Coach Talk

Brain
Deploying a starting crew that earned more than 162 points this past week... we consider that to be a job done right. Let's keep this momentum rolling as we move on to our next challenge in Week 11.
The Demon
Take my word for it (as a coach who's frequently lived life on the hot seat)... You can take comfort in the fact that there's always that gritty Graduate Assistant gig open at the community college down the road! Keep pushing forward, The Demon!
