re: What happened at Jerry Dinardo’s first practice that players were going to walk out?

Pretty sure he had them go full speed 20 plus plays in a row without a break. Game like situation (25 sec clock).

I remember something about this. Despite the disaster that was 1994, the defense was quite good. Good enough for Phil Bennett to be considered for HC. So, during practice, everybody on the defense kept saying, "Nobody is going to be able to hold the ball for 20 plays in a row on us."

The opening drive of the season at aTm, the Aggies reeled off a 16-play drive, and the defense held them scoreless.

The players got the message.
