In 10th grade I read Holtz's book about that season, and that was a big emphasis for him. Weis has gone to Lou and Ara for advice in the past, I hope he talks to them a lot this winter.

Yesterday I read the spring of 1988 team speech given by Holtz and he addressed this issue in no uncertain terms. He also addressed the team chemistry issue in 1988 which has and is a problem in 2007. To be a champion requires commitment, a team mentality and focus. I am not sure that these exist currently on this team. Part of the problem might be this un-named establishment and others that are frequented by players and recruits.

I had a hunch it was him. God knows Sullivan wasn't a leader, neither were Thomas or Carlson. Here's to a good 2008 season! GO IRISH! Beat Duke! Kudos to Sam Young . . . I had a hunch it was him.

A close friend of mine happens to work in a establishment that the players frequent often (this will remain un-named). He talks with the players often and even considers Laws and Zibby friends. Now here it goes... My friend talked with an offensive lineman and was told that during practice, the offense line looks awesome. He then stated that soon as the game starts, there are certain players on the o-line that shit their pants! He stated that they even come into the huddle with a blank look on their face. Hmmmm. Apparently, the players have not given up on Weis. One thing that was said was he is a dickhead in the lockerroom, but the players still think he is a good coach. I was told a good story about Geoff Price. Price had told my friend that when he was struggling at the beginning of the year, Weis was all over him and really pissing Price off. Price then told my friend that he just had enough and ignored Weis. After that, Price started looking like a punter. Guess Weis got his results. Oh, and Evan Sharpley is apparently a arrogant, all-about-me asshole. Sounded like the players were more behind Clausen than Sharpley. There is more, but I'm tired of typing for now.
