Coach Talk

Lo-Ki Winners
Props to you, Lo-Ki Winners. Good job fielding a lineup that blew the opposition out by over 24 points this past matchup. We should maintain this momentum as we move on to our next challenge in Week 9.
Far From Ma”Home”s
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 scrappy Graduate Assistant job open at the community college down the road! Keep your head up, Far From Ma”Home”s!
