DOOG Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 from the Redskins blog..... Gregg Williams is in mid-season form. After special teams work, the offense and defense shifted to separate fields. The first task for his charges? Up-downs. 40 of them in all. After the last rep, Williams shouted out, "And that's 40. Welcome back." Then, after issuing instructions, players walked toward their position coach. Williams barked, "We don't walk here. We don't walk here." Players broke into a jog. Man I would love to play for this guy...I so hope he becomes the next head coach...the fire he has for the game is great! No wonder the guys love him...he absolutly insane and intense!:notworthy :logo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsevier Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 He is definately a motivater and even though that sounds rough now, I think by Decemeber it will pay off with a few big turnovers by his unit. HTTR! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsindaUSAF21 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Up-downs, haha, I love it. I hated those. Yea i hated those too but the worst were the leg lifts..... especially when you had to keep your legs up for so many mins at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsHokieFan Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 40 up downs in this heat Damn, GW isn't messin around The animal trainer in form Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Williams wants guys that don't come into camp to get into shape - they already come ready to go. Look at the offseason acquisitions on defense including Andre Carter and Adam Archuleta...........these guys are poster boys for being in shape and not needing coaches to motivate them to show up ready to play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeSkins Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 40 up downs in this heatDamn, GW isn't messin around The animal trainer in form Well, to be honest, 40 up-downs isn't going to break anyone's chest or back, but it's a funny thing to do to professional athletes.

Cdowwe Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 I hated up downs. I love how these million dollar players get treated like dirt, its what builds character and is necessary in football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeresaE Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 We were there and I watched the D do the up-downs. God, it was brutally hot and we were just standing still watching. Can't imagine what it felt like for the "D" to run through that drill. Once the O and the D split up, Williams and the D were totally on their own on another field. Gibbs stayed on the main field with the offense. It's obvious he has complete faith in Williams to run the D on his own. Funny image - Danny boy was in a golf cart in a long sleeved dress shirt with a tie. A bit much considering it was near 100 degrees on the field. Couldn't he at least have worn a golf shirt? I don't think I've seen him in anything but a dress shirt and tie, no matter the weather. Fans near us were psyched watching the "O". One thing that surprised me was how big (tall) both Campbell and Collins are in comparison to Brunell. Bugel was right in the middle of the action when the team ran some offensive plays. We stayed about 1-1/2 hours because it was so hot. Warning to anyone else going to camp this week - bring lots of water or Gatorade. You will need it. Also, we were able to move pretty close to the fence even though it was already filled when we arrived. People come and go quite a bit, so if you're patient, you can make your way to the front. And so it begins . . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
