Not sure why, but the weight room comments by Whittingham give me severe eyerollitis.

I've just heard the bullshit about our football players somehow not also being powerlifters too many damn times to believe it makes any difference. Yes football players need to be strong, and no they don't need to be Olympic powerlifters.

Anyways, it just seems like a cheap critique. If our players averaged 50 additional lbs on their bench not a goddamm thing would've changed last year.

It's all meaningless fluff imo. That kid from Bama, Payne I believe, said oh compared to Bama here at UM we're really working, and that was under the gooner Moore, who we all know now, wasn't working much of anything* - By daytripper July 31, 2026 at 04:37:28 PM
more strength matters a shit ton in football - By plug July 31, 2026 at 04:30:54 PM
- Kansas State ran for 472 yards against Utah last year. Imagine if Utah didn�t bench press.* - By MasterBates July 31, 2026 at 04:48:19 PM
  - Jay Hill wasn�t the coach.+ - By crumbs July 31, 2026 at 04:54:54 PM
    - People flipped out on the USC game last year, imagine giving up 472 yards on the ground, the board scheme experts would have had a heart attack.* - By MasterBates July 31, 2026 at 04:57:39 PM

        The upgrade on Coach Kyle Whittingham? (nm) - By suede July 31, 2026 at 05:02:14 PM
        
        Is he the LB coach brother or son?* - By crumbs July 31, 2026 at 05:03:49 PM
  - well then, I guess being strong doesn�t matter at all. I mean, there�s that one game. * - By plug July 31, 2026 at 04:51:28 PM
    - Being strong matters and there are different ways to get strong. Apparently bench pressing isn't a sure thing either. Or maybe Kansas State did it better.* - By MasterBates July 31, 2026 at 04:55:08 PM
- Reminds me of Barwis a little too much. I don't know why Whitt felt he had to say it honestly. I'd prefer to just let the play do the talking, not patting themselves on the back for improving S&C from the gooner era* - By daytripper July 31, 2026 at 04:38:30 PM
Except some players have talked about it.* - By crumbs July 31, 2026 at 04:24:58 PM
