Morale boost

Cliffs: Started the rule in the 80s to make sure he looked older than the players. Kept it because it showed dedication and sacrifice. Removed the rule this summer to boost player morale during covid. But he could bring it back if the team misbehaves. Finally, he’s hip and cool, now.

Sounds to me like he's feeling the pressure and grasping at anything he can to be successful this year. Good for him.

It’s only been maybe 10 years that players in college started doing it
Before that it was the blonde hair deal

Coaches today biggest deal is relating it young kids
Times are different and that’s half the battle especially with social media

As long as they're still required to button their unis I'm good. We don't need to start looking like State out there.

Not sure how you got this from the article.

Sounds to me like he saw these guys having a rough year and wanted them to have a little fun.

I've always thought Arkansas players looked pretty shabby.

I didn't read the article. I'm just going off the decision and the timing. I think it's a good thing and a good sign.

This is idiotic.

ugh? Grasping at straws to save his job has little to do with letting them have chin pubes

Or it could show that he's willing to change things and is hungry to win which is the way I see it.

I really just think he wanted his guys to have a little fun in a year that hasn’t been any fun at all

Mainieri is a clown. Couldn't "coach" a good little league team.
