Kelly is putting the hammer down.

Heard that there's now a diagram in the locker room of exactly how your locker should look. I've heard that Kelly was miffed about this, but I've heard there's actually now a diagram as to how your locker should look and better look.

Wait, sorry can you restate what you said? It's a little confusing as to what Kelly was miffed at? Thanks!

Ya.. I'm confused too.

But I like coaches that expect their players to be young gentlemen. But I'm still not sure what your point is.

Yes well kelly was miffed at how messy the lockers were, because for some reason they had nott cleaned out their lockers yet, so he was pretty mad that they were messy and stuff, I did not really get the full story, this was told to me by my brother, and a football player told him this. So now he has a diagram as to what the locker must look like, and that it must be clean. If the locker is messy the players will have consequences.

Sounds like he is a perfectionist... And hopefully that will eventually translate to a perfect season.

It's called personal discipline and attention to detail. If they can't handle things as simple as keeping their personal things in order, how can he depend on them to tackle what he throws at them come spring practice. Kelly's breaking them down mentally before he builds them back up again....this is just the beginning of stuff like this.

From two friends on the team:

There is a team meeting tomorrow to discuss the official plan moving forward in the next couple weeks.

Rumors around the locker room: Camp Kelly will begin Thursday. Starts at 6:30 am. Possibility of 4 am sessions Saturday and Sunday morning in order to prevent players from going out. Also afternoon sessions. Training table appears to be in the works. Again, as funny as this may seem to us, the players are just like us in that they start rumors which may not be entirely factual. So, while there is for sure a meeting tomorrow, and they are aware they will have workouts, the rest is not known yet. I can talk to them again tomorrow and see what went down at the meeting.

Yeah. That Trident sugarless gum is lethal. I heard a guy got kicked out of class for chewing with his mouth open. Awful stuff. Kids these days. I tell ya.

"It's the most beautiful rainbow ever!"
"Do me on it!"

On topic, whatever Kelly wants to do to get this football team cruising again.

I personally find this appealing in a coach, hopefully it doesnt become too public or he may be fired for abusing the players. If your lazy in small matters, you will be lazy on big ones. Thats what she said.

I believe neutered was right on point w/ trident gum. Aspartame puts holes in your brain, and makes you shit like no other. Its a dangerous biological weapon, and I felt that it fit in well.

That being said, "Im Ron Burgundy? Go FUCK yourselves USC."

That went well. Good news cast. Especially because USC really did fuck themselves.

Having played a college sport (hockey) and having had a coach who tried the whole there's a certain way to organize your locker thing, my feelings are that there's a fine line between attention to detail and pointless/counterproductive micro-managing. I agree with no sloppy lockers, but I also think you have to treat your players like adults.

I agree to an extent, but it's all about setting the tone on day one. If we still have to hear about stuff like this in September then I would be worried. IMO, this program has lacked focus and discipline for the better part of 5 seasons, it's good to see BK setting the tone for the future.

Want to be treated like an adult? Then act like one. Keep in mind that this is all speculation, so lets let it shake out before we pass judgement.

I think you have to be careful though, really easy to create dissension. That being said I'm not nor have I ever been a coach of any sport (aside from Tee-Ball) so I'm no authority on the matter.

I remember hating a lot of my coaches in High School at 1st for a lot of things I considered petty or harsh but they all eventually won my utmost respect.
