Coach Talk

MNG Orlovi
Narrow wins like this can be very important for team chemistry. Persevering in the face of adversity and triumphing as a tight-knit unit... we expect the MNG Orlovi locker room to really gel heading into Week 15.
Pogni se!
Trust me on this one (as a coach who's practically never NOT been on the hot seat)... You can always fall back on that volunteer Assistant Coaching job available at the nearby Pop Warner team down the road! Keep pushing forward, Pogni se!!
