The backlash from CB every time we begin trying to suggest our players need to be stronger and faster tells me everything I need to know about our fans. There must be a balance of caring about S&C and technique. S&C allows you to do everything quicker and in a more powerful manner. Technique is how you implement these talents. Both are important. That's why it's important to have some around your program who always insist "well it's not all about being strong or fast". But when you have a jealous, little-man syndrome fan base who ALWAYS wants to knock running and weightlifting things begin to go downhill. Then you have 4th year starters with "excellent technique" who are too fat and slow to move people.
