Fanatical means daily urine testing, mandatory weigh-ins before and after every practice, personalized water and Gatorade requirements and one extremely serious “hydration chart.” Drink up or pay the price. Any Texas player caught without a water bottle on their person is sentenced to 10 up-downs, right then and there. Skip one of the weigh-ins, Texas strength coach Yancy McKnight said, and that’ll be 20 up-downs.

Yea, it's funny to us, but think of the condition staff that has to take 105 pee samples once a day!

On a serious note, the stuff later in the article about how closely they are tracking these kids is ridiculous to me.
