What Was Jeff Faris Thinking?
You know the scene by heart. A college football coach stands there, helplessly watching the seconds tick away, the fickle finger of fate pushing the clock hands closer and closer to the moment when he is officially a loser. “Ray Goff’s sweatsuit!!!!” you think, “What must that guy be thinking???” Take for example Austin Peay […]
You know the scene by heart. A college football coach stands there, helplessly watching the seconds tick away, the fickle finger of fate pushing the clock hands closer and closer to the moment when he is officially a loser. “Ray Goff’s sweatsuit!!!!” you think, “What must that guy be thinking???”
Take for example Austin Peay head ball coach Jeff Faris, seen here in the waning moments of the Governors’ 28-6, closer than it ought to have been loss to the Georgia Bulldogs yesterday:
I don’t know exactly what Faris was thinking in this picture, but I have some ideas. It could be:
a) “I can’t believe we’re getting $550,000 for this. It’s like going out to dinner with a super model, but she insists that you let her pay.”
b) “I knew Georgia had a big budget, but I didn’t know they could actually call in a lightning strike to give them time to regroup.”
c) “I don’t know that Kirby is going to invite us back.”
d) “I’ve seen visiting teams on TV leave here with a piece of the hedges. I don’t know why they’d do that when they could walk out with a chunk of the home fans’ self-confidence.”
As is customary in these parts, we’d love to know what you think Coach Faris was thinking.
Go ‘Dawgs!!!
