Clemson has earned bids to the College Football Playoff each of the past four seasons, meaning more eyeballs on the program, but also meaning more time in the film room,
colberttiger Thanks for posting that; I hadn't seen it.
I can testify to being in situations where people: "over think it"! Be one thing to over think it; but they go on to over do it to the point "it fails"!
The Patriots are consistent winners because they have what Bellicheck calls "The Patriots Way"! I don't care how you do it over there; "this is how we are going to do it"! People know it and they feel it at Clemson from parents to players! Coaches being told, "it's okay to go to your kids game" and nobody looks at you side-ways is huge. People on my job and probably many of our jobs sometimes feel they can't take a day off b/c they may let the team down. All the while forgetting about "the team at home"! Which will eventually lead to an unbalanced life. Once that happens your work performance will ironically ultimately take a hit!
They say happy wife happy life. I don't really agree with that personally. But, the principle is true. If a person is happy(for whatever reason) they will tend to be more productive. Be willing to work harder. Be willing to sacrifice more. Steal their happiness and the extra goes away!
The fact all this was happening even when CU wasn't winning NC tells you a ton as well!
