SFA coach blames "Millennials" for loss
Even though Stephen F. Austin played pretty well and nearly beat Texas Tech, that didn't stop its coach from ranting about how the "Millennials" on his team apparently didn't prepare enough for the game.
“The millennials today, they don’t even watch college basketball,’’ the 50-year-old coach told reporters afterwards, via USA Today. “A lot of our guys didn’t even know who those cats [Texas Tech players] were because they don’t watch the game. They’re on their phone and doing that kind of stuff.
I certainly don't disagree that people spend too much time on their phones these days, but . . . maybe as coach he should have helped his team prepare for those "cats" a little better?
So what happens when your players are texting their girlfriends during a film session? Do you call them out on it?
We kick them out of the film session and send them down to do a Hard Yard (a.k.a. a down-up every yard of the football field) up and down the football field until the film session is over.
But that doesn't change the fact that they were a) texting on their phones during film and b) then missed film because of it.
Mike Leach said cell phones were going to result in the extermination of homo sapiens--is that the one you're thinking of?
Maybe it's just a question of who was more effective coaching their millenials.
so there's a new scapegoat for every problem in the world

I'm surprised he didn't call his own team "jive turkeys."
And I hate their rap music and their baggy pants! Pull your pants up!!
