Coach Talk

Vandals
Hey, exploiting mismatches is the key to football, right? Fueled by stellar performances by Aaron Jones and LeSean McCoy, our team certainly made that a point of emphasis this past week. We thoroughly outplayed Team Tadlock at running back (57 points to 22.5). Jones had 172 total yards and two TDs, while McCoy logged 118 yards and two scores.
Team Tadlock
Don't get too distraught, Team Tadlock! Trust me on this one (coming from a coach who's experienced life on the hot seat)... You can always fall back on that pro-bono Assistant Coaching gig available at the local Pop Warner team down the road!
