SB21 Posted January 16 Posted January 16 Can’t really blame it on him. Training them is one thing. They make their own decisions and listen to more people form their inner circles I’m sure than just him 7 1 Quote

cdibbs Posted January 16 Posted January 16 Not his fault, but does seem to be some interesting issues correlating between those 3. Quote
TheContractor12 Posted January 16 Posted January 16 See your point in Cool and Hudson , not saying it’s his fault. Stewart has been decent for Oregon right, not sure his numbers but starting and producing positively? Quote
HookedOnTF Posted January 16 Posted January 16 (edited) Skills training might help shake a DB, but hopefully there's a mental training component too - learning the playbook, being a good teammate, accepting 5 or fewer targets per game, chasing greatness in the craft over media likes/followers and the biggest paycheck... Which seems to be part of Texas' eval, and I bet something Sark and Hooks have discussed. Edited January 16 by HookedOnTF Quote
FatherofMinky Posted January 17 Posted January 17 (edited) I agree. Margin Hooks was posting some noise after Cook left Texas about how great Cook still is etc… if I’m not mistaken. I would say based off the track record of his latest trainees, he doesn’t instill much of a sense of accountability, humility, mental toughness, or work ethic in the young men he’s training. A coach is there to provide the mental guidance just as much as the physical guidance to ensure success of the student 🤘🏼 Maybe I’m being overly critical & harsh though… I don’t know much about the man except the products he has put out lately aren’t exactly shining examples of success…. Though on the flip side of course, everyone is accountable for their own actions & their own behavior…. Edited January 17 by FatherofMinky Quote
Avishai Schiff Posted January 17 Author Posted January 17 To be clear, I am not making any judgement of Hooks, just found it an interesting confluence of events. 1 Quote
jonbailey Posted January 17 Posted January 17 I think I remember someone saying that Hooks discourages guys he has trained from attending the same school as other trainees. My guess is so they can maximum targets. That doesn’t scream team player. Quote
