"A Georgia Tech sophomore gave a rousing motivational speech that would make most coaches jealous. Let's take a closer look at Nick Selby's opus."

"In the spring of 2003, I crossed over the Kuwaiti border into Iraq, and I never once got a speech this inspiring. Not from I MEF commander James Conway (who would rise to the Corps's top post). Not from Division Commanding General James Mattis, who would go on to lead U.S. Central Command. Not from anyone."

As far as motivational speeches go - go see Whiplash starring J.K.Simmons, a Missoula native who is likely to win the Oscar for best supporting actor.

I saw the movie a couple of nights ago and immediately thought that this character would make a perfect Defensive Line coach.

In my classes, I often refer to motivational speeches. The ROTC kids usually burst out laughing when I mention my favorite, the "Motivational Speech" by R. Lee Ermey in "Full Metal Jacket." A movie from before they were born, but they all know it ...

That's funny :lol:

I was thinking to myself, "I said self? Why would the Grizz want to fight with second place?" To which I said, "that's simple self, Grizz always strive to be second rate, that's why there's two zz's in Grizz."

 

[Umista]

Crawl out of your hole and that's all you have? zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz?

Are the Griz ready to do better than tie for 2nd in the BSC?

Are the Griz ready to do better than finish #2 in the nation?
