    BBK, there have been some players that turn it on at the end. He said his tackling has been shit. LIPO

    BBK didn’t shy away from hitting. His problem was he made a hit and the offensive player typically still gained 2 yards against him.
    It's true that BBK had a different mentality.

    But I think the coaches have gotten through to Turner in that vein of 'Look in the mirror, you are fucking bigger than the guys trying to block you'

    I grew up bloodying my nose to wrestle down my older brother and his friends. You have to be a bit of a masochist.

    On the other hand, a pussy is a pussy. Hope I’m wrong🤷‍♂️

    An older brother is one of the
    great motivators and teachers of young boys especially when it comes to sports. If the older brother is an asshole like mine was then so much the better. Black eyes, bloody noses and cut lips were old hat for me well by the time i was 6.

    You can't play football if you aren't willing to do things you know are going to hurt. Turner clearly doesn't have that mentality. I doubt that changes.

    I'll bet he looks much better this year than last. I'm not saying Pac-12 POTY, but I'm saying he'll play better and be adequate, because of the coaching change. Just a hunch. He also needs to stop isolating from teammates and become one of the boys.
