Quotes from DL Coach Brian Baker in the morning minicamp session...

_________________________________________________

(during a drill) "I thought you were defensive linemen. What are you doing?"

(watching the guys hit the sled) "Guys, it's a blocking sled. It doesn't hit back."

(to Greg Hardy) "Get your eyes up! Don't run with your eyes down! See what's in front of you!"

(after a badly executed defensive scrimmage play) "Follow the ball! FOLLOW THE BALL!"

(another drill) "This is supposed to be a pass rush drill. Where is the pass rush?"

(in a very exasperated tone) "Can somebody please get off a block?!"

(yet another drill) "Look at the target. See the target. Hit the target!'

(said more than once, loudly) "Go! GO! GOOOOOOOO!!!"

(best of the day) "You're tired, huh? Well, you're tired because you're FAT!!!"

i think it would be more helpful to tell them what they're doing wrong and how to improve their game rather than just say they're doing crappy. is he a demotivational speaker or a coach?

he'll teach in TC. i think he was just trying to get them use to the speed of training camp and kind of give them a taste of what to expect. should be an interesting camp this year!

I doubt the players took it personal.

      Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways.

      Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season.

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
