Coach Talk

Griffin’s Great Team
Listen Griffin’s Great Team, I'm a "glass half full" kind of coach. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring output has slipped lately, I'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 115.36 points through Week 13, our crew has definitely proven that it's even stronger than the 90.16 we needed to win this past week!
Troy's Boys
Keep your head held high, Troy's Boys! Listen, we've been at it long enough to know that every once in a while, 10 extra points can just miraculously appear out of nowhere... and then in some cases, like this week, they don't! In the grand scheme of things, the most important thing is that you tried.
