Bengals play an elimination game Wednesday

[Coach Jeff Barnes @JeffBarnes52]

As an AD, one of the biggest challenges is understanding what athletes and parents truly want. Everyone says they want to win, but too often the communication I receive is centered around why practice is being missed, why workouts can’t happen, or why the commitment isn’t possible.

Winning is rarely about what happens on game day, it’s built in the unseen hours of preparation, consistency, and sacrifice. You cannot claim to want success while consistently avoiding the work required to achieve it.

Too often, “we want to win” really means “we want the rewards of winning without the discomfort of earning it.” When that gap exists, the blame often shifts to the coach instead of the habits.

Great programs are built when athletes, parents, and coaches all align in understanding that commitment comes before results. Wanting to win and being willing to do what it takes to win are two very different things.

We need to have an official remembrance day for Charlie Kirk.

He was born on October 14, 1993.

We need to honor his legacy and have a day just for him. His birthday.

They did it for MLK. They can do it for Charlie.

Please repost if you agree so we can get this done.

Erika Kirk: "[Our daughter said] 'Mommy, I missed you.' I said, I missed you too. She goes, 'where's daddy?' She's 3."

"I said, 'Baby, daddy loves you so much. He's on a work trip with Jesus, so he can afford your blueberry budget.'"

😭💔

[Riley Gaines @Riley_Gaines_]

I prayed through the night for this God-fearing, beautiful woman & their children. As a wife and someone who is due to bring a life into this world any day now, I simply can't fathom being in her shoes.

Erika, we weep with you. We mourn with you. We pray with you. We love you.

NEWS: Ella Hamlin has been put on full scholarship.

Hamlin was one of the four walk ons during last year’s TCU season, known as the “Underfrogs”.

In last season’s game vs UCF, Hamlin was making her debut.

Could not be more deserving
