You’re absolutely right about the rise of safetyism. I just read “the coddling of the American Mind” and found it to be a great explanation of these issues.

Why Navy isn't hitting at practice

USNABSTS

I would trust our armed forces to get something right over politicians

Based on my experience with military bureaucracy, I don't trust them any more

Bureaucrats always suck

Im in the Army... can confirm

My little brother is in the Army as well and says the same thing

I’ve become increasingly more Libertarian watching bureaucracy firsthand

My experience is with the Air Force, and they seem to be the worst of the bunch

Ha, we always talk about how much more efficient their systems are.

You would like to, you would think you could, but you shouldn't.

Will not hitting in practice effect their play in Mondays game?

WJCougar

9/2/20 10:32pm

Sure it will. Their top TE won’t have torn his Achilles.

All-American

Too soon.

Didn't tear his achilles due to contact. Poor take.

Oof. That line about our coaching staff

letthewookieewin

9/2/20 10:45pm

My apologies, but I watched you guys against USF

USNABSTS

9/2/20 11:23pm

Yep. That about covers it.

Betruewhiteandblue

9/2/20 11:51pm

Ouch. That’s quite the indictment.

maizecoug

9/2/20 11:55pm

Well it's true. I was there in person seeing the EXACT same thing. Frustrating!!

CObluezone

Well said

MaxxPower

I had wiped that from my memory and now you have to reopen that wound??

Not blaming you. It’s a harsh reality for us around here.

letthewookieewin

9/3/20 7:28am

Ouch. Paper cuts and lemon juice, but absolutely true. SMH

That was the worst defensive coaching spectacle of my football life.

Big Daddy D

9/3/20 8:40am

Yep, unfortunately I attended the game too...just glad for the comp'd tickets

TampaBlu

This is why we call it a prevent defense, it's our specialty...

tony

9/3/20 12:16pm

I'm mostly worried about our defense not being ready to stop Navy.

WJCougar

9/2/20 10:45pm

We have five very small OL, and a brand new QB

USNABSTS

9/2/20 11:28pm

Dang. We know our coaching staff is often completely lost. Didn't know how

JackTripper

You’re right about U. Maryland in the late 80’s

I wondered if there was some issues keeping Navy from hitting

Go Navy!

Honestly, I didn’t care for UMD when I was there 2016-2018.

Too bad about Moldy, for some reason I looked forward to reading his vectors.

Sounds like you need to double the normal Clay Davis fee.

So a bunch of Lib Karens want to "Oversee" the Naval Academy. Typical !!

Wow, your interpretation of that post vs. all other interpretations is pretty stark.

Do you understand the complaint here?

If I could say what is really on my mind about Md politicians, I'd be banned for

bald man

If we can't beat an option team with a new QB that has done no live hitting...

fulano

9/3/20 8:12am

Nice to hear you have your own U of U to deal with. "Trash Everywhere"

ochobeeguy

If BYU wasn't hitting in practice then maybe we'd still have Bushman. Kidding

I'm sorry but this sounds like a whole lot heresay and very little, in fact zero

Dwight89

I'll see your heresay and raise you some theresay.

All-American

That's not hard to believe, and pretty unfortunate
