didn't the Dline say they used the internet sCUm calling them the "weak" link as motivation to go out and kick UT's ass?You may want to pick up todays Denver Post and check out the "CU Briefs." The men do read these message boards.
lemme see here...Link to article
"We talked about how we were kind of sick of reading (on Internet fan sites) that we were the 'weak link' on the team," recalled Forrest West, a freshman from Connecticut who is now listed as a starter at left defensive end.
You may not think just bashing the coaches doesn't effect the young men, but I'd bet it does. They are a team, and that includes the staff.

I guess that's one way to look at it. :huh:Wow - so if I'm reading this correctly, and I like to think that I am, then that means that us allbuffers are better at motivating the team than the coaches are...what does that tell you about our coaching staff?
Sounds like allbuffs should earn a full time spot on the coaching staff :lol:

To me, the more important point is to be careful in what you say.

I'm tired of being bashed by my wife for leaving my socks lying around the house :lol:
I don't want players reading message boards if they're going to get their feelings hurt. This is football, not cheerleading (despite all the cheerleaders we have on this board).
Well, I think it was more of a shot at fan message boards. I doubt if reading negative **** is what motivated them. I'd imagine that they were pretty self motivated. But after their excellent performance against ut, he took the opertunity to get a jab in. I hope you guys don't really believe that you are the ones responsible for the D-lines performance! :lol:Well if Hawk won't do it, we will. DBT do you really see this as a bad thing? They saw that they were being seen as a weak link by fans, they played great. I'm sure Hawk told them internet scum aren't true fans and they were playing great, but deep down they knew they had to play better.
Oh come on man! The young man was asked a question by a reporter. What the **** is he supposed to say? Sheesh. Chill out a little.I like the performance of our DL against UT, but how about you wait til you WIN A FREAKIN' GAME against anyone of substance before gloating?
