Check out today's Park Cities People for a pretty no-nonsense commentary from coach Bennett. Usually coaches tend to blow a lot of smoke and sugarcoat the situation in an interview. One of the better interviews I've read in awhile.

Gotta love the way Coach looks at things - filling Ford Stadium at every game and chowing down on little froggie legs!!!!

Page 5 of the print version. I'll bring it to the scrimmage if you can't find it before then.

That's awesome. Didn't know Coach was born in California - thought he was a born-and-bred Texan.

Props to you, Coach. Never too early to start running a little smack toward Fort Worthless. Now go kick their tails so we can talk even more smack.
