting etc. I think CGM still sees the impact of Duke Williams issues on the 2014 and 2015 teams. I think the Duke issues may have impacted JJ's mental state from which he never recovered. Regarding AJ, we will have to see where he lands and how he turns out. If he becomes an all-star and top NFL prospect, then perhaps CRG's coaching methods can be questioned. If AJ flames out, then it is likely not the fault of CRG that AJ transferred.

cole256 17,038 Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Depends on the situation, but if we are kicking guys off the team for fighting this goes hand in hand when other teams say we aren't tough or they could look at us and tell we didn't want a physical game as the game went on....it's football....you fight. Heck you even fight in basketball you're certainly going to have fights in football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck you even fight in basketball you're certainly going to have fights in football I agree it depends greatly on where the fighting occurs as to the effect it has on the team. I could see where a fight breaking out at practice where tempers flare could correlate to the toughness of the players and the fight in them. On the other hand if a fight breaks out among teammates somewhere else on campus or off then to me it's not a good sign. That's makes it personal and that's a completely different thing.

Based on CGM track record, I imagine it was an off the field incident , especially since the other guy is still on the team . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lala 327 Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 I do think that team chemistry is very important to all successful seasons/teams. The coaches have to constantly have their finger on the pulse of the locker room and sometimes there is addition by subtraction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you're going to use quotation marks on something I didn't say. What I will say is you're an idiot if you don't think fights will happen when guys are competing with each other for something they have dreamed of and they spend more time with each other than with their families and testosterone and adrenalin is pumping most of the time they are together and they are playing a contact sport....I mean you like to argue about dumb stuff but this is extra dumb....you must be counting on people to pop up and agree with you because they don't like me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AU64 10,122 Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Guess there is fighting on the practice field which erupts in the heat of the moment...and which is sometime tolerated by some coaches if the guys "let it go" once they are done with the scrap. But off field incidents are different in my view and probably in Gus's view too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger 8,817 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I was an athlete at one point in my life and was involved in fisticuffs outside of the court a couple times over the years. Would I be considered a thug? Not needling you, lion, just trying to understand. I never took you as as a blanket statement kind of dude considering you dive deep into the details of certain topics to help form your opinion.
