Coach Talk

Hogie's Hero's
You know what, Hogie's Hero's, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. Deploying a starter with zero points (Albert Okwuegbunam), while still earning the W... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists. We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Pogues Mahone
You can take solace in the fact that your generosity this week didn't go unnoticed. It takes a true winner to help someone like Hogie's Hero's succeed... and when the time comes, maybe they can do you a solid and return the favor. Keep pushing forward, Pogues Mahone!
