Guarantees
We are all aware of many examples where players have guaranteed wins, but I can't think of the last time a coach guaranteed a victory during a game week. Can anyone else think of an example?

I remember when Pat Riley guaranteed a back to back NBA championship after 1987. But his Laker team was able to back up his mouth, so I can't be too upset about it.

That guy from Men's Warehouse always guarantees that I'll like the way I look.

The problem with Joe Glenns guarantee is that people are acting like it came in front of a camera lens, he looked in to it like he was staring in whits eyes and made this bold statement. He guaranteed a win in front of a bunch of boosters that supplement his paycheck.

What you say is true, junkie. What else is he supposed to say to a group like that.
Still, he can't expect it to not get back to KW. This entire ordeal has been highly entertaining.

Completely agree, I give Kyle credit for doing what coaches should do, and spinning the hell out of it. It makes for great bulletin board material and it obviously gave the Utes a little extra motivation.

If that is your suit in your avatar, Men's Wearhouse owes you some payback...

Somewhere in the how to coach book, a chapter needs to be written about just talking about football. It should be titled, "No Garantees, No Opinions, No Bending the Facts, Just Football."
